Red Bands – A Kiwi Icon
You’ll find them everywhere from the farm to the building site, to the back step at home and the sideline of footy fields all over New Zealand, and even abroad. It’s fair to say you could come across a pair of Red Bands pretty much anywhere at any time.
Red Band Featured
A true NZ icon, Red Bands have been loved by Kiwis for over 60 years. Get styled for summer with our Red Bandal range!
Kiwi Gumboots
They have become part of the Kiwi landscape and our national identity alongside other Kiwiana icons like the All Blacks, Buzzy Bees, Number 8 wire and the Edmonds Cookery Book. One of NZ’s most popular satirical characters, Fred Dagg, famously always wore Skellerup made gumboots, the Marathon and the Perth, and coined the famous phrase, “If it weren’t for your gumboots where would you be?”
