Our Story

Liebe ERDE, an eco-conscious brand of gnarly socks, was born at a time I was forced to seriously evaluate my life and what I wanted to do with it. 

My life turned upside down after the sudden death of my husband.  I found myself at a turning point in life, deeply evaluating life and what was genuinely important to me.

I was looking through a new lens.

What did I want to do with my life? What really mattered?  What did I care about most?  Well... firstly, a no-brainer - my family, my kids!  But besides that, I love the earth and all of her creatures.

I love immersing myself in nature.  I find refuge there.  I find peace as I walk through the woods.  I can clear my head when I sit by a river side, listening to the water cascading over the rocks.  I get lost in a meadow looking up at the sky.  

We are connected to this beautiful earth and she needs our protection, more now than ever.  

Needless to say, I really wanted to help the environment, and the wildlife of this beautiful earth but I also wanted to tap into my creative side.

And I wanted to make it easy for you to give too.

Therefore, I am proud to use a portion of the proceeds from our socks to give to environmentally active organizations that are doing great things to help restore Earth to her former glory. 

The name Liebe ERDE came to me because my husband was German.  Liebe, in German is love and ERDE is earth.  So, in essence, LOVE EARTH.

I sincerely hope you love our socks. <3

Peace,
