Mount Kiwi FAQ

Yes. 100% New Zealand owned and operated.

We’re based in the mighty Waikato region of New Zealand. We ship our products from our distribution warehouse here in the outskirts of Hamilton.

All of our NZ wool garments are made using a blend of traditional techniques and modern technology in the valleys of Mount Everest in Nepal. We believe in sustainable business practices —our team is paid a fair living wage, and we’ve been working with them for over fifteen years.

We’re a fully online store, with all purchases made via our website. Keen to say hi? Catch us at the largest agricultural event in the Southern Hemisphere — the annual National Agricultural Fieldays.

No problem! Simply fill in your details on the Returns form enclosed with your purchase and send both the form & your purchase back to us ensuring they are received by our warehouse no later than 30 days after them having been delivered to you. The cost of shipping item/s back to us is the responsibility of the customer (please note: we are a RURAL address). Once we've received your return, we’ll get your new size sent to you within 2-4 business days, free of charge (NZ). A store credit will be issued to international customers so they may purchase their preferred size.

If the item you want isn't available, we'll notify you by email and offer you either a store credit, or a refund.

Our jackets are made up of a 100% New Zealand wool outer layer with a fleece-lined inner. We’re all about maximum comfort and warmth on the inside and durability on the outside.

We use a blend of Romney and Perendale wool, sourced from the fertile plains of the South Island of New Zealand. All wool we source is100% New Zealandgrown.

To keep your Mount Kiwi garment in tip top shape, we recommend a gentle hand-wash. Haven’t got time? It’s perfectly fine to wash your items by machine but they MUST go on the ‘Delicate’, ‘Handwash’ or ‘Wool’ cycles using only cold water. Our garments like gentle, cold, and slow spin cycles. They’ll only shrink if they’re exposed to heat, so keep it away from the dryer and dry it on a flat surface in the shade.

Each of our wool jackets has a feather-soft fleece lined inner, meaning you won’t experience any itchiness on the skin. Our wool jackets are warm, snug, and free from irritation.
