Great Canadian Sox Co. (J.B. Field's)

The company describes itself as a Canadian-owned and operated family business, bought in 1988 by Sunil and Bipin Khimasia, with the next generation joining in 2008 and 2015. Corporations Canada returned zero results for Great Canadian Sox, Great Sox, J.B. Field, Vagden, and Apollo Merchants (the contact named in its terms of service), so it is most likely an Ontario corporation; the Ontario Business Registry and OpenCorporates could not be checked, so the legal entity name and the shareholders remain unconfirmed. The CANADA List corroborates Canadian ownership.

The company says all J.B. Field's socks, plus some Vagden and Arriva socks, are made at its own factory in Toronto, and flags the remaining Vagden and Arriva styles as imported without naming a country. The split is an estimate by product line that weights the J.B. Field's house brand, which this card is about, and puts the imported share in OTHER. madeinca.ca and the CANADA List both list the brand as made in Toronto.

The company says its merino wool comes from Australia under the Responsible Wool Standard and its organic cotton is GOTS certified, which does not name a country; nylon, elastane, and acrylic origins are not published. The split is an estimate that counts the fibres as OTHER, the Toronto knitting labour and packaging as CA, and the Shopify storefront as a US platform dependency.

• FAQ vendor_statement “Our merino wool is ethically sourced from Australia and is certified by the Responsible Wool Standard (RWS)”
• FAQ vendor_statement “Our organic cotton is GOTS-certified, so, among other things, it's grown without GMO's and coloured using non-toxic dyes.”
