BACK DESIGN OVERVIEW
With what is happening throughout Aotearoa currently in 2024 and comments from our current government I decided to work hard to bring you a strong FLAG!  The flag now known as the flag of the United Tribes of New Zealand (Māori: Te Whakaputanga o te rangatiratanga o Niu Tirene) or Te Kara (Māori for 'the colours') is a flag originally designed by Henry Williams to represent the New Zealand Church Missionary Society.   Te whakaputanga flag - declaration flag has black. United tribes flag has white.  This flag was made on the Tory during its voyage from England to New Zealand in 1839 and raised at Petone on 30 September. The Tory carried New Zealand Company agents who intended to buy land from Māori. William Wakefield, the principal agent, referred to the flag as the 'colours of New Zealand' and the Tory gave it a twenty-one gun salute. It is possibly one of several used by the Company.

FLAG DESIGN
The flag's design I have used was based on a flag adopted by a group of Māori chiefs at Waitangi in 1834 when New Zealand was an independent territory. The flag came to be known as the flag of the United Tribes of New Zealand, a term derived from an 1835 declaration of the country's independence by a group of northern chiefs.

OCCASION:  Our t-shirt for women is great for daily, work and casual.  Furthermore, our t-shirt by NGÂ HAU E WHÂ is easily matched with a skirt for a sophisticated style and jeans, tops and boots for a formal style.
