Where bamboo socks land
Three Türkiye-facing audiences make bamboo socks the right sustainability gift. İstanbul's Levent–Maslak tech campuses commission 200–1,000 unit programmes of a bamboo-blend sock (one-size, 80% bamboo / 17% nylon / 3% elastane) as a new-hire welcome kit — the sock carries the brand mark on the cuff, wears through 50+ wash cycles. Sustainability-led ESG programmes at Garanti BBVA, İş Bankası, Akbank commission 100–500 unit programmes of a bamboo sock as a customer-loyalty gift. Retail launch programmes at homeware and lifestyle brands run 100–500 unit programmes of a bamboo sock in a kraft gift sleeve.
Fabric and construction
Standard is a 80% bamboo / 17% nylon / 3% elastane blend (anti-bacterial, moisture-wicking, OEKO-TEX Standard 100 on request). Premium is a 100% bamboo (softer, more breathable). All socks feature a one-size cuff (fits EU 36–46), reinforced heel and toe, ribbed cuff. We hold five stock colourways (white, black, navy, grey, cream) and Pantone dye-lot match for 500+ unit programmes.
Branding bamboo socks
Embroidery on the cuff (40×15 mm) is the default — polyester thread, OEKO-TEX-compliant. Woven label (40×15 mm) sewn to the cuff or side seam is the discreet mark for premium programmes. Sublimation on the sock handles full-colour photographic branding for limited editions, +TRY 22/pair. We avoid silkscreen on bamboo socks — the surface rejects fine detail.
