Farm Clothing Australia
People often associate Australia with mining, golden sand beaches, the Sydney Opera House, kangaroos, snakes, and poisonous spiders. But then there are the farmers who work tirelessly throughout the country, contributing massively to the economy. Estimates show over $70 billion of exports can be directly attributed to farming exports to overseas countries. It's a proven fact that when farmers and farming thrive, small regional centres in Australia thrive too.
So, when it comes to farm clothing in Australia, durability, comfort, and performance are essential to making sure the jobs you need to get done on the farm are achieved efficiently and without unnecessary discomfort.
At MKM Originals, we understand that farm work is hard and demanding. That’s why our farm clothing range is built for Australians working out on the farm day in and day out. From early mornings to late finishes, our workwear is designed to keep you warm, comfortable, and focused on the job at hand.
Our range of farm clothing includes high-quality farm jerseys, singlets, warm socks, and a wide selection of other accessories made to perform in real conditions. They are functional garments designed to handle cold winds, changing temperatures, and the physical demands of life on the land.
About MKM Originals
Established in 1884, MKM Originals has learned a thing or two about producing quality knitwear that lasts. With over a century of experience, we specialise in using natural fibres to create farm clothing that works with your body, not against it. Our deep understanding of fibre performance allows us to design garments that provide warmth without bulk, breathability without compromise, and durability you can trust season after season.
Manawatu Knitting Mills is proud to design and manufacture knitwear using locally sourced fibres, including Possum Merino, New Zealand wool, and our exclusive Eco Blend and Superfine 17-micron Merino. These fibres are carefully selected for their strength, softness, and thermal properties, making them ideal for farm workwear. Whether you’re layering up in winter or needing breathable comfort during cooler mornings, our materials are chosen to support life on the farm.
All MKM Originals farm clothing is designed and manufactured at our headquarters in the Manawatu region of New Zealand. Our head office, factory, distribution warehouse, and outlet store are all based on site, allowing us full control over quality at every stage. This hands-on approach ensures every garment meets the standards our customers expect and deserve.
While many manufacturers have moved offshore, MKM Originals has remained committed to being a New Zealand business in every sense. Our history is one of adaptation, innovation, and resilience, mirroring the journey of New Zealand itself. We continue to evolve with market demands while staying true to our values of local manufacturing, skilled craftsmanship, and reliable performance.
Our wool is sourced locally from farms across New Zealand, with careful supplier selection to ensure best practice in animal welfare and fibre processing. MKM partners with Woolyarns to spin our fibres into high-quality yarns using environmentally responsible methods that meet strict European Union REACH standards.
Each garment is manufactured at our Palmerston North knitting mill by a highly skilled team who take pride in their work. Every piece goes through a three-point quality check before entering the market. The result is farm clothing ready for Australian conditions, built to last, and made for people who demand the best. As original as it gets.
For Australian farmers looking for dependable farm clothing, MKM Originals offers a range that balances tradition with modern performance. Our garments are made to be worn, worked in, and trusted, not replaced every season. From cattle stations to cropping farms, sheds to paddocks, our workwear supports those who keep agriculture moving. When you choose MKM Originals, you’re choosing proven design, natural fibres, and a commitment to quality that has stood the test of time. This is farm clothing Australia can rely on, crafted with purpose, integrity, and pride. Built for long days, tough conditions, and real work, our clothing delivers warmth, comfort, and reliability wherever farming takes you, every single day, without compromise.
