Key Benefits and Differences of Alpaca Wool to other Fibres
•Feels, looks and is luxurious. Alpaca wool is historically known as the 'fibre of the gods'.
•Five times warmer than sheep's wool.
•Strong and durable, so your garments will last a lifetime. They resist pilling so stay in good condition even after years of wear.
•Hypoallergenic, with no lanolin or oils. Alpaca can be worn by those allergic to wool.
•Sustainable and eco-friendly, alpacas are very gentle on the earth. As they have softly padded feet and are very resilient to outdoor conditions, they do not damage the ground they walk on, and consume and use very little resources in their lifespan compared to sheep or goats.
•Naturally water repellent, water will run off the garment after a light rain or splash of water. Alpaca wool is also very difficult to ignite, so the risk of it catching fire is low.
Where is the alpaca wool range made?
As always, our garments are proudly made in New Zealand. We're dedicated to keep it that way.
