Female Founders Join Forces

Two female-founded businesses, Merry People and Karen Walker, have joined forces and collaborated for the second time. With winter approaching fast, the two labels have designed a limited edition and co-branded matching Tully boot and cropped rain jacket. 

This collaboration comes after the smash-hit success of their first collection. Both designers have a mutual love for timeless wardrobe staples and the unpredictable weather, creating pieces that are not only practical but also fashionable. The collection remains stylish in both rain and shine.

The collection has taken key elements from each brand's core values: Merry Peoples' exuberant and bold style and Karen Walker's passion for tailoring durable and functional pieces. The jacket and the boot share the same Ecru x Chestnut colour pallet and will only sell in a limited quantity.

"Teaming up with Karen Walker embodies what we're all about- crafting gear that supports life's adventures, big or small," commented Merry People founder and CEO, Dani Pearce. "They're the go-to pieces for go-getters who tackle the day confidently and effortlessly."

The Tully boot is a signature silhouette for Merry People and has a classic 90s urban design. Re-designed in a new colourway, the boot is 100 percent waterproof, 100 percent vegan and has a flexible neoprene lining. The boot also has arch support and has a large unisex size range from 30 to 42. 

The rain jacket is a versatile and timeless piece essential for New Zealand's ever-changing climate. It is waterproof with a 3,000-millimeter rain rating, has two front pockets and a hood, and is marked with the signature runaway girl patch. It has snap button closures, ideal for quickly taking it off and on, and perfect for ever-changing weather habits. 

The collaboration embraces their mutual love for timeless wardrobe staples and the unpredictable weather that unites them, as well as celebrating the power of both female founders' joining forces.
