Step Into the Rarest Fiber on Earth

Most alpaca slippers use the fluffy "Huacaya" fiber. Our Suri Alpaca Slippers are crafted from the rare Suri breed—accounting for less than 10% of the global alpaca population. Known as the "Silk of the Andes," Suri fiber is prized for its shimmering luster, cooling touch, and elegant "waterfall" drape.

Why Suri Alpaca is the Gold Standard:

  • Microscopic Smoothness: Suri fibers have a lower scale profile than sheep’s wool or even standard alpaca, resulting in a silk-like texture that is zero-itch.

  • Naturally Lustrous: Unlike dull synthetic furs, Suri fiber reflects light with a natural, pearl-like shimmer that never fades.

  • The Lanolin-Free Advantage: 100% hypoallergenic. Because alpaca contains no lanolin (the oil in sheep’s wool), these are the safest choice for sensitive skin.

  • Ethical & Cruelty-Free: Sourced exclusively from alpacas that have naturally succumbed to the Andean winters. Your purchase supports a cooperative of 35 indigenous families.

Technical Specifications:

  • Exterior: 100% Genuine Rare Suri Alpaca Fur.

  • Interior: Fully lined with plush, thermal-regulating fiber.

  • Sole: Durable, non-slip padded suede.

INSPIRED PERU

Inspired Peru is an artisan cooperative consisting of 35 artisans; the majority are widows and heads of household from indigenous communities in the Peruvian highlands. Ethically sourced, local alpaca wool is used to craft products, such as stuffed animals and accessories, that celebrate the artisans’ ancestral and cultural heritage. The artisans generally work from the comfort of their home; however, they have access to a communal workshop in the city of Lima. At Inspired Peru, artisans are empowered to transmit their traditional skills to future generations while expanding their business and leadership skills. Artisans have access to skill development programs through Inspired Peru. We are proud to partner with artisans at Inspired Peru.

THE TECHNIQUE  

On average, six to eight artisans collaborate on the production of these stuffed animals. It takes about five days to craft each of these adorable, hypoallergenic stuffed animals. The process begins with artisans shaping molds and carefully sewing the body. Each animal’s face is separately constructed, giving each piece a very realistic flair. After carefully shaving the alpaca, the hair is washed and sun-dried for one to two days. Depending on the item, the artisans may dye the alpaca hair using vibrant colors. Dying involves additional hand-wash cycles to reach the desired color. Molds are separately made using flexible cardboard. Artisans carefully hand-glue the washed alpaca hair to the mold. Once dried, the hair is thoroughly hand-combed to reach its staple softness. No animal cruelty is involved in the sourcing of the alpaca hair.
