See Them In Action

Members of the Q for Quinn community share what they love about our basics.

Hi, My Name Is Melita.

I founded Q for Quinn to dress my son, who suffered from eczema. I was alarmed to find that around 90% of baby and kids' socks contained BPA and Parabens. This compelled me to seek a safer alternative.

Today, my small team and I strive to create healthy, comfortable organic cotton basics – gentle on our skin, planet and community.

What Our Customers Say

Ana A

Absolutely love! I was looking for undyed GOTS organic cotton ankle socks and I found them thanks to Quinn. I'm definitely purchasing more since the fit is great and feel great on my feet. Thank you for what you do!

Marinn W

I’ve tried most popular underwear brands out there, but none compare to quinn - the cut of their underwear is like none I’ve had and I will literally never buy underwear from anyone else again. You can wear them longer than typical synthetic fiber underwear and I truly forget they’re even on. They never slip, never give me a wedgie, and never ride up. 11/10

Best Wool Socks

These socks are so dreamy. Love the cushion at the feet. Been wearing it is fall weather and it’s so perfect. Keeps my feet warm without overheating.

Teresa S.

These are the softest socks I’ve ever worn! My feet do not sweat and they don’t slip down and ball up under my foot. Very comfortable and I can’t even feel the toe seam. They are expensive, but worth the money. I purchased ankle socks a couple of years ago and they are still holding up. Hate they were out of stock on a lot of items. Would love a drawer full!

Are Q for Quinn products suitable for sensitive skin?

All our products are designed first for sensitive skin and conditions.

In fact, our very first pair of socks was designed to be gentle enough for a little boy who suffered from eczema.

The integrity of the materials and the rigor of being a GOTS-certified brand enable us to create products that are gentle on our skin and our planet.

Are there any synthetics in Q for Quinn products?

At Q for Quinn, you will find basics with some of the highest composition of organic, GOTS-certified, natural materials in the world! However, we also understand that everyday living calls for basics that fit well and stand the test of time.

Some of our basics are made from 100% cotton, most are made with 95%+ natural materials, and a few contain a small amount of synthetics to improve comfort and durability. Some synthetics such as elastics are used for our waistband and cuffs. These are covered and GOTS approved inputs from trims. 

The composition of our basics can be found in every product listing under “Fabric and Care.” You can also read more about our selective use of polyester below. 

Cotton Patterned Socks

Some of our cotton patterned socks are GOTS-certified and made with 80% organic materials, but they do include some recycled polyester — which is key for strengthening socks with heavy graphic elements.

We are constantly working to increase the composition of natural, organic materials and hope to soon replace our bestselling patterns with a 98% cotton composition.

Merino Wool Socks

Since Merino wool is a very delicate yarn, our Merino wool socks are made with a small amount of recycled polyester. This helps to strengthen the socks and ensure they last for years to come. 

As with all of our products, we are continually experimenting with new compositions to improve longevity and maximize the composition of natural fabrics. We use polyester and synthetics very selectively. When we do so, we ensure they are complaint with GOTS and OEKO-Tex Standards.
