Wash & care

  • Fully machine washable

  • I have never used such soft and functional socks before. I take them on my mountain biking, hiking, and rock climbing adventures. The best part is that they always keep fresh with no odor.

    - Carlos C.

  • My feet are always cold. Recently I was caught in an unexpected snow storm in Ausangate wearing short hiking boots. These socks somehow keep my feet warm and comfortable, even while my shoes filled with snow. I think they might be magic.

Why alpaca socks? Thermoregulating. The alpaca evolved in the Andes Mountains, where the temperature shifts 70°F a single day. They don't stay wet. The water retention rate for alpaca fiber is 8%, while other wools sit around 16-20%. Light as a cloud. Medullated air pockets make alpaca fiber 3x lighter thank sheep wool. Ba-a-ad news for merino. You can't make these socks smell. Bacteria can't grow on alpaca. Dare you to wear these for a week straight. Why alpaca socks? Thermoregulating.
