Why Alpaca Fiber?
Warmer than wool, softer than cashmere, silkier than mohair, alpaca is one of Earth's rarest natural fibers. Luxurious alpaca fiber is perfect for spring days, cool summer evenings, or frigid winter weather. Alpaca is a natural choice for today's eco-conscious consumer.

  • Does not contain grease, oil, or lanolin so processing is naturally 'green' and hypo-allergenic
  • Is extremely fine, won't make you itch
  • Is a hollow core fiber, providing excellent insulative or thermal qualities
  • Naturally moisture-wicking, does not retain water
  • Has a high tensile strength and is abraision resistent providing long wearability
  • Dyes easily and blends with other natural or synthetic fibers
