What makes Alpaca fiber so special?

Alpaca incorporates the finest features of the world's natural fibers.
It is as soft as cashmere and warmer and stronger than wool.

  Alpaca fiber contains microscopic air pockets that create lightweight garments with high insulation values. 
  Alpaca fiber's cellular structure produces a soft handle unmatched by most specialty fibers. 
  Alpaca is found in every natural color and shade (22 basic recognized colors). 
  Alpaca has a natural rich luster that gives garments high visual appeal. 
  Alpaca is easily dyed any color and still retains its natural luster. 
  Alpaca does not easily tear, pill, stain or create static. 
  Alpaca fiber is unusually strong and resilient. 
  Alpaca garments are easily cleaned. 
  Alpaca is non allergenic.

The rarity of Alpaca is its only limitation.
The world produces less Alpaca fiber
than any other commercially recognized fiber except vicuna . 
The Incan Kings recognized the Alpaca's unique qualities
and reserved its cloth for the exclusive use of their royal court.
