Alpaca Wool

Alpaca is warmer, lighter, stronger, and softer than cashmere or merino wool. Alpacas are also considered the greenest renewable fleece producers due to the low impact they have on the environment.

La Sierra works collaboratively with Indigenous artisan families in Ecuador and Peru, creating quality alpaca textiles using authentic traditional processes. La Sierra works directly with the people who create their garments and ensure the makers receive Fair Payment for their work. Read more about the people behind La Sierra here.
