This Jacket was designed and bought to life locally by us in collaboration with our skilled seamstress who we work closely alongside to ensure a quality finish.
This garment is versatile and looks great both dressed up, or kept casual, it is a unisex style and looks awesome on both wahine and tāne
This jacket is heat pressed with our Matariki tohu.
Tohu Matariki
This tohu is called Matariki. She is placed in the centre of this tohu amongst her eight children. The Poutama (ascending) and Pouhine (descending) each represent a learning from each of the stars.
Below is a brief explanation of each star and what they represent.
Ngā whetū o Matariki
-Waitī: Fresh water
-Waitā: Salt water
-Waipunārangi: Rain
-Tupuānuku: Kai from the ground
-Tupuārangi: Kai from the sky (trees birds etc)
-Ururangi: Winds
-Hiwa-i-te-rangi: Wishing star sending Dreams and desires
-Pōhutukawa: the star that takes our loved ones that have passed on to their next journey in the next world
-Matariki: the mother star of all of the above. She herself is associated with good health and well-being for all
We designed this tohu alongside Josh Hurae @Ukaipōarts who really helped bring our whakaaro (thoughts) to life.
