Super King Duvet Inners NZ

A super king duvet inner from Kiwi Wool measures 265 x 210 cm and is made in our Auckland factory from New Zealand alpaca or New Zealand wool. Pick your warmth below, from a light 200 GSM alpaca inner for summer to a 500 GSM wool inner for the coldest nights of the year.

Every super king inner here is filled and quilted by us, cased in a 100% cotton, down-proof cover certified to OEKO-TEX Standard 100, and covered by our 3-year warranty. Prices and stock shown below are live.

How to choose a super king duvet inner

Start with the season you sleep worst in, then pick the fill. Alpaca is the lighter choice and wool is the heavier, cocooning choice. Our temperature guide puts winter at 400 to 500 GSM for alpaca and 450 to 600 GSM for wool, with 200 GSM alpaca for summer. The duvet GSM guide explains what the numbers mean.

Super king or king: which size do you need?

A New Zealand super king mattress is about 183 x 203 cm. Our super king inner is 265 cm wide, which leaves roughly 41 cm hanging over each side. A king inner is 240 cm wide, so on the same mattress you get about 28 cm each side. That difference is what stops a cold gap opening when one of you rolls over.

If your bed is a king (167 x 203 cm), the king duvet inner is the right fit, although some people choose a super king for a deeper drape. Both sizes are 210 cm long. Our NZ duvet size guide has every size in one chart.

Why weight matters more at this size

A super king holds more fill than any other size, so GSM adds up quickly. Our 500 GSM wool super king weighs about 4.2 kg and the 350 GSM alpaca about 3.2 kg. Some sleepers love the anchored feel of a heavy wool inner. Others find it hard to turn under.

Alpaca fibre is semi-hollow, so it traps warm air while staying light. Our rule of thumb is that alpaca is around 25% warmer and lighter than sheep’s wool, which is why the 450 GSM alpaca is our usual recommendation for a super king that needs to be warm but not heavy.

Sharing a super king

Most super kings are shared, and two people rarely run at the same temperature. The alpaca duvet combo lets you use the 200 GSM inner in summer, the 350 in the shoulder seasons and both buttoned together in winter. If one of you always runs hot, our post on thermoregulating duvets for couples works through the options.

Tip. Measure your mattress width and add at least 60 cm for overhang. If the total is more than 240 cm, buy a super king inner.

Kiwi Wool super king inners are 265 x 210 cm. They suit a standard NZ super king mattress of about 183 x 203 cm, with roughly 41 cm of overhang on each side and a little extra length at the foot.

Can I use a super king duvet inner on a king bed?

Yes. On a 167 cm wide king mattress a super king inner hangs about 49 cm over each side. Many people like the deeper drape, but on a low bed the edges can reach the floor. A king inner at 240 cm wide is the standard fit.
