Q for Quinn

Q for Quinn is a Canadian brand making socks, underwear, activewear and everyday basics for babies, kids, women and men. Its founder, Melita, started the company after struggling to find socks gentle enough for her son, who has eczema. The brand aims its pieces at people with eczema or sensory sensitivities. The brand uses GOTS-certified organic cotton and mulesing-free, RWS-certified merino wool, and steers clear of harsh chemicals. Socks are knitted at a family-owned facility in Portugal. Undergarments are made in India with biodegradable elastic trims and plant-based dyes, and activewear is made in Peru from Peruvian organic cotton. The brand says its products can be traced through the supply chain and that its workers earn living wages. For every pair of socks sold, it donates a school meal through Mary's Meals. Good On You rates Q for Quinn Good overall: Great for planet, Good for people and Good for animals. Good On You also notes there is no evidence of action to minimize packaging, or that living wages are paid in its supply chain.
