🌄 About the Makers
These gloves are made by Allpa, a Peruvian artisan collective with 80 workshops spread across the country. Allpa supports weavers with training, technical assistance, and fair market access — turning skilled craftspeople into independent entrepreneurs while preserving centuries of Peruvian textile tradition.
Alpaca has been prized since the time of the Incas, used exclusively by royalty for its unmatched softness and warmth. Today, alpacas still roam freely in the Peruvian Andes highlands, and their soft padded feet cause no damage to the land they graze on. Their fibre comes in up to 28 natural colours and requires no harsh dyes or chemicals to produce — making it one of the most sustainable luxury fibres available.
