Our factory in Longmont, Colorado

 

Dohm Icebox is the picture of sustainability.  Made in Colorado, USA, we started 16 years ago handcrafting  our Dohm wool knit hat line on antique knitting machines.  All machines are powered by hand.  All hats are comprised of world class woolly yarns that are produced under the strictest environmental standards.   

 

To further our commitment to the environment, we created a upcycled collection called Xob (pronounced /zob/; "BOX" spelled backwards) where no two items are alike.   The pieces and parts of recycled wool blend sweaters  and wool suit jackets are used to handcraft our funky and fun hat and accessory lines.  The headband is lined with recycled polar fleece.  

 

The trimmings and scraps from our hat liness are then used to stuff Xob the Recycled Sweater Monkey and for the handcrafted appliqué.  Our sweater monkey is stuffed with the help of those from the Center for People with Disabilities, Boulder County.  

 

 

 

Our packaging consists of:

  • Recyclable plastic bags.
  • Xob hangtags are 100% recycled post consumer waste printed with soy based link.
  • Dohm Hangtags are 50% recycled post consumer wasted printed with veggie based ink.
  • Catalogs are printed on mixed sources and certified by FSC.
  • Micro-weave labels contain 35% of recycled milk jugs.

 

 

As we continue to grow, we find more and more ways to use end pieces of our products to create new products.
