TECHNIKALPACA TECHNOLOGY
The properties of alpaca wool are further improved by mixing it with merino wool to create a more durable and resistant product. Mixing with bamboo rayon also ensures freshness and binds odors.
Blended fibers are processed into a layered knit pattern to achieve the best performance from natural resources.
THERMAL ADJUSTMENT
The fibers of alpaca wool create a barrier of vapor that keeps you warm in cold weather and cool in hot weather.
The natural semi-hollow fibers of alpaca wool store warm air inside and therefore insulate even in wet and windy conditions.
MOISTURE MANAGEMENT
Alpaca fibers transfer moisture from the skin to the outside through the capillary effect and distribute it on the surface of the fibers. This means that the moisture on the feet evaporates better and keeps them dry and pleasantly warm.
COMFORT
The smooth and shiny natural fiber of alpaca wool is very gentle on the skin, reduces friction and blistering caused by uneven footwear and protects against UV radiation.
SUSTAINABLE HIGH PERFORMANCE
Apaka wool offers the highest performance fiber for making socks. The hollow fibers keep you warm, dry, pleasantly cool and comfortable.
The alpaca herds move in harmony with their natural ecosystem and are sheared by hand once a year.
We transform the fiber using the latest technology and obtain innovative products that do not harm the environment, animals or society.
This sustainable industry improves living conditions in one of the most remote regions in the world.

In the Andes, at an altitude of over 4,000 meters, there are temperature differences of up to 40 degrees over a whole day.
In order to survive, South American alpacas have adapted to the circumstances and developed a dull fleece wool that cools in the morning sun and warms in the frosty nights.
These insulating fibers transport moisture to the outside across the surface of the fibers and thus ensure quick drying.
Alpaca fleece is incredibly soft and soft and thus prevents friction on the skin and the formation of blisters on long hikes.
Due to the extreme sunlight in the Andes, the fibers are UV-resistant and thus protect the skin from sunlight.
In contrast to humanely produced fibers, alpaca fiber production is friendly to the environment and animals and works with renewable processes that protect the environment and provide the best quality for everyone.
With the right size you will find the right level of comfort
