Long Baby Alpaca Raglan-Jacket with Scarf-Collar, links-knit
This jacket combines a geometric cut with exquisite material: extremely delicate baby alpaca make it particularly soft and supple, raglan sleeves and a generous shawl collar ensure a casual, elegant look and a high level of comfort. By the way: The model is a little longer on the back than on the front!
About the Alpaca:
A South American relative of the camel, the Alpaca lives in the Andean highlands under extreme climatic conditions at elevations of 4000 to 6000 meters (13,000 to 20,000 ft). On a single day, the animal may be exposed to snow, hail, rain, a burning sun, and nightly temperatures that could reach minus 30 Celsius (-22F).
But nature has prepared it well: a silky, glowing, unusually fine but nonetheless sturdy and elastic hair protects it from the harsch environment. Alpaca fiber is not only very thin, it is also straiter, and has a smoother surface than sheep’s wool, which explains why alpaca doesn't pill, and why alpaca garments keep their shape well.
