I've got a few pairs of wool socks from pre-veganism, but they're all wearing down and approaching their end of life. I need warm, durable socks that can approach wool's comfort and utility. What do you suggest?

edit: here's an article about why vegans should avoid wool

Ah cool. That's new to when I last looked.

In theory I think that cert is not entirely bullshit as there should be inspections.

A couple of things give me pause though:

  • it's a private industry governing body so idk how well policed it is wrt corruption etc

  • there are grades of passing which seem quite flexible

  • it's intended for suppliers to show, not customer facing.

They might also be but personally I'd feel better if they were iso certified for various things like the environmental responsibility one and safe working practices one etc. Iso certification is expensive though
