Customer reviews
"Living Simply is simply my favorite shop in Auckland! It is our family's "go-to" for anything to do with the outdoors. They stock high quality gear at reasonable prices and the staff are informed and helpful. They don't try and sell things I don't need and they don't encourage me to cut corners when I do need something. I have never been disappointed by my experience of shopping there. I can highly recommend Living Simply for packs, waterproofs, sleeping bags, torches, warm gear, boots and general tramping/camping as well as more specialized mountain gear. This is a family business at its best!" Crispin, May 2019 (Google)

"Living Simply has very helpful, friendly and well-versed employees. Their range of brands, gear and products are numerous- this store packs nearly anything you'd need for tramping. The store layout is intuitive and customer-friendly, and their prices are brilliant for a small, family-owned business. I'd definitely recommend coming here!" Abbey, May 2019 (Google)

"Great service. The dude was extremely clued up and made my boot buying experience a pleasure. $20 cheaper than down the road too. A year down the line these boots have walked a long way and are still every bit as comfortable as the day I got them!" Andrew, October 2018 (Google)

"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 (Google)

"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 excellent value, service and product advice then this is the outdoor store to support. The team here really know what they are talking about and clearly value their customers!" Nicola, 2015 (Google)

"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)
