Wash & care

  • Wash
    Hand washing on cold is best. If you use the machine, wash on delicate and cold
  • Dry
    Lay flat to dry
  • 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.

    - Julia B.

  • 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.

    - Guanyi

  • 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.

Gear that keeps up with you
Extremely light

This 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 it without an undershirt.

Thermoregulating

The alpaca evolved in one of the most dynamic climates in the world, creating a naturally thermal comfort range of more than 50°F.
