Emirates Team New Zealand holds a special place in the hearts of Kiwi sports fans. The Auckland-based sailing team (representing the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron) became a household name following its consecutive wins in the America’s Cup in 1995 and 2000, under the leadership of Sir Peter Blake. Emirates Team New Zealand was the first team from a country outside the United States to bring home the America’s Cup. The team then went on to retake the cup in 2017.
As an island nation, sailing is a popular sport. Auckland – also known as the ‘city of sails’ – has more boats per capita than anywhere else in the world. Kiwi sailing teams have won more of the top international sailing trophies – and impressive feat given the country’s population of 4.3 million. Brand Protocole supplies a wide range of high-quality Emirates Team New Zealand supporter merchandise from glassware, pens and flags to cooler bags, caps and beanies.
