Samantha Holmes Rib Cushion Alpaca Socks

Once reserved for Inca royalty, alpaca fibre is prized for its rare combination of strength, lustre, and luxurious softness. Samantha Holmes uses only premium alpaca yarn sourced from two well-established Peruvian mills, where fleece is carefully sorted and graded by natural colour and micron count (the fineness of each fibre).

The Alpaca fur featured in Samantha Holmes products is 100% natural and ethically sourced from herd wastage in the Andes of Peru. No Alpacas are harmed in the making of these pieces.

Thanks to its unique hollow fibre structure, alpaca is exceptionally lightweight while offering superior warmth compared to the same weight of merino wool. The result is beautifully soft, high-performance knitwear designed for both comfort and longevity.
