About Purely Alpaca
Since then, Purely Alpaca has grown from a small farm store into a leading brand known for its award-winning alpaca products, blending artisanal craftsmanship with modern design. Their move to Ramona, California in 2016 gave them space to expand, ship faster, and continue innovating with new alpaca apparel and accessories.
What makes alpaca so special? Unlike traditional wool, alpaca fiber is lightweight, luxuriously soft, non-itchy, and naturally hypoallergenic. Its semi-hollow fibers act as excellent insulators, keeping you warm even when wet, while also being moisture-wicking and odor-resistant. This makes alpaca the “smarter wool”—eco-friendly, durable, and incredibly comfortable.
🌎 Sustainability at Its Core
Alpacas themselves are gentle on the earth:
They eat less than other livestock.
Their soft padded feet protect the soil.
Even their manure makes an excellent, balanced fertilizer.
And because alpaca fiber processing is non-polluting and requires only simple soap, it’s one of the most sustainable textiles available.
🧦 Customer Favorite of 2024
At Clozist, our customers fell in love with Purely Alpaca’s socks—so much so that they became our best-selling product of 2024. With their durability, non-slip soles, moisture control, and cloud-like comfort, these socks are more than just footwear—they’re an experience in everyday luxury.
