The Story

Q for Quinn is a sustainable apparel company founded in 2017, specializing in GOTS-certified organic cotton and merino wool basics for the whole family. Based in Toronto, Canada, the brand creates socks, underwear, and essential apparel designed for comfort and environmental responsibility.

The company was born from a personal mission to provide safe, natural clothing options for children, after the founder struggled to find appropriate organic cotton basics for her own kids. This parent-driven purpose shapes every product decision, from material sourcing to ethical manufacturing in Portugal and India.

Q for Quinn operates on a one-for-one giving model, donating a school meal with every purchase. Through partnerships with organizations like Mary's Meals, the brand has contributed over 500,000 meals to children in need, weaving social impact directly into its business model.
