Saul is wearing a Large size (for looser fit) - Nathalie is wearing a Medium size (for Slim fit)

This slim fit organic cotton T is so comfortable Natalie (our model, and resident baker of cakes) immediately ordered two for herself and Saul (our model, and wheel-builder) didn't want to take it off. 

It is a 185 gsm in a very high quality knit, with all the details a premium t shirt should have: matching rib collar on a v neck, taped back neck and shoulder seams, bartacked overlocking on the sleeves and hem for durability.

• Natalie is the perfect Medium according to our fit chart, and a Medium is the size she is modelling. 
• Saul would generally be a Medium but he preferred the Large, which looks great and feels great too. 

Check out the fitting guide ..if you like a looser fit, just go up a size from what you normally wear.

* DUSTERS

* BUNDLES

NZO dusters will be packed using the Hydropol® patent, providing a sustainable solution to plastic end of life. 

The bag is super resistant, marine safe and biodegradable. Hydropol® is a clear and flexible food-grade plastic that dissolves completely in hot water. Once dissolved, Hydropol® biodegrades to a benign biomass, carbon dioxide and water, and can be safely flushed away with wastewater.  

We are proud to partner with Aquapak in providing a more sustainable outlook for the textile and e-commerce industries.

Original authentic design for trail fanatics

Nzo has been based in Rotorua, making things for mountain bikers, since 1998. Our big idea when we started was if we make stuff that we like, we were pretty sure some other people would like it too. 

21 years down the trail we still have that same idea, and we are still designing things in Rotorua that find a home with trail fanatics all over the world. Every Nzo product we sell is designed by us and tested individually by the people who own the company.   

 

We’ve had incredible experiences bike-packing in every kind of landscape. We have been mountain biking since the sport got started.

We love being outdoor and we love having the right gear. Our mission is to design timeless and functional gear. 

We take the lessons learned from decades of making stuff for mountain bikers and apply them to the perfect pair of pants for anybody heading outdoors. 

Gaz Sullivan (Founder) learned to ride a bicycle at age 5, and started racing bikes at 14. He represented his club, his region, and his country, before switching his attention to a career in graphic design. He got into mountain biking as soon as it was invented, and has been involved in the sport ever since.

Glen Anderson (Founder) used a bike for transport while she developed a career in the design and manufacturing of apparel.


When we started thinking about the right kit for mountain biking the sport had yet to define itself - there was literally

Risks & Challenges

We have been designing gears for mountain bikers, since 1998. With our team, we launched our line of durable outdoor wears in New Zealand, our hometown. Since then, we gain an extensive experience in manufacturing high-quality durable apparel as well as fulfilling lots of orders worldwide. 
We produced, modified, revised quite a few samples of the Duster pants until we feel like we have the best possible product we can offer. 
We have already queued our manufacturers and booked the fabric to ensure production as soon as we are funded. 
Our fulfilment platform is already operational and has been tested to ensure smooth and traceable delivery process. 
But sometimes things happen and as much as we are prepared, some issues are just unavoidable like fabric delays due to yarn being stuck in customs. 
We add time buffer for these events, but sometimes it's not enough. 
Be reassure that we are deeply committed to and excited about delivering, on time, a high-quality product that we know you'll enjoy for a long time to come.

Thank you for your support!
