Size & Dimensions

Our contemporary kākahu are available in a range of sizes and lengths to suit both adults and tamariki.

Sizing

Our sizes are determined by the length of the tāniko band, measured from one end to the other. This represents the width of the kākahu when laid flat.

How We Measure

The finished length is measured from the top of the tāniko band to the bottom of the fabric lining. Please note that the feathers naturally extend approximately 5–10 cm beyond the lining, adding to the overall length of the kākahu.

How each length falls will vary depending on the wearer's height.

As every piece is individually handcrafted, slight variations in finished measurements may occur.
