Shoe store in New Zealand

“Super stoked with my purchase from Painted Bird! Steph was awesome — went out of her way to make sure it would fit and went above and beyond to make sure it was delivered to me. You don’t get service like that often these days. The piece I ordered was in perfect condition and exactly what I was after.”

“Great range of quality clothing and especially t-shirts! Staff are very friendly and helpful. I will be back for sure.”

“An absolutely amazing store to do business with. There products are high quality at awesome prices. I brought 2 pairs of DVS shoes, they didnt fit my big goofy feet, the Bro Olly at Empire Skate was the most kind and helpful person at talking me through a super easy exchange process so i could return the shoes in exchange for a larger size. Amazing communication thankyou Olly and such a pleasure to deal with. Empire Skate most definitely has me as a satisfied and happy customer for life, i will be making many more purchases from your store. Appreciate you all. A huge big shoot out to the bro Olly, i can not thankyou you enough. Many thanks, Josh”

“Absolutely incredible, so kind and compassionate. My daughter had her ears pierced here and they were soooo lovely, no issues, no infections, a simple saline solution for at home with great home care instructions. After her first change of earrings she couldn't get a new pair in, rang the store, they told us to come on in and their incredible staff member managed no issues. Huge relief for my daughter and I. Would recommend this place to everyone.”

“Fantastic service! My husband and I came to Dunedin slightly under prepared and first tried Kathmandu (a disaster) but then luckily happened upon the amazing team at Bivouac Dunedin. Shopping for outdoor gear is pretty overwhelming for us, so we were very grateful. We both bought jackets and walking boots, and we've worn these every day since. Thank you, team!”

“Wonderful staff, stunning suits and family friendly. Highly recommend Thomson's Suits for all your tailored needs.”

“Excellent personal service with a great range of quality products at a good price”

“Nigel was fantastic from the moment we walked in, he greeted us as we entered and introduced himself. Very knowledgeable and took his time to give us the best service possible, really went the extra mile. Walked away with exactly what we were after. 10/10 will shop here again”

“Caddell went above and beyond today. Courteous, friendly and was quick to find alternative sizes. Cheers my bro!”

“Super cute place with nice vintage clothing and local accessories and other products. They have a cute variety of mugs, books and jewelry.”

“Popped in here a few times trying on sneakers and Birkenstocks. Seriously great staff - everyone is super friendly and they offer you water (!!!) what a treat! I had the absolute best time with Sammy, she has great chat and also really attentive to my needs when I was looking for specific shoes (I’m picky). I wouldn’t come to Commercial Bay very often but this store is definitely one of the highlights there. Go there for the best shoes retail experience.”

“Very helpful gentleman and a talented shoe repairer at reasonable cost. So glad he was recommended to me.”

“Impeccable service and price! The engraving is top notch and so quick! Highly recommend”

“I cannot find the words enough to express how happy I am with the service mister minit in Westfield Albany gave me. I was wearing a very sentimental watch that had broke. I did not want to be without it for a minute. The gentleman at the stand totally understood my emotional status and managed to fix it there and then. To make this scenario even more fantastic, not only did I not have to go without this precious watch for a second, he could see I was emotional and did not charge me. I truly cannot thank you enough. This kind of wonderful customer service is very rare these days. Thank you again.”

“It's a fantastic shop. The staff are very helpful and respectful as a bigger person clothes shopping can be unsettling. They made me feel welcome, and the selection is amazing with a large variety of style options. Quality is extremely high, and prices are very reasonable. I will definitely be going back. Ps location and parking are epic, too.”

“Great customer service at Airport Taking Shape store every time we visit. On Sunday 03 August, we were welcomed with warmth and kindness. Shopping was a lovely experience and the great recommendations assisted with our happy purchases. We would like to thank Sam for her great assistance and attention to detail, Kath for her awesome friendly connection with us. Aaliyah for her friendly smile and making herself available to assist where it was required. Puti for remembering us and happy to show us in the different areas of the store. We absolutely love shopping on the weekends because the crew in store are the best. Thank you for always being so great to us and all the customers in store, best Taking Shape store in Auckland.”

“This café is near my workplace, and I often stop by. It gets quite busy in the mornings. I tried an Aerocano here for the first time, and the fine foam on top was delicious. Especially when the boss makes it, the foam is beautifully crafted. (For Japanese coffee lovers who prefer black coffee, I highly recommend trying it, though it’s not listed on the electronic order menu.) Aside from coffee, I also enjoy the feijoa smoothie. I only discovered feijoa after coming to New Zealand, and it’s such a delicious fruit. The staff has changed a bit over time, but they always greet me with a smile. Thank you so much, as always!”

“Love Bambini. I discovered it during Covid lockdown and I have ordered a few times online and never been disappointed. Ordered a couple of items yesterday from Auckland and they arrived today! Great service and product lines. Thank you :)”

“Sofiya is a huge asset to this store. She spent at least an hour bringing us clothes for my son to try. Nothing was too much trouble. We really appreciated her help. She has a good eye and was extremely honest with her opinions and advise. Thank you See you next time we are down.”

“I have brought alot of things from this company for work and personal I absolutely love the staff Nigel and Stacy are fantastic to deal with and I am wearing the caterpillar pants for women love them and also brought a salty crew hat for summer weather. Thanks guys new place looks a treat.”
