Nothing beats a piece of technical outdoor apparel that also looks so nice that you can wear it out to “special event” locations, even straight out of the mountains! Designed with outdoor pursuits foremost in mind, this crewneck sweater is made from a blend of warm, odor-resistant, and highly-comfortable alpaca fiber, fine merino wool, and nylon that make it durable enough to withstand use and abuse in the great outdoors.
Odor resistance in any outdoor apparel has its limits, as my wife reminded me, so you’ll still need to occasionally wash this beauty. The alpaca fiber helps make the Mountain Crew sweater three times lighter than standard wool and contributes to its exceptional softness that may compel adventure mates to impulsively start petting your arm. MSRP: $145. Pakaapparel.com
