Our Story


  • After a brotherʻs trip to Pachaj Sutoc, a remote community in the Urubamba mountain range in Peru, Juanca, Patrick and Ian Sznak experienced the freezing weather conditions first hand. Bitter cold and frost made life difficult for these already vulnerable communities, especially children.
    There was an urgent need for warmth. At that moment the brothers decided to
    • be changemakers, to demonstrate that their energy could be used for good and that companies must not only exist to generate employment, pay taxes and distribute profits, but also – and above all – to help people make informed purchasing decisions. They chose to create a business that could influence our future.

  • At Hösėg we have developed a unique technology that explores the enormous virtues of alpaca fiber. These beautiful animals live at over 16,000 feet above sea level and are able to resist and adapt to extreme temperature fluctuations.

    • The alpacas live free in the Andes making this fiber an organic one by default. Its delicate hoof and feeding habits do not degrade the soil and, as an animal-sourced fiber, water consumption is significantly reduced throughout the manufacturing process. Finally, alpacas do not suffer in the shearing process, which makes this wonderful fiber animal friendly and planet friendly.
