These beautifully soft gloves are made of 100% baby alpaca, one of the world's finest fibers.   While fingerless gloves are very popular, you've been asking for full coverage gloves, so here they are. The wrist part is double layered for extra warmth, and it has a touch of purple mixed in with the gray (see close up photo).

Considered by many a higher quality material than cashmere, alpaca is one of the world’s most valuable natural fibers. Just ask any Incan Emperor why only the royal families were allowed to wear it!  It is luxuriously soft (not at all itchy), hypoallergenic, breathable, warm, lightweight and durable.  Best of all, it is a natural, eco-friendly fiber and the artisans are paid fair wages.  

100% Baby Alpaca

ABOUT THE ARTISANS

Our baby alpaca hats and gloves are handmade in a fair trade cooperative in the highlands of Peru.  The talented artisans create extremely high quality products and are paid excellent wages.  The families have found their lives greatly improved by having a U.S. market to sell their goods, thus creating more economic prosperity and self reliance.
