Solmate Socks 2021 UK Catalog

Spring 2021


To our UK & EU customers: It’s a new year,.... ......let’s talk socks. Last year was a wild ride. We celebrated our 20th anniversary in ways that were far different than we initially envisioned. Our company's 2020 journey included updating our brand with new logo, becoming B Corp™ certified, and seeing demand for comfortable, cosy socks skyrocket, far surpassing our projections. This left our inventory supply down to upleasantly meager levels by the end of the year, and into the new year. We are expeditiously knitting more socks as quickly and safely as we can. To make it easier to order during this brief inventory hiccup, in this Spring 2021 catalogue we are laying out what is ready to ship now, as well as what will be back by mid-summer. Plus we will have lots of completely new socks to introduce in September! Thank you so much for your continued support. We love seeing so many of our socks keeping so many feet warm and cosy.



Over 20 Years of Mismatched Socks

We are so excited to have celebrated our 20th anniversary in 2020! From our humble beginnings in our founder’s spare bedroom to our current B Corp™ certified, eco-conscious, secondgeneration company, we could not be more proud of our incredible journey. Solmate Socks continues to be a treasured learning experience filled with colour, joy, hard work, long nights, crazy ideas, heartwarming moments, a dedication to family, and a commitment to building a more inclusive and sustainable economy. While this year has brought more than its fair share of challenges, we are commited to maintaining the same level of quality, pride and love that Solmate Socks has always stood for. We thank you for your continued support and we look forward to sharing our next chapter with you.

We love recycled yarns Textile manufacturing produces 10% of the world’s CO2 and 100 million tons of trash each year. Thus we pride ourselves on using recycled fibres in every product we produce, having a zero-waste policy when it comes to production and making sure those practices cross over to our office life.

“Sustainability isn’t about being on trend; it’s something we can’t choose to ignore.” All across the globe, we’ve seen a rise in ethical consumerism. People are asking more questions about the products that they buy: Where is it made? What is it made from? Is it produced in a sustainable and ethical way? Knowing that fashion and sustainability go handin-hand, we understand that every action we take today has an impact on tomorrow. This is why we are committed to using sustainably-sourced, eco-friendly fibres in every product we make, allowing you to embrace your individuality without compromising your earth-friendly principles. As a Certified B Corporation, we are proud to be part of a global movement of businesses working together for a positive change. We’re leading the innovation required to deliver on the highest standards of performance and our promise to protect the planet.
