Yes, they are! After extensive research, we’ve found that alpaca fiber is simply unmatched when it comes to socks. While many people in New Zealand are familiar with merino wool, alpaca fiber takes it up a notch. It’s warmer, softer, and more durable than merino, offering superior temperature regulation and natural odor resistance. If you're looking for the best natural fiber for socks, Pacos alpaca socks are the ultimate choice for comfort and performance.

PACOS was founded by a young entrepreneur from New Zealand, inspired by the unmatched qualities of alpaca fibre and its potential to redefine premium natural clothing. With a vision to create high-quality, sustainable alternatives to synthetic fabrics, we started with socks—just the beginning of what’s to come. As demand for natural fibres grows, PACOS is committed to leading the way. Our trusted manufacturing partner in China was chosen for their world-class expertise in alpaca textiles, ensuring every product meets our high standards. This is just the start—stay tuned for what’s next! 👀

Our alpaca wool is ethically sourced from farms where alpacas are shorn once a year, typically in spring. This process is completely humane and essential for the alpacas’ health, preventing them from overheating in warmer months. The wool is then carefully cleaned, spun, and crafted into our premium socks. Unlike synthetic fibers, alpaca wool is a natural, sustainable material that provides exceptional warmth, breathability, and comfort.

Alpaca socks outperform merino in key areas: they’re warmer, softer, and more durable. Alpaca fibres are naturally water-resistant and wick moisture better, keeping your feet dry and comfortable in any condition. Plus, they’re hypoallergenic and don’t retain odors like merino wool. For the ultimate blend of luxury and practicality, alpaca socks are simply unbeatable.
