Vicuna Socks
VICUÑA
The Story
VICUÑA is a wonderful and beautiful animal, which lives high up in the Andes in extremely harsh conditions. They live in altitudes from 2500m to over 4500m where temperatures can vary between -20 to +30C in one day! The Vicuna still manages to develop the finest hair in the world; silky, smooth and durable.
We fell in love with this beautiful little animal and decided to build our brand on these attributes: to deliver luxurious performance products for the outdoor world with amazing yarns and fabrics which are naturally luxurious, degradable and ethically sourced.
To own a Vicuña garment should make you feel luxurious and comfortable and be assured, all our products are well designed and great for use in the outdoor world. Whatever your passion is - hiking, skiing, fishing or just a soft and warm sock for those cold winter days in your wellington boots.
Vicuña has a great commitment to the world around us.We choose suppliers carefully, not only to receive the finest yarns but also not come at the expense of the environment.
