100% wool
The Bishkek Kicks are made entirely of wool. Wool is a natural animal fiber that insulates and resists odor; favor untreated. That composition is what Toxome scores, and it earns 78 out of 100 on the fiber scale, where 100 is cleanest.

They are 100% wool.
Wool is a natural animal fiber that insulates and resists odor; favor untreated. Toxome rates every fiber on what it does to the body of the person wearing it, and publishes the reasoning rather than a badge. The score covers the fiber, not the dyes and finishes a mill adds later.
Toxome reads each garment's fiber composition and scores it on what that fiber does to your body, not on a brand's sustainability marketing. A higher score means a cleaner fiber. Composition is taken from what the brand publishes, so the score reflects the label rather than our opinion of it.
