Weta Gear is the official clothing and accessories brand of Weta, introducing high quality New Zealand made products available to the public for the first time. Made from blended Paihama and Merino wool these accessories provide a luxurious warmth with a lightness of weave.

Merino sheep provide some of the very best yarn in New Zealand, while Paihama is unique to New Zealand, the hollow fibres are among the lightest and warmest natural fibres on the planet.

Paihama (the Maori name for Possums) are considered a noxious pest in New Zealand where they have caused significant damage to native forests and bird life such as the Kiwi. Blended together, the two fibres provide a warmth previously unknown in sheep's wool alone while remaining lightweight and comfortable.

All scarves and beanies are made proudly in New Zealand.
