I’ve bought a bunch of stuff from Cactus Outdoors over the years, but I’m finding that their cuts don’t really fit me very well and are also a bit on the higher end price-wise. Love their bags though. Do you have any NZ-made brands that you can recommend?

Love Earth Sea Sky. Best raincoats on the planet. rest of the range is pretty nice too
Try this Brave Search Goggle I made, which searches a bunch of NZ companies and retailers (not all of it is NZ gear, and some of it is made by an NZ company overseas, like Macpac, Kathmandu ect).
Some of the companies I came across when putting it together:
- southernlitepacks.co.nz (backpacks)
- https://twinneedle.co.nz/ (hunting focused, but they repair clothing & packs too)
- glowingsky.co.nz (southland based merino stuff - I got some socks from them which are great)
- earthseasky.co.nz is great
- https://www.kaiwakaclothing.co.nz/
- swazi.co.nz (not 100% sure its made in NZ)
- cactusoutdoor.co.nz (I don’t think their clothing is made in NZ anymore, sadly)
- https://norsewear.co.nz/ (socks, gloves, beanies)
- https://fiordlandpacks.com/ (ultralight packs)
(the full list of NZ sites in the goggle is here)
Sorry, most of it is more outdoor focused than everyday
