The Vintage Finds Story

Every piece in our Vintage Finds collection already lived one life before it found us — and instead of letting it disappear, we gave it another. It's real vintage alpaca, saved one piece at a time.

Why We Do Vintage

Alpaca fiber is built to outlast almost anything else in your closet — it's part of why we make new alpaca knitwear in the first place. So when a genuinely good vintage alpaca piece turns up, the most sustainable thing we can do isn't to leave it behind, it's to give it a second home. No new fiber has to be grown, spun, or shipped for a piece that already exists and still has years of wear left in it.

How Each Piece Is Found

We don't manufacture Vintage Finds — we find them, one piece at a time, wherever something turns up that's actually worth saving. Every item is inspected before it's listed, and what you see in the shop is the genuine, single piece we found — not a reproduction or a new run made to look old.

No Two Alike

Because each piece is the actual vintage garment we found, not a reissue, every item in Vintage Finds is a genuine one of one — one size, one quantity, listed exactly once. When a piece sells, that specific coat, jacket, or sweater is gone for good; we won't be restocking it, because there's nothing left to restock.
