Second Cut™ helps our best materials stay in your gear and out of landfills. By using fibers that have been reclaimed through our circular initiatives, we are able to create high-quality products with the added benefit of reducing our environmental footprint.
You have sent us nearly 2 million socks which have kept over 150,000 pounds of perfectly good materials out of landfills.
Recycle your socks with us.
Old socks don’t have to be thrown away anymore. You can order a free sock recycling kit from us, print your own label at home, or find a participating retailer near you.
Our Second Cut™ recycled wool program represents a significant step forward in our commitment to sustainability. By using recycled materials that would otherwise be discarded, we reduce waste and resource use.
Through our programs, we are creating opportunities to extend the lifecycle of our products while minimizing environmental impact. These efforts are part of our broader mission to drive positive change across our supply chain and product lifecycle.
How does the Second Cut™ project support sustainability?
By recycling and repurposing wool products, the initiative helps minimize waste, conserves resources, and reduces the carbon footprint associated with textile production.
Is there a way to get rewarded contributing to Second Cut™?
Whiles there is not necessarily a reward for contributing to Second Cut™, you can send in your old gear to ThreadUp through the Second Cut™ Resale program, where you will get sent a Smartwool gift card when it sells.
