Why Buy Peruvian Pima Cotton?
Peruvian Pima cotton is prized all around the world as a luxury fiber and is called 'gamuza' by the Peruvians, meaning suede in Spanish because of its silky soft feel and brilliant luster. The silky soft feel is a result of the excellent growing conditions in the northern coastal valleys of Peru where it is cultivated.
Harvested by hand
Peruvian pima cotton is harvested by hand, resulting in a brilliant white shade that can be easily dyed. Cotton harvested industrially leaves scratchy impurities, which affect smoothness and creates a yellowish color to the fiber. This fiber is classified as luxury because of its 1 3/8" length, ordinary cottons measure half to three quarters as much in length.
Easy care
This fabric can be easily machine washed (gentle) or dry cleaned, is practical and easy to maintain and will last through many years of use.
Hubby works outdoors and our winters are brutal. His new Alpaca socks are a Godsend! He said he hasn't been more excited over a gift, since his first BB gun! For the first time in years, his feet stay warm and dry. I am happy to add your company to my "favorites" list! Thank you.
