Protect the Andes
A long-term commitment to the land, the people, and the ecosystems behind our materials.
Protecting What Gives Us Everything
They are more than our origin. The Andes are a living ecosystem of communities, wildlife, and traditions that deserve long-term care, respect, and protection.
Beyond the product
Where fashion falls short
Much of the fashion industry prioritizes speed and scale over quality, separating products from the people, land, and resources behind them. Value is often measured at the moment of sale, not by the impact left behind.
In the Andes, exceptional fibers are rooted in the land, the animals, and the communities who care for them. When that value fails to return, livelihoods weaken and ecosystems suffer. Protecting the Andes means designing responsibility into every decision, ensuring success supports the people and places that make it possible.
Our approach
1% TO PROTECT THE ANDES
Meaningful products start with respect for the land, the animals, and the communities that sustain them. In the Andes, preserving rare fibers depends on thriving ecosystems, responsible animal care, and resilient livelihoods.
Through our philanthropic commitment, we dedicate one percent of our annual profits to the ANDEALPA Association, supporting initiatives that protect the environment, safeguard wildlife, and strengthen local communities. Every piece you choose helps ensure that value flows back to the people and landscapes that make our work possible.
