Poncho Arena Dune
Weight: 570 gr. | Material: 100% certified Baby Alpaca AIA | L: 164 cm - W: 130 cm
The sand of the Andean valleys is not a single color—it's a range of muted golds, warm beiges, and creams that change with the daylight. The Arena Dune Poncho captures that palette in its purest tone: the ultimate neutral for a garment that already has its own presence and character.
The poncho is the emblematic garment of the Andes, perfected over centuries by the alpaca communities of Peru. In baby alpaca certified by the International Alpaca Association (AIA), this tradition reaches its most refined expression: a 570g piece that provides warmth like no other accessory, with the softness of a fiber three times finer than cashmere and completely hypoallergenic.
Hand-finished by Peruvian artisans specializing in Andean textile tradition, each piece reflects the work of generations dedicated to the art of alpaca weaving.
How to wear it: Sand is the most versatile neutral in the wardrobe. Draped over the shoulders for the day, tied at the waist for a more defined look, or used as a blanket on long trips. It pairs with black, white, camel, and green.
Care: Hand wash with cold water and mild wool detergent. Do not wring. Dry flat.
