The winner will get to choose the sizing from the brand’s men’s and women’s collections that fit best.

Alpacas have been adapting to the ever-changing weather of the Andes Mountains, and that’s what the brand aims to emulate. Arms of Andes was founded by a sibling duo from Los Angeles who grew up under the influence of Peruvian parents.

Each vacation was a trip to explore their ancestral home, and they were fascinated by the contrast between the two cultures. The siblings claim that because of alpaca wool’s adaptability benefits, it’s ideal for outdoor adventures.

Every product made at Arms and Andes is 100% biodegradable due to the brand’s commitment to natural materials. To keep the company’s carbon footprint low, it kept manufacturing in Peru rather than shipping across multiple countries. In Peruvian culture, family is a major cornerstone. This is reflected in the brand’s name: “’Arms’ is a combination of the first name initials of us four siblings, and our roots are ‘of the Andes,'” the founders said.
