In the vast and untamed wilderness of New Zealand, where roaring winds meet jagged peaks and glacial rain lashes down, Bushbuck was born. This isn’t just outdoor gear — it’s engineered armour for those who thrive where the wild bites back.
Built in the South, Tested in the Extreme
Bushbuck started with a simple idea: make performance clothing tough enough for the Southern Alps, Fiordland, and dense New Zealand bush. With roots in Christchurch and a team of designers and field testers who live the outdoor life, every jacket, pack and base layer is field-proven — not showroom-polished.
What sets Bushbuck apart is its commitment to innovation over trend. Their gear is tested in hunting huts, soaked in torrential mountain storms, and worn by real people who hike, hunt and work in the outdoors daily.
Engineering Meets Nature
From the legendary Kayahan waterproof jackets to the Hut Boots beloved by trampers and hunters alike, Bushbuck products merge military-grade function with ultralight design. They use advanced materials like HydroFoam and SeamLock technology, all geared towards staying dry, moving fast, and staying out longer.
Importantly, Bushbuck has a deep respect for the land. They're proud of their low-impact ethos, minimising waste and focusing on quality that lasts. You won’t see endless seasonal drops — just dependable kit that doesn’t quit.
A Kiwi Icon Goes Global
Though forged in Aotearoa’s harshest terrain, Bushbuck has quickly found fans abroad — especially in the UK countryside. With gear that feels made for fell walking, stalking, or working the land, their products offer a rare mix of hardiness, breathability, and intuitive design that appeals to the British rural spirit.
Why We Love Bushbuck at New Forest Clothing
It’s gear you can trust when things get serious. Whether you're stalking on a misty Scottish morning or setting up camp in Welsh hills, Bushbuck feels like kit made by people who’ve been there — and stayed out longer than most.
