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.

Would you like to live by Te Rapa Racecourse?

The Team Reporter from Hamilton Press

Homes could be appearing on a piece of racecourse land if Waikato Racing Club gets its way.

The proposal is for up to 20 dwellings, some of which would overlook the racecourse and its grounds.

Hearings on the club's application are due mid-year. What do you think of the idea?

Do you think it's getting harder to buy a farm?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A piece of land of his own. That’s the dream for young King Country farmer Rameka Edwards.

As simple as it sounds, the barriers are formidable, with land expensive and sheep and beef lacking the traditional share milking pathway of dairying.
