FEATURES & USE: Modern functional design for enjoyment of the snow with maximum comfort and control.
SKI & SNOW
Knee-high padded socks for winter sports. Elastic band on the feet arch keeps the sock in place for maximum protection with no extra bulk increasing control and sensitivity of your boots and protecting the most stressed contact points.
Reinforced heel and toe. Natural thermal adaptability for variable weather.
TECHNIKALPACA TECHNOLOGY
Alpaca is enhanced by blending it with Merino Wool, for a more durable and resilient product and with Bamboo Rayon to increase freshness and control odour.
Blended fibers are knitted on a technical layered knit to obtain the best performance from natural resources.
THERMAL ADAPTABILITY
Alpaca fiber creates a vapor barrier to keep you warm when the weather is cold and fresh when it is hot.
As a natural semi-hollow fiber it traps warm air in the cores insulating even in wet or windy conditions.
MOISTURE MANAGEMENT
Alpaca fibers use capillary action to transfer moisture from the skin outwards and spread it on the surface of the fibers, increasing the evaporation rate for keeping the user dry and comfortable.
COMFORT
The smooth and lustrous nature of Alpaca is very gentle on the skin, reducing friction and blisters from any imperfection inside the footwear as well as protecting from UV radiation.
SUSTAINABLE HIGH-PERFORMANCE
Alpaca is the best performing fiber to make socks. Hollow hairs make it warm, dry, fresh and light.
Alpaca herds roam freely in harmony with their natural ecosystems and are shorn by hand once a year.
We transform the fiber using state-of-the-art technology obtaining innovative products that don’t harm the environment, animals nor society.
This sustainable industry brings better living conditions to one of the most remote regions in the world.

Alpaca evolved at over 4,000 meters above sea level. In such extreme conditions morning temperatures can be 25°C while in the same evening it can drop below -15°C.
Ancient civilizations developed a very close relationship with alpacas in order to survive in such inhospitable environments by selective breeding them for their unrivaled insulating fiber.
