The Suri alpaca is a member of the camelid family. Whilst there is only one species of Alpaca in the world, there are different fleeces, which are often referred to as breeds.
Suri alpacas are rare, even in their native South America, comprising only 2% of the world’s alpaca population. Their fleece is longer, silkier, and hangs from their bodies in long locks.
Suri Alpaca is a soft, durable, luxurious and silky natural fibre. Whilst similar to sheep's wool, it is warmer, softer, and has no lanolin - which makes it hypoallergenic.
The Joe Bananas Suri Peacoat is the epitome of luxury. Extraordinarily lightweight, exceptionally soft to the touch, and impeccably stylish. It must be worn to be believed.
Love the shirt which is more ivory than white. Quality of the linen and buttons is fabulous as is the workmanship. The size L is a throwback to the days when Joe Bananas size L was equivalent to everyone else's XL, but this will apparently be changing as new stock arrives.
I very much like the vibrant colours, unique patterns and quality garments that Joe Bananas have on offer. Just can’t resist buying something that catches my eye.
The idiom “ look and feel a million dollars” comes to mind.
