Men clothing store in Wellington

“Best store in Wellington! Great timeless styles with an edge! Love it.”

“Great customer service from Mr Manager at the Wellington store. He was great & made us feel valued. Talked about WOW & how busy they have been over this time & was thankful for our custom. Thank you”

“Best service in town. The team there never lets me down. Best Barkers in the country.”

“Brilliant place where you know you will be looked after and get amazing service. Have brought my husband a few shirts here over the years and really amazing quality and the tailoring service is wonderful. We went in again this week with just a few hours to sort out an outfit for a funeral before flying to the uk. The team were kind and did everything they could to find something appropriate and did on the spot tailoring. He has ended up with something that he feels comfortable in and will give him years and years of use. Thank you!”

“For the last couple of years when I have been visiting the area I have been buying shirts and accessories from Holy Smoke. They are one of those hidden gems that you wish you had known about sooner, and you tell everyone about. For such a small store it has an amazing range of styles and sizes. The closest store I can compare it to in NZ is Eurostyle in Newmarket, Auckland which is one of the best men's stores in NZ. Holy Smoke however does larger sizes too, so not only does it have a ton of XXL shirts but quite a few XXL sizes too. And to top it off the service is excellent to. I cannot recommend this store enough to people. Seriously, take the time and drive here. You will be amazed.”

“Lynda and Tessa were so helpful and lovely today with helping me and my mum shop for a few special pieces. We had such a great time shopping in store and are thrilled with what we got! Thanks again.”

“Came into Max and had the best shopping experience with the help of Katie, she was so helpful finding lots of new outfits for me, with items I could mix and match with each other. Katie knew what would look good on me and I left feeling so confident with my new clothes.”

“Lauren the Manager is exceptional in her service...I am also in retail so know the key points to look for with customer service. The store is always clean & staff being friendly, professional every time I shop there. Good old fashion service is always the key to customers returning plus love the stock you have :)”

“Lovely service from a woman here last week. I had been wandering around town visiting shoe shops without a single shop assistant talking to me. I went into Atticus thinking it would be out of my price range but the shoes I liked were on sale and the shop assistant was really attentive helping me find the right size. Really happy with both the shoes I purchased and the shopping experience.”

“I probably last visited the store months ago. But when I walked into that store, the male staff rememberd me. The amazing thing is he even remembers what I got from the shop. It's very rare you find store like this in NZ anymore. It felt like I'm a very valued customer. The boots I got for my partner is fantastic too.”

“Wonderful, great service from a walk in for our Son’s upcoming formal, they took their time to talk through the different options and styles to suit our Son, would recommend to anyone”

“Excellent Barkers Studio store Easy to walk past and look through windows and large signs for sale items Outstanding service and staff are super nice They can sort out any alterations you might need and the tailor they use is nearby on Dixon St”

“Was in the Nelson store last week great service so many choices a big thank you to Jeffery so good at his job and even the things I had delivered came beautifully packaged and presented top marks”

“My fiancé and I went to the Queensgate branch to start looking for his wedding suit. We were served by Daisy who gave us the best customer service I have ever received. She got in items that were almost gone for us, went above and beyond, and was just an all round amazing person. I just wanted to say a big thank you to her!”

“Outstanding quality, two years after buying a waxed cotton hooded jacket”

“Pearl was absolutely wonderful, funny, super knowledgeable, and has great vibes! After initially choosing an eyebrow and septum piercing, they suggested I switch the septum for a navel piercing as my anatomy wasn't suited for a septum. The process was smooth and painless (as painless as a light stabbing can be) and well worth it!!”

“Love this place, bought an amazing Lego hat, my friend bought a leather jacket and we enjoyed the company of the two kind workers when we were in there, Isaiah and Shay. Would 100% visit again and recommend to anyone looking for quality thrift clothes near the CBD.”

“Very friendly staff! Went out of their way to provide excellent service! Received a warm and friendly welcome from the two lovely ladies there (unlike other stores that I went to where the staff did not bother to say hi at all). Will def come back again! Thank you!”

“Great friendly and helpful staff that will go out of their way to help you .”

“The team here at Lifestyle Sports have always looked after us well. They are super helpful, understanding and patient. Many times I have spent a while looking around and the staff are all willing to help find the right item. Totally recommend Lifestyle Sports, great range of footwear, clothing and supporters gear!”

““I had three suits tailored here and the quality was outstanding. The work is very professional and precise, and I’m very happy with the results. Special thanks to Sophia for her excellent service and attention to detail — she made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommended!””

“Received brilliant service by Jamie today, he went above and beyond to help sort shorts for our son. Will most definitely be back. Cheers Sandra”

“Got a shirt here a few weeks ago. Affordable price and good quality, cheaper than regular Barkers. Would definitely recommend going outlet!”

“Absolutely fantastic service! Been down to buy some tools about 4 times in recent weeks and have been impressed every time. One of the guys even held the door for me while I was carrying a heavy vice. Doesn't sound like a big ask but customer service like that is almost unheard of now. High impressed, Keep it up team!”

“A little treasure in Petone. I love the new layout, it much easy to shop. And the new manager she is so lovely and kind”

“I visited the Kathmandu Lyall Bay and was served by Elly who provided exceptional customer service. She listened to my many queries and was patient, expressing her knowledge and expertise about different options and a range of products. A few days later I was greeted by Ollie who expressed himself on an exceptional level, providing brilliant ideas and showing depth above his years. Both of these individuals went above and beyond and I feel their attitude and genuineness as young promising human beings should be noted for further development of an example of exemplary service. It was a breath of fresh air and in turn, I purchased exactly what I was looking for. It wasn't for either of them, I would likely have not purchased anything at all. A+”

“Great staff, great service. Love the shoes I bought here.”

“My Partner Paul and I went into Queensgate lower Hutt 8/3 looking to purchase the Suit package we were served by a lovely girl who was in training, most helpful and friendly. Paul was very happy with purchase well done team.”

“I don’t typically enjoy stepping foot inside a Hallensteins store as I find it is often filed with grubby teen lads, and I often don’t find clothing I would like to wear. However, I was more than impressed by the Lambton quay hallensteins. Particular note must be made of the lighting quality in the changing rooms. Doubled my shop time by simply staring at myself in the mirror. Copped 2 very nice t-shirts as well for a handy 2 for $50 deal! TLDR: worth going just to admire yourself in the changing rooms mirrors”

“My heartfelt recommendation for Vance Vivian at Wellington and to express my profound gratitude for the exceptional service provided during my recent visit. As an international visitor in urgent need of a business suit for a high-profile television interview in the USA, I was fortunate enough to discover [Shop Name], where I received not just a suit but a bespoke tailoring experience. Upon arrival, I was greeted with the utmost professionalism and attentiveness that one could hope for. The owner, Hamish, deserves a special commendation. His expertise in style and fit was evident from the moment we began. He took the time to understand my needs, offered insightful advice, and showcased a discerning eye for detail that is all too rare in today’s fast-paced fashion world. The guidance I received was not only about the aesthetics but also about the message and confidence a well-crafted suit can convey on such occasions.”
