Our Inca Collection honors traditional Andean techniques passed down through generations. These methods are far more gentle and hands-on than the processes typical of modern clothing production. Our sweaters are still dried by the Andean sun and crafted with practices that are gentle on the environment, using minimal energy and resources. Each sweater in the Inca Collection is still made by the original family of knitters that started PAKA with our founder, Kris, embracing a thoughtful approach to the craftsmanship and symbolism behind each design.
