Description: Tāwharau Collection Vol. VI –  kākahu (Shirt)

One-of-a-kind, sample shirt reimagined through a Māori lens and urban flair. Each piece is hand-printed, telling its own indigenous narrative, no two are the same.

These are created with aroha, and designed for the bold, the conscious, and the unapologetically stylish. Each piece is commercially cleaned :)

Funky, urban Māori fashion meets cool design.

Kaupapa behind the design: Mana Motuhake is the expression of self-determination - the ability to shape our own future according to our values, beliefs, and traditions. It speaks to the strength, resilience, and autonomy to live life in a way that honours who we are.
