As part of our inquiry into Kiwiana culture, we have been bringing objects from home to share.Last week Tessa brought her new gumboots to show! Tessa chose these gumboots because they are blue and have stars on them.
Gumboots are waterproof footwear that are perfectly suited to New Zealand weather and all sorts of activities; from farming to fishing and playing in the snow. Their versatility is why they are a staple for every Kiwi wardrobe!
Check out Fred Dagg's fantastic musical tribute to this iconic footwear here.
Thank you Tessa for sharing your Kiwiana with us!
