Alpaca knit - a natural riding shirt without equal
When shopping for a riding shirt, technical materials may be the first thing that comes to mind. However, there is also a natural fiber that can be used to make the perfect riding shirt. Royal quality alpaca wool is an incomparably beautiful and versatile natural fiber that offers several advantages over technical or other natural fibers.
Why does Alpaca Royal material make the perfect riding shirt?
Heat-regulating, dirt and water repellent
Alpaca wool is known for its unique thermoregulation properties. It keeps you warm in cold weather and cool in warm weather. In addition, the high-quality Alpaca Royal fiber (< 18 µm) is extremely water-repellent and even a light drizzle will not wet the garment at all. This makes Royal quality alpaca fiber the ideal choice for riding clothing where you are exposed to body temperature fluctuations and different weather conditions. Whether you are riding in the cool of the morning or in the middle of a sunny day, you can be confident that your alpaca wool clothing will keep you comfortable throughout your ride.
Breathable
Horse riding is a physical activity where the body produces heat and moisture. Alpaca wool is naturally breathable, superior to all other fibers. It allows air to circulate and moisture to evaporate. This keeps your skin dry, even if you sweat while riding. Alpaca wool also does not absorb odors, is hypoallergenic and antibacterial.
Lightweight and durable
High-quality Royal grade alpaca wool is a very warm material, it is light and soft and does not itch even on sensitive skin. The Royal alpaca shirt from Ruukki spinning mill is durable, long-lasting and retains its appearance for an exceptionally long time.
Organic riding sweater
If you value ecological alternatives, alpaca wool is your choice. Alpacas are animals bred for wool production that live in the mountains of Peru. As a camelid, the alpaca uses little water and clothing made from its wool rarely needs washing. Alpaca does not consume the soil when grazing, but promotes biodiversity. Alpaca Royal knitwear is so-called 24/7 clothing for both leisure, outdoor activities and business wear, which makes alpaca knitwear an environmentally friendly alternative for horse riding as well.
Stylish appearance
Functionality first and foremost, but a riding shirt should also be stylish. Alpaca Royal fiber is not only a functional material, it also looks great. It offers a natural shine and softness, which makes the clothes look stylish and sophisticated. .
