Ngā mihi, The Merchant of Aroha x.
Tuku iho, he tapu te upoko. From our ancestors, the head is sacred.
Our Kohupātiki Collection seeks to honour, protect, and cherish our upoko (head) in the same way we do with pounamu — one of the most tapu (sacred) parts of our being.
Just as pounamu is gifted as a symbol of protection, love, honour, and vitality, each pōtae in this collection carries that same intention.
No two pōtae are the same — each hat is unique, just as you are, created to adorn and express your individual story.
