Kia ora and thank you for your continued support! Our Relaxed-fit Midnight Black Poraka Poutama have proved to be just as popular as our Poutama Shirt in Black. We can also see you’re loving the new Māwhero / Hot Pink colourway and we know you’ll enjoy wearing them through the cooler months of winter!!  Subscribe to our newsletter at the bottom of the page for advance notice of another new colourway and new samples we hope to introduce to you soon.

 

Nurture the seed & it will grow

Founded by sisters Claire Stirling-Hawkins and Rongopai Stirling-Maxwell on the verandah of their homestead in Raukokore, the Stirling Collective embodies a vision of an enduring legacy for their tamariki/mokopuna.

The Stirling Collective represents our commitment to creativity and growth within our whānau and as a proud Māori-owned enterprise, our mission is to empower our children and future generations with the skills to translate hopes, dreams, and aspirations into thriving businesses.
