Organic Sock Firm to Give 1 Million Socks to Homeless

Sierra_Club_Socks.jpgOn November 1, an online sock-athon will unveil a new line of organic socks with the Sierra Club brand. During the sock-athon event, for every pair of socks purchased, a pair will be donated to The National Coalition for the Homeless, and 10% of the proceeds will be donated to the Sierra Club.

"There are videos, blogs, superheroes, on line communities, and a second grader in Michigan, Catrina, all championing the Sock-athon. People are coming together in unexpected ways. A musician even wrote a song about the Sock-athon," said Diogenes Ruiz, the Sock-athon sponsor.

Sierra Club socks are made from natural organic and eco friendly yarns, including certified organic cotton and bamboo, and recycled synthetics, all with recycled packaging. The Sierra Club socks become available on line at 12:01 a.m. November 1st. Ladies and men's performance, dress and casual style socks are available in fresh colors with red, purple, turquoise and brown, as well as classic black, navy, brown, beige and white color socks.

One of the sock-athon volunteers, Anora McGaha said, "The vision to raise a million pairs of socks for the homeless, and a million dollars for the Sierra Club was so awesome, I couldn't resist helping out. It reminds me of paying it forward on the spot."

Environmentally Friendly Golf Shoe

enviro.jpgAs people become increasingly aware of the effects that their purchasing decisions and lifestyles can make on the environment, HI-TEC has responded by creating a golf shoe made from 99% environmentally sustainable materials.

Traditionally leather is tanned using chrome - which when absorbed into the body through drinking water can cause damage to organs including the liver and kidney. In some areas of heavy leather production, drinking water and aquatic life has become seriously polluted by chrome use. To help counter this, the Enviro is created using chrome-free, organic vegetable-tanned leathers.

To complete the picture, the shoe's outsoles are made of rice husks and latex rubber and the sockliner is made from 100% recycled materials. Only the spike receptacle remains 'not green' although HI-TEC's engineers are confident that soon even this will be made in a sustainable fashion.

Trust Your Journey an Eco-Friendly Women's Apparel Line

When Beth Brownlee, former Director of Apparel Sales for Columbia Sportswear was diagnosed with breast cancer, she never thought it would lead to launching her own brand just a few years later. This month, Brownlee and her business partner, Ruth Nichols, also a former Columbia executive, have introduced Trust Your Journey, an inspirational and eco-friendly apparel line.

The company was conceived during Brownlee's chemotherapy treatments when a friend told her to "trust your journey."

"When I heard those words, it just hit me, 'You can beat this awful cancer, Beth, you just need to believe in this and have the courage to stay positive,' I said to myself. I knew at that point I would heal and one day give this inspiration back," says Brownlee.
