Natural Motorcycle Gear from Alpaca

Motorcycling Alpacas?

Ok, I have two loves that have been in my life a LONG time. Alpacas and Motorcycles! Kind of an odd mix you might think but oddly, they seem to go together very well!  Though usually I can be seen riding a large touring motorcycle through the Western half of the USA, last year I combined the two loves like never before as we rode a 650cc Suzuki V-Strom (a "WeeStrom") motorcycle through the beautiful country of Ecuador!

  

In our travels we found an very interesting set of never before seen alpaca items. These items are not generally available in the USA:

Ecuador Alpaca Discoveries

There are more to come.  Stay tuned for to see more of these items, the amazing Ex-Patriot Americans involved in Ecuador's emerging alpaca industry and other developments of the alpaca industry in Ecuador. In the meantime, please take a look at the beautiful sites and styles of Ecuador on our Ecuador travel photos page:

Ecuador Alpaca Research Trip

We hope it will inspire you to go there! The people are nice, climate is pleasant and there's just soooo much to see in this tiny country the size of Colorado. They use the U.S. dollar as their currency. How easy is that!? If you are interested in travel in Ecuador, by motorcycle or otherwise, please ask us for info! We'll be happy to share tips and ideas.

We spent 10 days on the road and covered a large amount of the high mountains which is alpaca country in Ecuador. Being at the top of mountains in Spring we got to test out a lot of our cold weather gear and rain gear! We had alpaca gloves, alpaca hats, alpaca socks, alpaca scarves, alpaca long johns(!), alpaca vests and alpaca blankets. For the adventure motorcyclist, alpaca is ideal! It's natural, warm, resists moisture, resists odor and is naturally soft, comfortable and durable. We surely put our gear to the test!

Though I can wear the SAME alpaca socks for days on end without "offending", a quick wash in the sink and a rapid air dry (it does not hold water) and they are 100% ready to go again.  Many of our motorcycling friends and customers wear our Choice Brand Superwarm alpaca socks and OutdoorAdventure alpaca socks for road trips. They're perfect for motorcycle boots due their warmth, breath-ability and natural resistance to foot odor. Friends also enjoy the SlipperBootie alpaca short socks for "motel camping" after getting out of the motorcycle boots for the night.

“In this age of high stress living, many people are turning to the natural appeal of alpaca. They see the beauty and gentle nature of the animal as well as its natural appeal”, says Brian Schieber, PurelyAlpaca.com President, himself once an owner of a two different alpaca farms.

Alpaca is still a relatively unknown clothing fiber in North America. It has been compared to cashmere and angora though alpaca advocates point out its superior qualities. 

The recent reawakening of interest in the fiber arts (spinning, knitting and weaving) has seen a great interest in alpaca fiber whether raw or as yarn. “Alpaca fiber is currently extremely popular as a material for warm and naturally wicking socks”, says Schieber.

Along with 100s of products made commercially in the USA and South America, PurelyAlpaca offers unique artistic creations, clothing or other items which utilize or are about alpaca. 

The company is always on the lookout for new and interesting creations made from this extremely versatile natural fiber, especially when these creations support USA alpaca farms.

Alpaca Product Offerings Continue to Grow in the USA Market

Here at PurelyAlpaca we are constantly watching and participating in the world of alpaca fashion and alpaca gifts. This year we're seeing a continuation of the rapid growth of the industry on many fronts. This is great news for those of us who are, at the core, alpaca enthusiasts!

This year we're seeing new large companies getting into the fashion mix. Michell Mills, one of the largest alpaca companies in Peru is offering new lines of excellent contemporary alpaca fashion. In their first year, expect to see a lot coming from them in the future. They tell us they're also ramping up a socks service.

The small country of Ecuador is offering a number of new products as they continue to re-awaken their alpaca farming and products industry. We met with American Ex-Pats working in Ecuador as alpaca farmers and running small alpaca mills producing unique and high quality products for the "Western" market. This 100% Natural Alpaca is 100% Natural colors, with no dyes or artificial chemicals!  

In the USA there is an increasing drive to produce American alpaca products. We are very excited at efforts to develop a large scale mill capable of producing commercial cone sock yarn. As a company selling tens or thousands of high quality alpaca socks annually, we encourage this development with all our enthusiasm! 

PurelyAlpaca.com and its wholesale sister company Choice Alpaca Products will continue to seek out and produce new and interesting alpaca products for the retail and wholesale markets. 

We welcome partnerships on all levels and encourage you to join us in promoting alpaca!!
