Every sock, by the number
We tell you what
share is recycled.
And what the rest is.
Netmark socks carry a number, not an adjective. Pick any sock below and follow its material through four stages — where it was recovered from, how it was turned back into fibre, what the yarn is, and what the finished sock is made of, including the share that was never recycled at all.

- Basis 01Recycled content is measured by weight of the yarn, not of the finished sock.
- Basis 02The remaining share is listed in full on every product page.
- Basis 03We do not claim this sock is sustainable. We tell you what it is made of.
- Basis 04Source category is as far as we can verify. We do not name specific locations.
Standing statement
The line we could have left out
These have the lowest recycled content we sell. We list them because leaving them out would make our range look better than it is.
Line E runs from 12% to 25% recycled content. Every other retailer would quietly drop it and let the 84% sock speak for the whole range. We keep it, price it lowest, and show it in the same filters, at the same size, with the same treatment as everything else. A range average is not a product. The number that matters is the one on the sock you are actually buying.

Both parts of every bar are drawn solid, at the same height. The share that is not recycled is never dimmed.
The four stages, filmed
Recovered input, regranulate, yarn, sock
The same four stages you can step through above, laid out as physical material. Nothing in this film is a stand-in: shredded technical netting, regranulate, spun yarn, finished sock. There is no location shot, because we cannot verify a location.
Every number attached to these stages appears on the product page of the sock it belongs to, together with the share that came from none of this.

Four bands, shown the same way
A low band is not a warning and a high band is not a badge. The four bands below are drawn at identical size, weight and colour treatment, because presenting one as better than another would be a comparison we have no basis for.

Sizing
Measured in millimetres, not in guesses
Every product page lists EU sizes against measured foot length in millimetres. Measure the foot, match the millimetres, ignore the shoe size on the box.
Ask us something specific
We answer with facts, not with copy
If you want to know the source category behind a particular sock, which processing route its recycled fibre went through, or how a number on this site was arrived at, send the question. If we do not know, the answer will say that.
