We recommend washing these socks at 30° on a gentle cycle to prevent shrinkage and maintain their beautiful appearance. Washing your laundry at lower temperatures and air-drying saves energy and money, helping you minimize your ecological footprint.

All MELA textiles are triple certified according to Fairtrade Cotton, the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), and the Green Button. In our opinion, the social and ecological aspects of these standards complement each other perfectly, so we can confidently speak of holistically sustainable textiles.

• Through the Fairtrade Cotton Standard, we ensure compliance with social criteria during raw material extraction. Particular emphasis is placed on fair wages for cotton farmers. With every MELA item purchased, you support Indian cotton cooperatives with a Fairtrade premium. MELA is also part of the new Fairtrade Textile Standard and advocates for living wages throughout the entire supply chain.
• The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) ensures that only ecologically optimized substances are used throughout the entire supply chain – from cotton cultivation to the dyeing of fabrics – and that social standards are met. This is monitored by independent certification bodies.
• Additionally, this item is certified according to the government textile label Green Button, which checks social and environmental criteria at both product and company level.
