Point6 is an American clothing company. Founded in 2008 in Steamboat Springs, Colorado by Peter Duke and Patty Duke (founders of Smartwool), Point6 is a family-owned company that sells products mainly online. [1] Most recently, Point6 was named to lists of Best Ski Socks of 2023 and Best Hiking Socks for 2024. [2] [3]
Overview
The company makes socks and apparel primarily from merino wool imported from New Zealand and a compact spinning process that remove air from between the merino fibers, creating a soft and durable yarn. [4] [5] [6]
The history of Point6 goes back to 1986, when Patty and Peter Duke began making hats and socks for their friends. In 1994, the husband-and-wife team introduced merino wool to the world as founders of Smartwool [7]. In 2003, the Dukes sold their interest in Smartwool to RAF Industries. [6] Five years later upon the expiration of the couple's non-compete agreement, the Dukes founded Point6. [6]
Point6's products have been featured in numerous publications for their comfort, durability and performance: OutdoorLife (2024), CNN (2023), Steamboat Magazine (2023 [8]), Thrillist (2023 [9]) Gear Junky (2020 [10]), 5280 Magazine (2023 [11], 2019 [11]), Men's Journal (2023 [12]).
Point6 has partnerships in place with and donates a portion of its proceeds to the Appalachian Trail Conservancy, Continental Divide Coalition, Friends of the Colorado Avalanche Information Center (FoCAIC), National Forest Foundation and other regional and national organizations. [13] [5]
