Pure as bro. This is a play on the Kiwi saying “SWEET AS BRO” mixed with the NZ pure slogan. You can’t go far in NZ without hearing someone say “sweet as bro”, meaning anything from yes to fit for purpose. I drew the Kiwi using Koru. The colours are black, with white text and a black Kiwi forming the centre of the O. Thanks for looking at my New Zealand / Aotearoa designs.
