MKM’s legacy as an iconic New Zealand outdoor clothing brand is simple: just good quality knitwear, designed and made in New Zealand, by New Zealanders. As original as it gets.
MKM’s are one of the most popular farm clothing brands in New Zealand, recognised for their high-quality knitwear. MKM use quality Merino wool and Possum fur, sourced and manufactured sustainably and ethically all within New Zealand. These are engineered with MKM’s 36.6° Unique Double Layer technology.
MKM’s unique double Possum and Merino wool layer system enables you to maintain your optimum body temperature at 36.6°C by trapping heat with the insulation layer of Possum fibre and repelling wind with the Merino layer. Products, such as their Tasman Quarter Zip Fleece, using the dual layer system are high performance, designed specifically to suit an active, outdoor lifestyle.
Possum fibre is unique in that it has a naturally hollow core that allows it to trap air and retain heat providing extraordinary insulation quality, approximately a 30% more warmth retaining ability than Merino wool alone. When combined with high crimp, fine Merino wool, Possum fibre produces ultra-lightweight garments that are luxuriously soft, extremely warm and resistant to piling. MKM Original sources all of their Merino and Possum fibre ethically and sustainably from New Zealand, which is spun together by Wool Yarns in Lower Hutt, NZ.
Did you know, Possum fibre will not freeze, even when exposed to periods of prolonged cold? This makes it the only fibre on the planet known to have the same characteristic is Polar Bear fur. It has approximately 30% more warmth retaining ability than Merino wool alone. MKM's clothing offers a unique blend of possum fur and high-quality merino wool creates a piling retardant fibre. Their Possum Merino Jumpers and Pullovers can be worn throughout the years and still look as new as the day it was purchased!
A practical shirt with good style. Looking forward to bigger sizes being back in stock
Warm, cosy and comfortable
I have this shirt as well as three others of different colours. Just love it and the colours are fabulous, can recommend. It looks so smart. I wore it at a grouse pointing test where my GSP was graded. Photo shows me wearing the shirt at the presentation!
Look great
Looks really smart
Great products from a fantastic company.
Never a issue if you need a different size.
Couldn't recommend high enough.
Excellent warm and comfortable also no odour these are one of the best socks available would recommend to anyone
I bought this for my husband's birthday recently. I live in possum & merino clothing as I am outside all day long. However...... the brand I usually buy is becoming incredibly expensive to source in the UK so I thought I'd try this brand out on my husband who isn't as fussy as me!
It arrived VERY quickly and although I was worried it would be too big, husband is happy with it. They do COME UP BIG!!! So if you like a tighter fitting garment def go down at least one size. It looks good, he is impressed at how warm it kept him whilst sitting on a tractor, yet didn't overheat in it when he came inside to sit by the log burner.
This is probably the most affordable Possum Merino you will find that you are also happy to wear to work. Only wish they did an XXS so I could have one too.
Bought from sugar loaf as a gift for a birthday. The item is great quality.
I would 100% purchase from sugar loaf again, and this is not only from their quality of clothing, but from their outstanding customer service.
I had a problem with my shipping (my fault due to autofill), and 10 minutes after sending my email, I had a response. This was not an automatic response, and had already resolved my query.
Would recommend to a friend!
11 out of 10! 🙌🏻
Great fleece , well priced
These are great shorts. The cotton is very hard wearing and the pockets are deep and strong.
Great pair of boots, true to size and delivered quickly with no fuss!
Would recommend the boots and the service!
a lot more comfortable than those cheap flexothane trousers, don’t get too hot underneath either and they are incredibly water resistant
Fully recommend this supplier
I love these shirts. I am a landscape gardener/carpenter and wear these everyday. I'm 6 foot, wide shoulders and fairly chunky! They fit great.

Good bib, but gusset zip with magnetic closure tends to let water in, just below the knee with heavy rain or working with wash down hose/pressure washer. Other than that all good.
