Introducing the Kiwi Socks Supporting Kiwi Conservation

Meet the Newest Member of the Sock Flock!

Conservation Socks has partnered with Save the Kiwi to create a New Zealand-made kiwi sock, with $10 from every pair sold through our website donated to Save the Kiwi to support kiwi conservation across Aotearoa.

And, as a Conservation Socks first, the kiwi socks are available in both adult and kids’ sizes!

Kiwi are deeply tied to New Zealand's national identity, yet most of us have never had the privilege of seeing one in the wild.

These extraordinary nocturnal birds are unlike almost anything else in the world. They are flightless, have nostrils near the tips of their long beaks, and possess remarkably powerful legs. Once numbering in their millions, kiwi populations have declined dramatically due to habitat loss and introduced predators.

Today, Save the Kiwi works alongside iwi, conservation groups, communities, organisations and the Department of Conservation to reverse this decline. Their mahi includes supporting predator control, creating kiwi-safe habitats, raising awareness, and helping young kiwi grow through dedicated breeding and repopulation programmes.

It is important work, and a reminder that meaningful conservation outcomes are achieved through years of collaboration and dedication.

Our partnership with Save the Kiwi is built around a year-round commitment to supporting this mahi, helping create a future where kiwi are not just a national symbol, but a bird that future generations have the opportunity to see thriving in the wild.

The kiwi socks are designed, manufactured and packaged in New Zealand. Whether you are looking for a thoughtful gift, a conversation starter, or simply a comfortable pair of socks featuring one of Aotearoa's most extraordinary manu, these little kiwi have you covered.

Pre-orders are now open, with shipping anticipated for the first week of November 2026.

A huge thank you to the team at Save the Kiwi and The NZ Sock Company for helping bring this project to life.

Here's to bringing kiwi from endangered to everywhere, one pair of socks at a time!
