About Us

Find shoes for the entire family in a single store.

No more traipsing around malls for hours in search of the right style only to find stores that don’t have the right size or vice versa. No more driving around town, stopping at countless shoe shops trying to find comfortable footwear for school, work, or the gym. No more soulless chain stores with shoes that don’t even fit properly or fall apart within a year…

Gr8 Gear is the shoe store with more you’ve been looking for...

Gr8 Gear - the Best Shoe Shop in the West

Our friendly store in New Lynn, West Auckland, takes
the stress out of shoe shopping for the entire family.

We stock the best brand range in Auckland, with a wide array of quality footwear from well-known brands in the latest styles - including Converse, Vans and Dr Martens.

But as much as we love shoes, it’s not just about the fancy footwear. For us, it’s about providing exceptional service and personal attention to every person who walks through our door.

We take the time to get to know you, help you figure
out the perfect shoe and the ideal fit, with plenty of size options (including half-sizes) to ensure we get it just right.

A Story of Gr8ness

My name is Annabel, and I’m the owner of Gr8 Gear. But just like you, I started out as a customer!

In 2019, I walked in to buy a pair of shoes and saw the store was planning to close down. I couldn’t let that happen!

With plenty of experience in what it takes to run a
business (and a good head for numbers), I saw the potential in this local business and jumped all in, quitting my job and becoming the proud owner of the
best shoe shop in the west!

My favourite part of running Gr8 Gear (besides the
awesome products we stock) is meeting and assisting you. When I can help someone walk out of the shop with a smile, my day is made.

What do we sell?

Shoes, shoes & more shoes!

An enormous, ever-changing range of quality shoes at the lowest prices we can deliver for the entire family. We stock your favourite brands like Dr Martens, Vans, Converse, Sketchers, and Havianas, as well as formal and casual styles.
