was born out of my desire to create something "after hours" while juggling university life.

I found myself stuck on the name "After Hours” so my Dad stepped in and approached Glenn Smith, his long-time friend, to see if he would sell the name.

To our surprise, we didn’t just buy the name—along with it, we acquired a collection of incredible graphics from Glenn’s back catalog.

That’s when the idea to start our own skate brand truly began to take off.

At After Hours, we aim to bring you a curated collection of boutique items—things I love, along with skate decks and accessories that are often hard to find here in New Zealand. 

On top of that, we plan to offer custom-made items I personally craft, as sewing is one of my passions. Our goal is to share the things that inspire us and provide a space for skate culture to thrive, both locally and beyond. Thanks for supporting.
