Alpaca Loca

Alpaca Loca is a young and innovative label based in Amsterdam. It offers quality alpaca wool products, handmade by wool weaver communities in the Andes Mountains, Ecuador and Peru. Sustainability and the Fair Trade concept are of paramount importance.

Alpaca Loca specialises in luxurious and silky soft plaids and scarves, with hats, mittens and socks as additions to the collection. Alpaca wool is a natural, super soft fabric and has many advantages over sheep's wool or cashmere. It is hypoallergenic because it does not contain lanolin like sheep's wool. The structure of alpaca wool is stronger and softer than that of cashmere. The wool does not sting and is dirt- and water-repellent. Thanks to the hollow fibre it insulates very well and is wonderfully warm. It is a natural product, fair trade produced.

The wool used for the Alpaca Loca products comes from alpacas from Peru and Ecuador. The brand attaches great importance to quality, tradition, integrity and social responsibility and has made a conscious decision to set up production in this way. The sale of Alpaca Loca contributes to building a better livelihood for alpaca farmers and weavers in the Andes Mountains.

About alpaca wool

Alpaca wool is known for its super quality. Already centuries ago, the wool was recognised as an exclusive product by the Inca people in South America. At that time it only the nobility was able to buy this expensive 'super wool' and have it woven.

The wool has such a high quality that over the years it has developed into a luxury product in the Western world. The natural fibre is hollow and light, which means that it easily surpasses the warmth and softness of other types of wool. The fibre has a durable structure, making the wool functional and beautiful for a long time. Because the wool does not contain lanolin, it is hypoallergenic and water-repellent.
