Here are 7 reasons why You Should Alcapa Clothing
1. Alpaca Wool Warmer Than Sheep Wool
Alpaca fleece is warmer than sheep’s wool per gram of fiber. Alpaca fibers are hollow, whereas sheep’s wool only contains air pockets. Like polar bear fur, both fibers allow air to permeate the surface and become trapped inside for a warm wearing experience. Alpacas have an advantage over sheep wool because of the extra hollow space in the fiber. This additional space creates a greater thermal capacity, allowing more warm air to fill the textile and provide extra warmth over its sheep’s wool counterpart.
2. Alpaca Wool Is Hypoallergenic
Because alpaca wool is made of hollow fibers without sharp fish hooks, alpaca wool is hypoallergenic. Also, because it doesn’t have any lanolin (unlike sheep’s wool), environmental allergens don’t stick to it or get processed into any of the products, ensuring that it will always be hypoallergenic, unlike Merino Wool, which, even after super washing maintains some lanolin, allowing it to pick up environmental allergens that rub against your skin all day and make you itchy.
3. Highest Quality Wool
- Alpaca comes in grades of fineness. This grading adds to the luxury and cost of alpaca items.
- Premium Baby Alpaca or Baby Royal (1% of alpaca harvested)
- Baby Alpaca (15% of alpaca harvested)
- Super Fine Alpaca (30% of alpaca harvested)
- Course Alpaca (50% of alpaca harvested)
4. Alpaca Fiber Is Highly Wearable:
- Soft like cashmere
- Higher comfort factor and very low “prickly” feel
- Hypoallergenic and free of lanolin
- Fire resistant
- Water-resistant with a low absorption rate
- Dries quickly
- Naturally wicks water away from the skin
- Breathable
5. Alpaca Wool Is Very Durable:
- Higher tensile stretch
- Odor resistant
- UV resistant
- Resistant to abrasion
- Resistance to pilling
- Wrinkle resistant

6. Alpaca Fiber Offers Superior Temperature Control:
- Significantly warmer than both sheep’s wool and cashmere
- Superior thermal regulation to maintain the optimal temperature in both cold and warm weather
- It is lighter than cashmere or merino wool, so it is perfect for layering
- Alpaca fiber is eco-friendly:
7. Alpaca Fiber Is Free Of Harsh Chemicals And Dyes
- The wool comes in lots of natural colors that include shades of white, beige, fawn, brown, rose gray, silver gray, and black
