Wear more, wash less
Alpaca wool naturally resists odor. Air your layer between wears, then wash it when it needs cleaning. Less time doing laundry. More time outside.
Keep a heavier layer ready for changing conditions. This women's 420 g/m² Alpaca hoodie jacket opens fully at the front and adds a hood for coverage when your pace slows.
Free US shipping on orders over $200.
Return unused, unwashed items within 15 days of delivery. Return fees may apply.
Your layer starts with Alpaca wool from Peru. Its smooth fiber surface gives the knit a soft feel, while the knit structure allows air to move through as you do.
The full zip makes it easy to put on over a first layer. Pull up the hood when you want more coverage.
The knit holds air close to your body for insulation, while its open structure allows air to move through as your effort changes.

This hoody has already traveled with me to temperature extremes in Canada and in Georgia, USA as well as New York. I layer this with my down parka over a dress blouse and I'm fine in the frigid single digit (Fahrenheit) temperatures of Montreal. I threw it on as a outer layer in warmer climes and I'm comfortable all day, inside and outside, in planes and automobiles. The fabric is thinner than a typical sweatshirt hoodie, but the work it does to keep me warm and cool is anything but like a typical sweatshirt. It's soft yet structured, breathable yet warm. The price is worth every fiber of this garment. The thumb holes are perfect for keeping the sleeves inside my gloves which kept the bitter Canadian wind from creeping up my wrists.
The only thing I wish for are pockets, but I appreciate the streamlined silhouette without the pockets.
My husband also loves the one I bought him and we will definitely be getting some travel mileage out of these garments. They replace a few staples of travel clothing that we typically take with us, and we welcome any chance to streamline our travel packing. Thank you!!!
I bought this hoodie to keep me warm on my winter runs in Minnesota. I wanted a running jacket that wouldn’t just leave me encased in my own cold sweat, the way my synthetic jackets did. So far, so comfortable on runs down to 4F!
The only way this hoodie could be even better is if there were front pockets.
I ordered a size medium and am 5’8” tall, 35” full bust, 32” waist, and 42” low hip.
I was very reluctant to spend so much on a sweatshirt, but I’m glad I did! I love this sweatshirt so much!
Kept me so warm on the slopes, very happy with purchase
First off, let me just say that I have NEVER spent this much on anything let alone a hoodie, but after research and realizing that it will last me forever basically and is the best fabric on the planet... I decided to look for an alpaca Sweater. I wanted it to be humanly sourced if possible. And so I decided to go with this company. I received it in the mail (which I was a little worried since I had never tried it in and I spent $250, eek) but I am in love! I wear medium and it is true to size. Long sleeves which I like because I am tall and longer. Perfect thickness to keep me hella warm but still looks thin
