We asked, listened, and collaborated directly with farmers in the making of this gear. We tested and re-tested in on-farm environments. We re-engineered what farming workwear can be with your needs front of mind. We brought our decades of experience creating world-class performance gear. Add to that a legacy of Kiwi innovation, a challenger spirit and a practical attitude that’s been part of Line 7 since we started back in 1963.

Every detail has been reviewed and refined – without overlooking the obvious. Breathable, flexible, functional and comfortable, while still being supremely durable and waterproof. Made to fit farmers of all shapes and sizes, with a dedicated range for women. Built to last, and last a bit longer still, with an included repair kit that means you can fix it up quickly yourself.

Now take it out there, try it on and put it to the test. Wear it out and wear it again. We’re pretty damn confident you won’t be disappointed.

This morning we acknowledged the coronation of His Majesty King Charles III with a small tree planting event at Ferndale Reserve in Waikanae.

Ten kahikatea were planted in His Majesty’s honour by Mayor Janet Holborow, Council kaumatua Te Rakauoteora Te Maipi and local tamariki as an acknowledgement of the King’s commitment to conservation and sustainability.

Kahikatea are a representation of mana – the mana of the King and the mana of Tāne Mahuta, god of forests. We also encourage people to plant a native tree in their backyard as a way to mark this special occasion.

His Majesty King Charles III’s coronation will be televised on TVNZ 1, Saturday 6 May from 10pm. To find out more, visit www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...
