■Manufacturer's description quoted.
Made from 100% alpaca fibre, the All-Paca fleece parka is ultra-lightweight, breathable and packable.
Outdoor adventures Ideal for sports and activities, but also for hanging out.
Very warm for its weight.

Appalachian Gear Company's seams are strong and Appalachian Gear Company garments are made for backpacking and mountaineering.
It is strain-free and highly breathable.
The knit construction and fibre properties allow perspiration to escape easily while maintaining remarkable insulation properties.
Its excellent properties allow it to be worn in a wide range of temperatures.

The All-Paca fleece is designed to be worn with one or more layers underneath.
Alpaca fibre absorbs little moisture and dries quickly.
Appalachian Gear Company's fleece is not thick at all, is not bulky and is warmer than other types of bulky fleece.
Most importantly, alpaca retains its warmth even when wet.
Down and synthetic fabrics do not insulate well when wet.
Alpaca is truly one of nature's high performance fibres and is very soft and comfortable to wear.

○Trail Seam
Unique 100% alpaca fibre fabric with adventure-worthy seams.
Appalachian Gear Company's Trail Seam is designed to deliver incredible toughness and durability, ensuring that the gear will perform reliably under extreme stress and prolonged use.
Appalachian Gear Company hoodies and shirts have travelled thousands of miles and experienced millions of rubs under backpack straps.
And Appalachian Gear Company's Trail Seam consistently meets those stringent requirements.

○○ Weft knitwear
100% alpaca fibres are knitted into a unique fabric for superior performance.
Appalachian Gear Company's special knit construction is resistant to 'wire', so if you puncture a hole while in the backcountry, you need not worry about the hole getting longer, although it may get slightly larger over time.
It delivers the 'run' as experienced with many lightweight knits.

○ Lightweight
These shirts are not hesitant to be put in packs.

○ Regular fit style
Not too tight, not too loose.
It looks great and allows for all kinds of movement.
Natural fibres perform at their optimum level when they are given a little room to breathe.

○○ Long tail
Provides coverage and allows freedom of movement.

*Alpaca is a variable natural fibre and the weight may vary from lot to lot.
Men's Allpaca parkas range in weight from 10-14 oz, depending on size.
*Because the fabric is highly elastic, there may be slight variations depending on how the fabric is placed and measured.
*These garments are usually sized for a normal fit, not a compression fit.
If a more dynamic fit is required, the size can be reduced.

■Care.
It is not necessary to wash these garments frequently.
It is recommended that shirts and hoodies are worn 8-10 times before washing to acclimatise them to the body shape.
Just hang it up when actively sweating. Alpaca leaves no odour and prevents bacterial growth.
As it is an animal fibre, it is susceptible to insect damage and, like wool, should be kept free from insects.
However, washing will not damage the hoodie.

▪ Use low to medium load, cold water, light cycle (normal cycle OK) and wash with other high-performance materials and socks.
It is recommended not to wash large quantities of laundry or with heavy fabrics such as jeans or towels.

Use normal detergents. Do not use 'washing soda', chlorine bleach, peroxide bleach or 'oxygen-based detergents'.

Tumble dry the garment with other similar items on low heat.
Drying only takes approximately 10-15 minutes. Drying over medium to high heat or with large quantities of jeans or towels is not recommended.

Fleece products do not shrink much.

When garments are received, they may be slightly flattened or stiff due to shipping or folding.
If this happens, turn the garment inside out and place it in the dryer without heat (fluffing cycle) using three or four wool dryer balls and rotate it for 15-20 minutes. This will cause the garment to fluff.

○When normal detergents are not available due to backpacking, travelling, etc.
-Backpacking: rinse with river water and allow to dry naturally. Do not use detergents and follow the principle of leaving no traces.
-When travelling: use shampoo, neutral liquid dish/hand detergent (1-2 drops), rinse in sink, wring out and hang dry or place on towels to dry.

The specifications (logo position, colour, pattern position, etc.) may differ slightly from those of this product as the manufacturer's images are used.
