What to know about Thing Thing

Bags brought people in

Thing Thing is best known for its bags, but the range extends across jackets, trousers, knitwear, tops and dresses for men and women.

Fabrics are made, not bought

Collections are built around custom and bespoke fabrics, often in bold prints, and released in limited-edition runs rather than repeating seasonal staples.

New Zealand independent, not global chain

Running since 2012, it sells through its own webstore plus independent NZ boutiques and surf and lifestyle shops like The Urban Studio and Mount Surf Shop.
