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 the extra warmth simple. This men's 300 g/m² Alpaca sweater adds a long-sleeve pullover layer without a hood or front zip, ready for cool trails and travel days.
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 pullover design gives you a knit layer for cooler days without a hood or front zipper.
The knit holds air close to your body for insulation, while its open structure allows air to move through as your effort changes.

There is no doubt the first touch out of the box is soft and luxurious. However once I put it on it was very itchy on the skin. I one half a dozen smartwool shirts, 100% pure wool and those are much softer when wearing.
I'm hoping if I wear this a few times it will soften up on the skin or I'll get used to it? At the price point I was expecting very soft on my skin!
The fit is good, I purchased a large and I am 6'2, 185lbs. I though the wrist opening was a bit too loose and could be snugger.
I sleep in these garments with the bedroom at 50F. I wear them mountain biking and bike commuting in winter weather, and stay warm enough but never get overheated or sweaty. I don't want to, but I will remove them to shake/air them out and grab an occasional shower. I've tried merino blends (100% merino is too fragile). I've tried hemp blends (gets that funky pit smell from even day of wear just like any plastic workout garbage).
Across 4 seasons and various activities, 100% cotton, 100% linen, and 100% ARMS OF ANDES alpaca wool complete me as a non-nudist. I'm so done with synthetic textiles. ALL HAIL THE ALPACA
Some may worry about itchiness. One gentle cold wash was enough the tame the itchiness when brand new..
It is way too scratchy. I cannot wear it as a base layer.
It was a gift for my stepson. He is one of my favorite people, so I love to make him smile! He said this one is great and he is an experienced alpaca shopper. This gift made him happy!
Very pleased with my Alpaca wool sweater from Arms of the Andes.
This garment is high-quality, well-sewn, clearly durable.
It's also comfy, compact, incredibly warm for weight, and good looking, too.
Highly recommended.
