Who we are

1for1.clUb is a Tasmania-based certified social enterprise retailing purpose-driven adventure clothing designed for hiking, travel, camping and everyday exploration. Our premium Australian merino socks and beanies are engineered for comfort, durability and multi-day wear in challenging conditions.

The idea for 1for1.clUb came from a simple observation: many of the challenges faced by multi-day hikers, limited access to washing facilities, long periods on your feet, managing moisture, blisters and foot health, are the same challenges faced by people experiencing homelessness. Quality socks can make a significant difference to comfort, wellbeing and dignity.

Socks are consistently one of the most requested items by homelessness support services, yet one of the least donated. Through our One Purchased = One Distributed model, every item purchased includes the distribution of a matching item through trusted community partners supporting Australians doing it tough.

Led by founder Gabe Gossage, 1for1.clUb is driven by the values of adventure, quality, impact and community, proving that everyday purchases can create practical, lasting change.
