Small Utility Bags
These are hollow cases with zips. Five different sizes. Four different colours.
We started with the 'Medium' which was the ideal pencil case (we even called it a pencil case), perfect for accommodating some pencils, pens, scissors, highlighters and a K-bar (if kids still do that?). But since the invention, the uses have become endless. Add 4 more sizes to the mix and you've got one for everything.
Pens & pencils, toiletries, packing cell, tools, first aid kit, jumper leads, nails, screws, crampons, ropes, cables, lunch, headphones, dirty nappies, clean nappies, boots, books, drill, drill bits, at least 3 bottles of beer (500ml kind - not cans), at least 6 cans of beer...

Meet the Do-Gooder - don’t let it’s simplicity distract you from it’s complete awesomeness!
Here at the Cactus HQ we get our choice of all the packs and bags we sell, and the one the you’ll see us with more than anything else is the Do-Gooder. It started out as reusable shopping bag that would really go the distance, but once we made a few we quickly realised it had far more potential than that.
You’ll see us bring our lunch and office essentials to work in a Do-Gooder, stuffing the roadtrip “get at them while you’re driving” bit and pieces in one, carrying muddy cycling shoes and helmets around, and loading them with beers and sausages when it’s BBQ time. At the farmers market the Do-Gooder makes the other pseudo-eco plastic bag alternatives look disposable.
We wanted Cactus tough, so 12oz C-Canvas was the obvious choice - it’s so tough we carried Jan in it round the office. Your guess as to how much she weighs, but more than Rob (who back when he was a climber referred to his forearms as “Da Boyz”) could carry in one hand! Cactus durability means it’ll last a really long time, and of course it comes with a lifetime warranty even though we doubt you’ll need it. It’s also easily repairable. Yes, long lasting and repairable - that’s all good stuff for the environment we reckon.
- Super durable and washable proofed European 12oz C-Canvas
- Deep enough for good carrying capacity
- Pre-bent straps that stay on your shoulder
- Internal pocket to make sure your phone/wallet/keys aren't always at the bottom
- Construction backed by a lifetime warranty on materials and workmanship
- Weight: 275 grams
- Fabric: 12oz Ultra C-Canvas
- Measurements: 41cm deep (or high whichever way you see it) x 15cm wide x 34cm long (along the zip)
- Our C-Canvas has a water resistant coating applied to it. To make this last as long as possible we recommend that you don’t wash it in a machine
- Brush dirt or crusty stuff from the bag once it is dry
- Hand wash in cold or warm water using mild detergent or pure soap - preferably one that's nice to the earth
- Drip dry without creases
- If your veggies do manage to make an escape bid through the bottom of your bag, drop it in to use and we’ll repair it for a small fee








Any dog can have a regular collar, but a Cactus dog deserves a Cactus collar.
Made in New Zealand from premium quality American steer leather, this collar is built to suit both a serious working dog or a furry companion. With natural finish top grain leather, a heavy-duty buckle and a welded square keeper – this beauty could take on more than just a dog.
Please do not use the collar in salt water as it will rust the metal parts.
The supplier: We want nothing but the best quality products for Cactus customers, which is why we left the leather crafting to the pros over at Taurus. Taurus have been making super tough leather products for building, farming and the outdoors right here in New Zealand since 1988. Everything is carefully constructed from top quality leather and built to last the distance. Just like Cactus, their gear wears in, not out, as the leather moulds to your body with every use. Taurus are an awesome company who we are proud to boast as a supplier.

Based on our popular Do-Gooder tote bag, the Do-Betterer is a larger, wider and … betterer version.
The tub-style design features a flat base so it sits open, ready to be loaded with everything you need for your daily missions.
Do-Betterers were designed with grocery or market shopping in mind, but they're ideal for a range of other uses too:
- Great for picnics
- Carry a family-size pile of sandy towels and soggy togs
- Big enough to fit a good range of tools
- Rob can fit at least a week's supply of frozen pies and tommy sauce into one of these
The Do-Betterer is a super-handy, go-anywhere, do-anything carry bag. It's strong enough to carry super heavy loads, and will last you for years and years. Keep it by the back door and use it every day.

In the old days, before log carriers, we used to load up an armload of wood, wince at the elbow tendonitis, then drop one bit, bend over awkwardly to pick it up, watch another piece roll off, swear loudly, get stuck by a splinter, get covered in wood chips and dust, get told off for brushing off the jersey onto the carpet indoors … then repeat that whole process three or four times every evening.
Enter the Cactus Log Carrier – a simple, clever, no-fuss solution to the daily task of shifting firewood.
Bring in three armloads at a time (2-4 depending on your arm-span). Dump it in the basket, or lay out on the carrier itself. Save your elbows, save time, save fuss.
Use it to carry all sorts of items – tools, children, hedge-trimmings, a couple of slabs … the list is pretty much endless.
Made Cactus-tough for a lifetime of carrying utility.

There's nothing better than after a summers day than chilling out with a cold one on a hammock after an awesome day of bike riding or working hard on the house renos. A Cactus Hammock is also great for holiday reading or that mid afternoon snooze.
Thanks to Jeremy, a design student of Otago Polytechnic, Cactus can now offer their first 12oz Canvas Hammock. He cleverly designed this and he's thought of everything including a pillow system, drinks holder and simple rigging system.
It packs down to carry size so it's super practical for throwing in the car and taking to your favourite camping spot or the family bach.
Fits one person comfortably, two at a squeeze. We tested its load by putting three blokes and a dog in it and it held but we wouldn't recommend it.
