The Warrior Alpaca Base Camp is a heavyweight crew sock flat-knit from a thick alpaca blend in a ragg-wool style, built for cold-weather hiking, hunting, camping and outdoor work. The blend is 50% alpaca, 41% acrylic, 8% nylon and 1% Lycra, so it insulates like wool but contains no sheep's wool and no lanolin, which suits people who find wool itchy. Alpaca wicks moisture and stays warm when damp, and the reinforced heel and toe plus a seamless toe seam target the usual wear and blister points. Against merino hiking socks it is thicker and warmer but less breathable for fast summer climbs, and it needs air drying rather than a tumble dryer.

Owners of alpaca hiking socks of this type consistently praise the warmth-to-weight balance and the lack of itch, and report that feet stay dry through long cold days. Common complaints are that the socks run warm in mild conditions and that the thick knit wears or pills at high-friction points over time.

The Base Camp Crew socks are heavyweight alpaca socks for hiking, hunting, camping and outdoor work in cold conditions. They are flat-knit from thick alpaca yarn in a ragg-wool style and sit at crew height.
The toe and heel are extra-reinforced for durability on the trail. The toe seam is seamless and smooth to reduce friction. Alpaca fiber regulates temperature and wicks moisture away from the foot to help keep it warm and dry.
The socks are hypoallergenic and contain no sheep's wool or lanolin.
