FAQ

What is the The Francesca Sweater made of?

It is 100% alpaca.

Is alpaca safe to wear?

Alpaca is no lanolin and a smooth surface, often gentler on skin than sheep wool. Toxome rates every fiber on what it does to the body of the person wearing it, and publishes the reasoning rather than a badge. The score covers the fiber, not the dyes and finishes a mill adds later.

How does Toxome score clothing?

Toxome reads each garment's fiber composition and scores it on what that fiber does to your body, not on a brand's sustainability marketing. A higher score means a cleaner fiber. Composition is taken from what the brand publishes, so the score reflects the label rather than our opinion of it.
