Due to popular demand – and no doubt from my incessant postings on social media of my shopping trips – I’ve put together a guide to some of the many fashion outlet stores in Auckland.
Outlet stores – often called factory shops, or sales and seconds stores – were traditionally run from the manufacturer’s head office, much in the vein of the ‘cellar door’ at a vineyard. Now of course with most clothing produced in Asia, seconds and sale shops are often at the warehouse/head office, or, more likely, in the massive malls.
The main malls we have in Auckland are Dress Mart (at 151 Arthur Street in Onehunga with over 100 brands including Converse, Levis, Puma, Max, Glassons, Walker & Hall, and more) and also in Te Rapa Hamilton.
Another outlet mall is Westgate Outlet Centre located alongside Westgate Shopping Centre (where you will also find Ziera / Kumfs shoes, Esprit and Pumpkin Patch Outlets) in Westgate Drive in Massey, West Auckland. Brands include Identity, Barkers, Bendon, Jet, North Beach, USA Direct, Nike amongst others and it is open seven days from 10am-5pm.
But what about beyond the outlet malls? Here are some you can check out around town…
