Fred Dagg's iconic outfit is now on display in our national museum.
The famous hat, shearer's singlet, shorts and gumboots have gone on show at Te Papa today, where they will remain for the next three months.

The items, dating back to the early 1970's, were gifted to the museum by Fred Dagg's creator John Clarke in 2002.
Mr Clarke died in April this year, aged 68.
Curator Stephanie Gibson said when you see the items of clothing together you instantly recognise them as being Fred Dagg's.
She said it's a fitting tribute to a cultural icon.
