Develop Meaningful Products

We are constantly evaluating the life cycle of our products from beginning to end. From sourcing our raw materials, care of the animals and care for the farmers, to creating efficiencies in manufacturing processes and recycling efforts, we strive to take better care of our customers and make products that positively impact our world.

New Zealand merino wool

Point6 has developed direct relationships with merino wool farmers in New Zealand. These farmers hand-select the wool for Point6 according to extremely strict fibre specifications. Our sheep are raised according to the highest standards of animal welfare with ample food, comfort and shelter provided in a disease and distress-free environment.

merino wool processing

Our wool goes through a process of being cleaned, combed, spun and dyed in a quality way. We ensure high standards by working with suppliers who use renewable energy, are on a constant quest to preserve clean air and water, and direct their investments toward achieving an equitable environmental balance in all of their activities.

Made in USA

All point6 socks are manufactured in the Southeastern United States, where we support domestic employees and communities. Point6 designs and tests its performance sock line in the Rocky Mountains, near its headquarters in Steamboat Springs, Colorado.
