Brendon worked really hard to get our kākahu vision to come alive, tēnei te mihi nui ki a ia! He was patient and helpful and the order was shipped quickly, and everything looks to be made to a high quality- we haven’t put them through their trials yet!

We ordered kākāhu through Kapahaka Makers and are absolutely delighted with the quality of the garments. The communication was seamless, and the team was incredibly helpful in ensuring that our design was a perfect fit for our kura. We will definitely be ordering from Kapahaka Makers again in the future and would highly recommend them to all kura looking for kapa haka kākāhu. Ngā mihi nunui to the team.
