For something he can wear all year round!
When it comes to gifts that are as practical as they are stylish, you can’t go wrong with a classic t-shirt. Our men’s merino t-shirts are more than just wardrobe basics - they’re a cut above the rest. Made from premium, lightweight merino wool, they’re perfect for layering in the cooler months or wearing solo on a warm New Zealand summer’s day.
Why are these t-shirts the perfect Christmas gift?
They combine timeless style with unbeatable comfort, offering breathability, odour resistance, and a soft feel that only natural merino can deliver. Whether he’s heading out for a day on the boat, tackling the trails, or just relaxing at home, these tees will keep him cool, comfortable, and looking sharp.
Available in versatile colours like black, navy, and pine, they’re a wardrobe staple every man will appreciate. Plus, they’re locally made right here in New Zealand, so you can give a gift that’s truly close to heart.

For those chilly nights and breezy days.
A high-quality jumper or jersey is the kind of gift he’ll wear on repeat. Whether he’s heading out for a casual coffee or exploring New Zealand’s great outdoors, a warm, well-fitted knit is a wardrobe essential. At The Wool Company, our range of men’s jumpers and jerseys combines classic style with the unbeatable warmth of merino and merino-possum blends.
Why is a jumper or jersey the perfect Christmas gift?
These aren’t just any sweaters - they’re designed with both comfort and durability in mind. Merino’s natural temperature-regulating properties ensure he’ll stay warm without overheating, while possum fibre adds a lightweight yet luxurious feel. And with timeless designs, they’ll never go out of style.
