Huffer
Huffer is a New Zealand streetwear label founded in 1997 by snowboarder Steve Dunstan and designer Dan Buckley, built first for the local snowboard and skate scenes before broadening into everyday apparel. It trades on technical and puffer outerwear, heavyweight hoodies, sweats, tees and caps, with recurring Kiwiana graphics. The company runs its own stores across New Zealand and Australia plus wholesale and online, and has pushed into Asian markets. Buckley exited in 2011; Dunstan stepped back from day-to-day operations around 2023-24 and remains a minority shareholder alongside Kate Berry and Josh Prier.
