Why you should have alpaca socks

First of all, what is alpaca wool?

If you do not know what is alpaca wool, this will interest you: it is warmer than the sheep wool, more insulating thanks to its composition as a tube (empty inside, filled with air) and also softer. Moreover, it does not sting on the skin and is certainly a material of a great nobility (only the Incas of the high society had the right to wear it). Another point likely to interest your toes: the alpaca wool keep moisture away from your skin.

Now that you know the benefits of alpaca wool, here are the types of socks we have in store.
