Alpaca Chullo hats help wearers retain heat, even in extreme cold

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) August 15, 2011 -- People who need to stay active during cold winter months find chullo hats to be a necessity. Since the majority of a person’s body heat escapes through their heads, a good hat is imperative for comfort in cold temperatures. Chullo ear flaps, offset for a natural fit, protect the ears. And, the braided ties can be secured under the chin to keep them in place even in extremely windy conditions.

The outer layer is knit from a blend of 50% alpaca and 50% acrylic so that they can handle snowflakes galore without shrinking or bunching. The inside is fleece lined for extra softness and warmth. Combined, these two toasty, durable layers look good year after year and can withstand multiple washings. These chullo hats are available in a variety of colorful patterns as well as solid colors.

Perfect for hiking, skiing, snow shoeing, winter camping, mountain climbing or even just walking the dog in the cold and snow, Chullo hats help people stay active despite falling temperatures. And, similar to SmartWool®, alpaca wool has moisture-wicking properties that keep wearers dry and comfortable – so they can keep braving the elements.

They’re light weight, breathable, soft, durable and warm. At $30 per pair, they are an affordable, high-quality outdoor-wear staple.

Alpaca fiber is prized for its remarkably soft texture, light weight and warmth. A natural fiber that keeps the best qualities of wool, alpaca has far less prickle factor because each strand of baby and superfine fiber has far fewer microscopic barbs than sheep and lambs’ wool. Similar to cashmere, the highest quality alpaca fiber, baby alpaca, can be worn against the skin and has a silky smoothness. Because alpacas do not secrete lanolin as sheep do, most people can wear alpaca without allergic reactions.

Sirius Alpacas is a family farm in Chardon, Ohio that raises and boards alpacas for fun, therapy and profit. The farm uses its fleeces in the production of high-quality yarns and felted goods. Sirius Alpacas also imports fair-trade Andean items from Peru and Bolivia, offering the style and culture of South American goods while helping the farmers, artists and craftsmen of that region.
