Duckewe is a small, independent brand born in Aotearoa New Zealand — blending streetwear, sustainability, skateboarding, and creative culture.

​

Since day one, we’ve only ever made plastic-free garments. Every tee and hoodie is 100% cotton, with many runs now GOTS-certified organic and produced in carbon-neutral, renewable-energy powered factories. Our skateboards are made from bamboo, not Canadian maple, and our packaging is recycled, recyclable, or compostable — every step taken with the planet in mind.

​

We're not just here to sell clothes. Over the past five years, we’ve poured our time, money, and energy into growing skateboarding in our community — helping raise over $100,000 worth of value through free-entry events, prizes, ramp builds, and sponsorships.

​

We've hosted art exhibitions, skate/music nights, and supported a range of causes close to our hearts — from donating annually to children’s charities, to sharing fundraising efforts for local services like the NZ Coastguard.

​

Duckewe’s designs feature work by local graffiti artists, tattooists, and street creatives — always in small runs, so no two seasons are the same. What began as a few cotton alternatives for runners has grown into a label rooted in the skate scene, built for people who care where and how things are made.

​

Our stockroom lives in the garage studio. It's full of musical instruments and there's a mini-ramp outside. We still ship every order by hand. We’re small — and we like it that way.

​

If you're into slow fashion, creative energy, and projects that give back, welcome to Duckewe.
