Noble, incredibly fine and warm sweater in natural tones made of high-quality baby llama, one of the most valuable yarns of natural origin from South America. The product is Carbon Neutral certified and the loose V-neck sweater with extra long sleeves with small slits has a favorite piece character.
Baby llama has a unique fiber quality that comes from shearing the younger animal. The "weeding" process to obtain a fine fiber is very complex.
The model (1.6 m) is wearing size S.
Our responsibility to the earth: climate neutral and ecological.
The llamas come from the mountain valleys of the Andes in Argentina up to an altitude of about 4000 m and grow freely. These animals are used to living in high, cold and dry areas and are kept by small producers and farmers. The llamas are only sheared by specialists on site (the llamas remain in their environment) with special scissors. Trimming usually takes about 20 minutes per animal. Unlike mechanical shearing, the animal is sheared gently, also because the hair is not too short and otherwise the animal would no longer have sufficient protection against temperature fluctuations, precipitation, etc. at this altitude in the Andes.

Warm – Soft – Breathable – Climate neutral
Noble and high-quality llama wool is characterized by its special properties: it is warm, very light, resistant and has excellent insulating properties. Our partner in Argentina has offset its environmental footprint through this product certified by Carbon Capital. Firstly, Carbon Credit Capital has calculated the carbon emissions generated during the production of this garment. This includes the materials used, the manufacturing phase, the packaging and the distribution of the finished products to the store where they are sold. Additionally, when our sweater is sold, the additional price goes toward projects that actively remove or destroy greenhouse gases from the atmosphere, while creating jobs and transforming communities in Argentina.
Therefore, the sweater is not only organic, but is now also climate neutral.
