With the winter chill well and truly settling in our NZM crew is sharing some of their wool essentials to keep cosy and functional this winter. Our crew are all about conscious consumption, buying certified, ethical, sustainable wool products supporting our ZQ brand partners. Creating a better, kinder, more positive future for the planet.
Alice Norton, Marketing Executive: Smartwool Beanie
“A must pack on every trip away, whether it’s a rainy road trip or a week in the hills, my Smartwool Beanie is always in my bag. Keeps the head warm in NZ winter, and also gets points for style, too. I like the colour of mine, it’s super versatile and will look great up the ski field too. Everyone needs a good winter beanie, and this ones my pick for this season and beyond. The feel is so nice with the Merino wool blend, and the fit is super nice for me.”
Emma Subtil, ZQRX Project Coordinator: Honest Wolf Tote
“I bought my Honest Wolf tote because I wanted to support a farming family that I thought were doing something exciting and innovative in the strong wool space. I love my Honest Wolf tote because it is perfect for my overnight trips visiting growers around the country – the detail with the laptop sleeve, key hook and drink bottle holder are great and it’s the perfect size for my change of clothes, sponge bag and sports gear.”
Thomas Nye, Sales & Marketing Coordinator: Smartwool PHD Pro Run Light Elite Socks
“When it comes to winter running, I wouldn’t dream of hitting the trails without these. These breathable, lightweight, cushioned beauties are unbeatable, and go the distance time after time. Wouldn’t buy another pair f running socks.”
Monica Schwass, Future Farming: Icebreaker Pants
“I live in my Icebreaker trackpants in winter, they’re so comfy and warm."
Nathan Sheppard, Business Development Manager: Glerups Boots
“Doesn't matter if I am at work or at home you can guarantee I have my Glerups on. Addiction has occurred”
