Care for your layer
Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle/wool cycle in cold water (50-68°F). Use a mild wool-safe or pH-neutral detergent. Wash with similar colors. Don't bleach or use fabric softener.
Reshape while damp and lay flat to dry. Don't tumble dry, twist, or wring. Cool iron if needed. Store folded in a cool, dry space with airflow; avoid hanging.
Naturally dyed colors can transfer with sweat or friction. Wear them with dark clothing or equipment, wash sparingly, and avoid citric acid, which can lighten the color.

I would really like to get this product, high marks, but it is far less than I anticipated. First the good, it is incredibly lightweight and very warm for its weight. The styling and color are also amazing. That said, my plan to use it for trail running is a no-go because when I sweat in it I smell like a wet alpaca. Also, it is incredibly itchy. I understand that this is likely because it is 100% alpaca but I will not be using it for my intended use. Thankfully is it stylish enough that I can wear it out as long as I do not plan to sweat. ;-)

Works great in 100• temperatures. Very durable.
Only issue is, that you have to hand wash it. I work outside in the sun and dirt. It is very durable and helps maintain a sustainable body temp, once wet.
I WOULD purchase again.
Side note, the first few days it will smell like a wet dog, but that goes away by the fourth hand wash.
Would recommend to friends and family.

I really like the sun hoody. I’ve worn it when it’s been 95 and 55 out and have been comfortable.

I’ve worn this several times in the last month. Along with just wearing it like a T-Shirt, I wore it on a cool morning walk, worn it all day on a Sunday, slept in it one night. All I have done for washing it is given it a short soak in cold water and put it on a towel to dry. It is thin, but still warm when it needs to be. Looking now at the thicker options for fall and winter.

I love the way alpaca regulates heat. The thinness allows it the breathe really well and yet can keep you warm enough when the clouds take over. Haven’t been able to test it in extremely hot/cold conditions. But what I have been able to test…it’s been the best sun hoodie I’ve ever used.
