Swedish Stockings

Swedish Stockings was founded to tackle the problem of textile waste and pollution within the hosiery industry. Using innovative methods and technologies, Swedish Stockings has carved a space for themselves as front runners in the sustainable hosiery market due to their use of recycled yarns, post-dying water treatments and eco friendly dyes. Their products are made in solar powered factories in Italy. 

"Each year, two billion pairs of tights are produced, worn a few times and then discarded. This is just another reason why fashion is one of the most polluting industries in the world. Landfills everywhere are full of poorly made and cheap non-biodegradable textiles – and it’s getting worse.

Nylon yarn, which is currently used to produce most modern pantyhose, is created from an environmentally harmful petroleum-based manufacturing process that is not only bad for the planet, but also produces pantyhose that don’t last.

These harmful practices in the fashion industry are all too common. we believe the world needs more innovative and environmentally conscious products to lead the way, and so Swedish Stockings was launched. A forerunner in sustainably produced nylon stockings, Swedish Stockings produce beautiful pantyhose from recycled yarn. Our factories engage in sustainable practices including the use of environmentally friendly dyes, post-dyeing water treatment and the use of solar power for much of the energy needed in the manufacturing process." Linn Frisinger and Nadja Forsberg, Swedish Stockings Founders
