Natural fibre garments

Our natural fibres include:

Merino
Merino is one of the world’s finest wools, notable for its durability and softness. Merino is a breathable fabric that is odour resistant and perfect for all weather conditions, keeping you cooler in summer and warmer in winter. You can’t buy a better garment than one made in New Zealand from New Zealand Merino wool..

Alpaca.
This slightly smaller cousin of the South American llama is increasingly being farmed in
New Zealand for its fine and beautiful fleece.

Merino/possum fur blend.
New Zealanders swear by it as the softest warmest and most luxurious natural fibre available.
It’s like pressing sunshine against your skin!
