How long have you been operating? 

Our story began in Thalheim, Germany where Max Lindner, with his wife Meta, founded the “H. Max Lindner Strumpf Fabrik” in 1921. 

In 1987, Lindner Quality Socks Pty Ltd was established in Australia in a small factory in Goulburn, NSW. We then relocated to Crookwell, NSW, in 1997, where we remain today. For more information about the history of Lindner Socks, please see Our Heritage.
