Huffer

I used to really like Huffer, but I don’t think it’s as cool as it once was. The good thing about this label (and store) is that it is sweet designer clothing that is affordable and not at all pretentious; it actually is more laid back and accessible, which is what the label is going for. The clothes from here are of good quality and not too pricey. I also like the actual store. The layout is great, all the clothes look good and it’s easy to rummage through everything. It’s clean and organised too. I like the people who work here, I’ve never had anything but a friendly experience and they’re always greeting you with a big ‘hey’ when you walk through the front door, but they don’t get in your way and follow you around the store trying to sell you everything either, which is good because I hate that. They just leave you to it, until you need a hand.

Huffer the brand is about as cool as Kiwi brands get — always fashionable but without being too over-​the-​top trendy, always stylish without being too fancy to wear to the beach. They get the balance right.
This shop is one of the better ways to appreciate the brand in its entirety (arguably second to the website, but with a website you don’t get to see stuff in person). It’s a decently sized store and laid out well. I don’t often buy clothes new but on the odd occasion when I do I like coming to places like this that a: have quality, lasting clothes for reasonable prices, and b: make the shopping experience easy and stress-​free. This second one is not something I’d often say about a Newmarket store.
I’d agree with one of the other reviewers that this is maybe more of a guy’s store than a girl’s — not that they don’t have women’s clothes, they do, but I just feel like the brand’s style lends itself more to men’s fashion.

Huffer has really improved over the years. It’s not a super high end fashion brand, but it’s a New Zealand designed label that creates good streetwear staples, and really on trend pieces — think caps and beanies, good jackets, anoraks, overalls and easy dresses for girls, slim chinos and shirting for men, good printed tees and sweaters. I feel like it’s especially good for guys, in particular, those who aren’t so good at clothes shopping. The staff at Nuffield are great and friendly and honest — they’ll tell you if something looks terrible on you and likewise, they’ll tell you if something looks great.
They also stock some sunglasses and a few Nikes in store so it’s a bit of a one stop shop. The price points are very accessible.
The Nuffield Street store is in Newmarket so the parking isn’t so great, but if you park in the Nuffield Street carpark, you get a half hour free so if you’re just popping in, it’s a good option for your vehicle.
