– HYPOALERGENIC:
Alpaca is considered a dry fiber, without lanolin that is found in sheep’s wool which causes fewer allergic reactions. Alpaca wool hypoallergenic properties ensure that it’s safe for people with sensitive skins and allergies.
– Almost Completely Waterproof:
Yes, if you pour water on alpaca, it will get wet. However, it does offer great wicking abilities. Wool will absorb up to 50% of its body weight in moisture, but after this there is a saturation point and the sweat can sit next to skin, increasing discomfort and likelihood of blisters (socks rubbing against the skin). Because alpaca is hollow, it traps in more heat and mechanically pushes the water away, never having a saturation point on the skin. Essentially, the water evaporates because of the warmth of the alpaca.
– Soft and super comfortable, Alpaca wool is completely natural and is exclusive alternative to cashmere.
– Breathable

Cashmere became so mass-produced in 1990s, that couturiers began searching for a rarer, more exclusive alternative. This opened the gates to a new hoofed critter, the alpaca, a camelid cousin of the camel and the llama. The silky-soft secret spread to the fashion world and high-end designers began flocking to use the fleece of the South American native.
Alpaca has made it to the head of the pack in the designer-garment universe; many now believe its yarn is more luxurious, slightly softer, lighter and warmer thanks to its longer fibers than cashmere. It also pills less than cashmere and is hypoallergenic.
Alpaca weaving is a traditional craft, done using sustainable methods, which puts it under the desirable “Fair Trade” banner. This, combined with the ability to create high-end designs using a lesser-known fiber, are among the reasons alpaca wool has gained such a prominent luxury fashion following. Design houses that have warmed to alpaca include Giorgio Armani, Max Mara and Nanette Lepore.
