In short: More Kiwi men are wearing engagement rings because the old one-sided convention no longer fits. Since same-sex marriage was legalised in NZ in 2013, both-partners-ringed has become common, and heterosexual couples have followed.

The two metals sit at opposite ends of the spectrum: titanium is light, modern and budget-friendly; platinum is dense, traditional and a serious investment. Both are legitimate choices, but they suit different hands, lifestyles…
Pinky rings have moved from niche accessory to a regular part of how Kiwi men dress, whether for work, weddings or weekends. The catch is that the little finger sits differently to the others — shorter, often with a more pronounced knuckle — so the sizing you use for a wedding band rarely transfers across….
Wooden rings have moved from niche curiosity to a mainstream choice for Kiwi men looking for something lighter, warmer and more personal than a metal band.
