Avocado – Alpaca Ribbed Wide-Leg Pant
$136.00
Materials of Product
The Alpaca Ribbed Wide-Leg Pant is sustainably made with 100% ethically sourced, renewable baby alpaca fiber. “Baby Alpaca fiber” is a reference to the finest, softest wool on the animal (typically the chest), and not its age.ย Baby Alpaca fiber is also naturally hypoallergenic, breathable, renewable, and biodegradable. They source their alpaca fiber from a regenerative farm in the Peruvian Andes.
Delivery of Product
๐ย Instead of shipping returned mattresses around the country, Avocado prioritizes donations to local shelters and those in need
๐ย For the energy Avocado consumes, they match 100% of it with purchases of renewable energy certificates from wind farms. This drives clean energy to the grid and supports the growth of sustainable fuel sources.ย
Product Use / End Life
๐ย Avocado's mattresses are made with organic, natural, biodegradable materials like latex, wool, and cotton that can be recycled and reused or allowed to biodegrade. As a result, materials are returned to nature with less impact on landfills than polyurethane mattresses. Avocado products also contain innovative materials created from waste and scraps.
