Behind our Pakihi ♥
We’re a whānau-led pakihi rooted in Aotearoa, creating thoughtful, everyday pieces inspired by Te ao Māori.
What started as a simple idea — to blend culture, comfort, and connection — has grown into something much bigger than us.
Every design is made with aroha, shaped by our stories, our tamariki, and our tūpuna. We're here to celebrate identity, nurture belonging, and bring a little piece of home into every whare.
At the heart of our pakihi, we believe in the power of whakapapa — the connection between our past, present, and future.
Every stitch, every pattern, tells a story that is both ours and yours.
Our kākahu is inspired by the land, the sea, and the Māori traditions that have shaped us. We’ve poured our hearts into creating something meaningful, something that feels like a warm awhi for those who wear it.
We're here to uplift and support our community, honouring the essence of whanaungatanga — the relationships and connections that bind us all together. Whether it’s through our clothing, our products, or the values we live by, we hope to spark a sense of pride and connection to Aotearoa, no matter where you are. ♡
Thank you for being part of our journey, and for supporting a vision that celebrates the beauty of being Māori and the strength of whānau.
We are so proud and grateful at all the support and aroha we've had within the small time of having our little pakihi and we wouldn't be here without all of your support.
We are so excited to see where this journey takes us.
Thank you for choosing our little pakihi.
We are honoured to be apart of your whānau and look forward to grow together ♡
