I really really love paka apparel. It's super comfy as a mid layer. Their socks are also pretty awesome (and have a lifetime warranty) Arms of Andes is also another great alpaca wool apparel.

I love doing reviews. Especially when its 10 degrees out. Love their products. Just bought their new Alpaca-down cold weather jacket. Looking forward to using it to.

Between the hoodie and vida which one is warmer?

Enjoy the company. Definitely enjoy the anti smelly nature of alpaca wool.

Im 5.9 and 162lbs do you think I can get away with a S size ? I like athletic fit and the reviews on their page say they run relaxed /loose fit (?) usually I’m between S and M in hoodies . How much does it weight ? The crew . Im not liking the hood , it’s just bulk and weight I will use the hood of my sunhoodie underneath and/or my beenie :) Thank you for your help

I own three styles. All fit the same to me. All of mine are medium. Im 5’ 11’’ and 165-170lbs. I think a small would feel rather snug. Weight avg15-16oz

Which of the three is the lightest? Very concerned with weight of my overall pack, and every ounce counts. Thanks

I added weights for each sweater into video description notes based on mens medium sizing

Yes all my Paka sweaters are medium. All fit the same fitting as other medium brands I own. This also includes my new Pakafill Puffer jacket also from Paka. Also a medium and fits well.
