"'New Zealand used to have shoe factories. They were all over the country, until they weren’t. Now, New Zealand-made shoes feels like a distant memory, like carless days, a top-bracket tax rate of 66% and The Video Dispatch. We went from having 95% of our footwear made locally in the late 1980s to only 5% by 2008. These days it’s certainly even less than that."

What are the best NZ made and owned alternatives to US brands?
I’m working on a series of poster/images for [email protected] - A comm for promoting NZ/Aus goods.
While I have a wide range of taste experiences with the Australian made side, I plan on making some for NZ brands as well. Can I please get some of your recommendations and suggestions. Thank you

The secret to finding good stitch markers, it turns out, is to bypass the retailers and seek out the people who make them.
I got these from Little Grey Hedgehog right here in NZ, and they're lovely to knit with.

What's the demarcation line between boots and shoes?
I've got a new pair of one or the other, anyway, made here in New Zealand by McKinlays (who reckon they're boots). Proper old-school footwear - made to last.
I discovered that if a style is listed as Made To Order, McKinlays will make them up in a non-standard colour at no extra charge (though they then won't be returnable).

Stack of raw material ready to go into the workshop. Easy to store and then cut to 1220-1230. Gauging from our supplier is real nice. Most are 40.1 +- 0.1mm
If we were to have 100% efficacy we'd have 1666 1.2m beams.
