Originally from Venezuela, Karla, founder of Naked Nation, took inspiration from her grandmother, who made and sold jewellery and pyjamas to the local community. Combining the attention to detail and passion for community from her grandmother, and her own experience as an environmental engineer and fashion designer, Naked Nation was born.

I loved the personal approach and sense of belonging that Karla envisioned for Naked Nation. The signature gift packaging and handwritten note in the package represented that. She kindly sent me a huge parcel with different sizes, colours and styles to try!
Happy Planet, Happy Feet!

Naked Nation socks are made from sustainable bamboo, which is super soft as well as being breathable, naturally anti-bacterial and anti-fungal. Their bamboo-based fabric is kind to all skin types, even sensitive ones, and has natural breathability and bacteria resistance for fresher and healthier feet – something my teenage children can definitely benefit from!
Bamboo doesn’t require pesticides to grow, and needs less land and water than equivalent cotton crops. Even more amazingly, when grown instead of trees, bamboo fields contribute 35% more oxygen to the atmosphere in the same acreage!
Review

First to test out were the trainer socks. They come in 6 different colours and have the Naked Nation logo on each pair. I’m sure most of us are familiar with the feeling of socks not staying in place and rolling down our feet… I’m happy to say this did not happen while wearing these trainer socks! Even when I wore wellies to walk the dog, they stayed in place.
The breathable mesh design on the instep keeps you cool when wearing them in the summer and their ‘no show’ design means socks stay hidden underneath your footwear!
No matter what you’re up to – in the gym, walking the dog, commuting to work or simply staying cosy at home – Naked Nation socks are perfect. Other designs include the crew style that warms the tootsies comfortably on cold days but stay cool when it’s hot.

My teenage son soon had his hands on the skater style socks. He wore them when skateboarding and said they were very comfy.
Thank you, Karla, for sharing your amazing story and amazing socks with Between Green.
I cant wait to share them with Between Green Subscribers very soon!
