"Awesome chill staff - love a store where I can have a browse without getting sucked into a long sales pitch, yet always on hand with heaps of knowledge if you ask. Never change guys!" Rusty, April 2018 (Facebook)
"Simply the very best shop to get any outdoor gear! All personnel is experienced and helpful, and they go above and beyond to assist with any purchase." Siiri, December 2017 (Google)
"I can't recommend the team here enough. These guys are legends. They give great advice, really know what they are talking about and aren't pushy or trying to make a sale. Great to see a locally owned business run by guys who love the outdoors as an alternative to the big chains with staff who don't have a connection to what they are selling. Better prices too and greater variety of products." Steve, July 2017 (Google)
"Love these guys so helpful, you
don't get this kind of help or attention from the big chains. Not to mention
the brands they stock are top notch quality. Purchased an Aarn pack today and
the sales assistance took so much time with me fitting it correctly and showing
me its features. Can't wait to try it out. Highly recommend." Lana, October 2016 (Facebook)
"The best outdoor shop in
Auckland. I got my Aarn pack fitted here and the best fitting pair of boots
that I've had. The knowledgeable staff take the time to make sure you have the
gear that's right for you." Karen, September 2016

"Didn't know about this store
until today when they went above and beyond to help me out with a Marmot
product that I desperately needed, top staff, awesome store, I'll definitely be
shopping here from now on. Highly recommend!" Jade, October 2015 (Facebook)
"I am compelled to write a note
to say what superb service the team at Living Simply provide. If you want

support. The team here really know what they are talking about and clearly
value their customers!" Nicola, 2015

"I always do my research before
buying a new piece of gear. But time and time again when I walk in to the shop
I recognise the faces and get the best advice and service. Stoked to have
you guys still around this long! Its a true testament to a great shop. I sound
like a broken record but bought my first pair of tramping boots in here years
and years ago. And the same guy sold me my last pair! With all the competition
around its easy for me to walk past them and go up the stairs to buy my next piece
of quality kit from people I know and trust. Cheers guys". Gus, July 2014 (Facebook)
"Superb outdoor equipment store –
so good it's not worth bothering going elsewhere. Great range, quality
products, fair prices, and excellent customer service from staff that are not
only friendly, but genuinely knowledgeable, too." David, June 2014 (Facebook)
