Without a doubt one of the highest quality pieces of clothing I have ever owned. Light, warm, and breathable.

It's comfier and cozier than I ever could have thought, and I can wear it daily for weeks — even on sweaty hiking and biking activities — without washing it or being even a little stinky. This sweater is a warm snuggly hug and I keep ordering them for my friends and family members.

This sweater is phenomenal, it’s what I imagine cuddling with an alpaca feels like. I’m an extremely active person and the sweaters seamlessly function from hanging out on the couch to more active activities.

When I read the reviews of people saying, "it's equally good in warmer weather and cold weather", I didn't get it. Now that I'm wearing it. I get it.

Extremely lightweight
Our hoodie weighs less than 10 oz. That's lighter than your coffee mug.
Odor-resistant
So you can hit the slopes, grab some dinner, wear it to bed, and repeat.
Softer than cashmere
Our blend uses Royal Alpaca (18-19 microns), meaning you can wear this pullover sweater hoodie without an undershirt.

Is flint more of a mauve (plum/purple undertones) than a brown? I am hesitating to buy because I don’t want it to arrive a milk chocolate brown and then need to return it. I don’t trust the color on my phone or computer.

I have this and it's beautiful. But I will note, "recycled nylon", according to this website, is still creating problems for our planet, not helping. (The name sounds good though!). It still sheds microplastics. https://textileexchange.org/nylon/ And it is still derived from petroleum. I had thought it was 100% alpaca when I bought it. So for the planet-conscious, just be aware. Any plans to use a more earth - friendly, biodegradable or natural material in your fabric?

Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback! 🌿 You’re absolutely right about the impact of recycled nylon, and we appreciate you bringing this up. We're always exploring ways to improve and become more eco-friendly. While the recycled nylon helps with durability, we're definitely considering more sustainable and biodegradable options in the future. Stay tuned for updates as we continue to prioritize the planet! 💛🦙✨

Hi, What size would be best for a tall (6'4") yet very lean guy? In general tall sizes work best for him, Large Tall, for example. Usually an XL fits in length but is too baggy on his frame.

Do these come in different lengths? I'm returning a hoodie right now that fits good in the shoulders and chest but it's half way to my knees.

I’m a backpacker who wears a heavy (30-35 lb) pack while traveling. Will the straps of that harm the wool or cause it to pill?
We will send a verification email to confirm your answer. All responses are subject to store approval.
Hey Emily! Yes, backpacks can cause pilling and wear due to constant rubbing. But no worries! Try using a light jacket or scarf over your garment to protect it from direct contact. Also, you can adjust the straps slightly to reduce pressure on the shoulders and back. Hope this helps! 😉

I am looking at purchasing a hoodie but am worried that it might taper too much in the hips with it being unisex sizing. I am not a straight, athletic build. For my frame, I am small on top, but have wider hips. If I order up to fit my hips, will it be too baggy?around the chest?

My son usually wears a size Large shirt. Your website tells me that I should buy him a size M. Do your hoodies run large? Which size shoul I buy him. He’s 5’7” and has a kind of barrel chest and a little belly. His shoulders are quite broad. He’s 24. Thanks !

Hey Kelly! 😊 I wanted to let you know that we’ve made some exciting updates to our website! You can now easily find the Size Guide for each garment, which I think you’ll find super helpful, especially with our sizing tool. For size M, the measurements are as follows: chest 41'', waist 34'', and hip 39''. If those measurements sound just right for your son, then M will be the perfect fit for your son!
what is the weight of the crew and hoodie?
We will send a verification email to confirm your answer. All responses are subject to store approval.
It really depends on the size, but just to give you an idea, The Hoodie weighs 16oz and The Original Crew comes in at 12oz. Let me know if you have any questions!
Can I get one for free?

Nope, but you do get free Crew Socks with every hoodie purchase! Just remember to toss them in your cart—we're good, but mind-reading your size and color? Not quite there... yet 😎.

Do you have a pant, hoodie or crew that is 100 % Alpaca. No Nylon, silk like thermoplastics or petroleum’s in my wardrobe.
We will send a verification email to confirm your answer. All responses are subject to store approval.
Great question! While 100% alpaca sounds dreamy, it tends to lose shape over time. That’s why we blend it with other natural fibers to keep that soft, cozy feel while adding durability. While we don’t have 100% alpaca, our Tees, Baselayers, and Breathe collection are made with only natural fiber blends, keeping things cozy and eco-friendly for your wardrobe! 🌱
is this water repellant?

Hey! The Hoodie is not water-repellent, but you can layer it with the Lightweight Puffer, which is rainproof, for added protection from the rain!

What does "Royal Alpaca" mean?
We will send a verification email to confirm your answer. All responses are subject to store approval.
Different classifications of alpaca wool refer to different thicknesses of fibers (called microns). A thicker fiber = a higher micron = greater itch. There's Adult Alpaca (24+ microns), then Baby Alpaca (21-23 microns), and finally Royal Alpaca (18-19 microns), the finest selection of alpaca fiber possible. Any fiber less than 21 microns feels soft to the touch and does not cause that itch often associated with wool garments. Royal Alpaca is a luxurious and unique fiber - only 1% of all alpaca fiber production in the world can be classified as Royal. We believe it's soft, if not softer, than cashmere wool.

Our goal is to create a design that fits your body so well, you don't even notice it. Based off global feedback we received from our first round of customers, we aggregated all the data, flew Nike's Ex-Senior Designer down to Cusco, and created a novel fit that's unlike anything out there.

We're working with PACOMARCA for the best practices in raising and shearing alpacas. A special technique is used to shear each alpaca, called Inca Esquila, which is an mechanized shearing technique to reduce the time and stress to the alpaca. This method has been adopted officially by the Peruvian government as the national technical standard on shearing (NTP 231.370-2014).
How can I be sure of the quality of the alpaca wool?

All alpaca wool we use is OEKO TEX certified, one of the world's best-known labels for textiles tested for harmful substances. MADE IN GREEN by OEKO TEX guarantees that the textile product has been manufactured using sustainable processes under environmentally friendly and socially responsible working conditions. Furthermore, with this certification you can be certain that every component of this article, i.e. every thread, button and other accessories, has been tested for harmful substances and that the article therefore is harmless in human ecological terms.
