A strategy for the future

At Kaiwaka, sustainability isn’t a feature, it’s our foundation. Since 1975, we’ve stood by the belief that doing right by the land and the people who work it means making gear that lasts. We reject throwaway culture, offering free repairs, designing for durability, and embracing circularity to reduce waste.

Our commitment extends from the paddock to the planet. With ethical practices across our supply chain, support for rural communities, and responsible innovation that ensures we’re not just outfitting the next generation, we’re protecting their future too.

30 years extending the life

We’ve been repairing Kaiwaka gear for over 30 years, not because it’s easy, but because it’s right. Every repair extends the life of a garment made to outlast, keeping it out in the field and out of landfill. It’s part of our commitment to craftsmanship, circularity, and standing by the people who rely on us. If it’s worn, we restore it. If it’s torn, we fix it. Because real sustainability means backing what we make and who we make it for.

Technology Meets Sustainable Design

We’re committed to making the highest-quality, durable gear that protects both our customers and the environment. Every Kaiwaka garment is designed to perform under pressure and made to outlast. We follow environmental standards across our materials and processes, ensuring they meet international regulations without compromising performance. Because true durability means looking after the land, as well as the people working it.
