Possum Fur Fashion

A prolific breeder, the Brushtail Possum has become the greatest threat to New Zealand's native flora. Numbers are estimated at 70 million, and they devour 8 million tonnes of vegetation annually. That equates to 20,000 tonnes (or 4000 truckloads) every night! In addition to competing for food, Brushtail Possum's also eat or destroy the eggs and chicks of endangered native birds.

Possum New Zealand believes that a commercially driven approach is an effective way of containing this problem. We have developed an innovative Possum fur range of funky, colourful garments, hats, scarves, bags and accessories, in a myriad of finishes and hues.

All Possum fur products are available in 19 different natural and dyed colours. From the favourite natural brown to our funky 'hot pink' there is something for everyone in the Collection.
The collars and scarves are our best sellers and are so versatile - wear them over your evening dress or to the supermarket!

The 60/40 blend of Possum fur and Merino wool creates the warmest and most durable knitwear. Our Possum Merino Knitwear range is unlike anything else on the market. You're sure to stand out from the crowd this winter!

Whether you're looking for a classic fur vest or a versatile fully reversible jacket, there is something in the Possum New Zealand Garment range. A fusion of high fashion and traditional craftsmanship, all garments are manufactured to the highest professional standards in New Zealand.

Available in 19 different colours, the New Zealand Hat range is varied. From classic pillboxes to the funky KGB, our hats will delight. Whether for apres-ski or to ward off winter chills - we have a hat for you!

Create drama and excitement in your bedroom with these luxurious Possum fur bed throws.
Magnificent in size with maximum impact, these throws spill over the sides of your bed, or can be nonchalantly draped over the sofa or floor to provide a visual and tactile experience.
Constructed from the biggest, fluffiest hides, each throw is carefully matched for colour and texture. They then undergo a labour intensive manufacturing process to ensure all major imperfections are taken out of the pelts, and that the final product lies uniformly and squarely.

New Zealand Babylamb is commonly known as slink. After processing the hides create gorgeous, lightweight garments that are incredibly warm. They are available in a variety of textures and funky dyes that will delight.

Most garments are available trimmed with warm and luxurious Possum fur.

All our New Zealand Cowskin (or calfskin) products are made from the best quality Friesian hides. Every product is totally unique in texture and shape - and most importantly spottiness!
Always available in the classic Brown/White and Black/White, many of our products are now being specially dyed: Hot Pink and Lime Green!
Sourced in New Zealand and manufactured by Possum New Zealand, our cowskin/calfskin products are made from the biggest and best 'bobby calves' produced as a by-product of the Dairy Industry.
