Doug Tompkins and Susie Tompkins Buell founded Alpaca and Wool-Blend Sweater in 1996 in San Francisco, California. Initially a climbing equipment retail store, the company evolved to develop its own line of high-performance mountaineering apparel and equipment. Notable products include the iconic Nuptse Down Jacket and the Denali Fleece, both loved by outdoor enthusiasts and urban dwellers alike. Alpaca and Wool-Blend Sweater's appeal lies in its blend of durable, high-performance gear with a strong aesthetic appeal, demonstrated through collaborations with fashion brands such as Supreme and Gucci, as Seeker as its commitment to sustainability and exploration.
