Family Owned
Our family’s passion for performance outdoor clothing and manufacturing dates back to the 1920’s and the creation of the Southern Hemisphere’s first down-filled sleeping bags.
New Zealand Made
Our clothing is 100% designed and made right here in New Zealand. We are committed to exceptional quality, supporting local jobs and upholding Aotearoa’s manufacturing expertise.
Sustainability
Making clothing that lasts reduces environmental impact. Repurposing offcuts minimises waste and our repair service maximises garment life. Learn more about our initiatives here.

It’s true that it’s hard to believe that something so small can make such a difference to one’s winter warmth…. But it does. ESS gets their descriptions right. Love these little things.. I have two to add colour to my winter wardrobe.
A happy customer ☺️
