When we say "organic socks," we're talking about socks that are made from materials that are grown and processed without the use of synthetic chemicals or harmful pesticides. Usually it means organic cotton, but it can also include wool and other fibers that are grown and processed with care for the environment. These natural eco-friendly socks tend to be softer, more breathable, and hypoallergenic. Plus, organic sock brands hold certifications that ensure fair trade practices and provide a decent livelihood for those involved in the production process.
