Our singlets are stitched and stamped right here in Christchurch, NZ. With a sliming cut, high neckline and cool retro-inspired print - this singlet is a summer essential for the active Cactus lass.
As with all Cactus products, our singlets feature the highest quality materials and workmanship. Even our screen printer said they were the best quality and cut of tee he had seen in a long time, so you know they're worth the money.
Made from 93% cotton and 7% lycra so they've got a slight stretch, and superior comfort and durability. Comes in navy and white.

A Cactus skirt? Don't worry, we're not having an identity crisis... Cactus are still totally focused on making fully functional and incredibly tough outdoor gear - this time in the form of the Superskirt.
This beautifully crafted A-line activewear skirt is built to serve a certain kind of woman - the Cactus woman. Active in the outdoors and always on the move, a Cactus lass needs something functional yet tidy so she can go straight from the garden to the pub, or from working on her feet to refueling at a cafe.
Made from our lighter and less stiff CNC fabric - this outdoor work skirt is incredibly durable, but soft and easier to wear. It has front and back pockets (and not those ridiculous fake ones like some skirts), sturdy buttons and a YKK zip.
Every superwoman should ditch the cape and get a Superskirt - it's much more practical.
Available in any colour as long as it's black.
- Practical and flattering knee-length
- A-line shape with a back split for movement
- Nice wide band for comfort
- Semi-relaxed fit, should sit approx. 3-5cm below the belly button
- Front and back pockets
- Button and zip closure
CNC fabric - 65% polyester, 35% cotton

Customer Reviews










Down jackets or puffer jackets are a 'must have' for New Zealand winters. Good women's down jackets are never cheap so when you buy one you want it to last. This is why we thought that we should take on the challenge to make a tougher down jacket for those working and playing hard in the outdoors. And we did - super tough winter jackets that stand up to gorse, firewood stacking, brushing past old farm gear and the likes.
In true NZ made style, we're always looking for ways to make our gear even better and our 2020 design tweaks do just that. Strengthened in all the places we do repairs and taking on board customer feedback, the latest evolution of the Cactus Down Jacket features a grunty two way zipper, extra strengthening around pockets, a removable hood, a few more 'Michelin man' rolls, improved water repelling super powers and so much more.
- 100% nylon two layer waterproof outer
- Adjustable and removable zip-off hood
- Extra strong main zipper with two way slider
- 750-loft white goose down. Ethically and responsibly sourced
- DWR treated down - this means when it's raining the down itself is water repellent, anti-clumping and carries on doing it's job to keep you warm and insulated
- Nylon taffeta lining with extra internal reinforcing on the lower back to avoid wear and tear around your 'seat'
- Two internal chest pockets, two external (fleece lined) hand pockets
- Fleece lined cuffs

Outer: Waterproof two layer nylon
Lining: Nylon taffeta
Fleece: Pontetorto fleece
Fill: 750-loft white goose down. Ethically sourced and DWR water repellent treated.
- Brush dirt from the product while still dry
- Hand wash in a warm water using a non-detergent soap or specific down-washing product - preferably one that's nice to the earth
- Rinse well
- Tumble dry on low heat or line dry away from direct sunlight.
- Close zips while washing (they'll last longer), you can also lightly oil or wax zips periodically to increase their lifespan
- Do not machine wash
- Do not iron
- Do not dry clean

These are Cactus's answer to 'softer' shorts. These have been through some rigorous wear testing and we have come to the firm conclusion that they are the ultimate summer go-to shorts for cycling, tramping and heading to the beach.
The SOS's are the shorts version of our Womens SOS Trousers. The same cut and fit, only shorter.
They're made from a lighter, polycotton drill fabric, which has mechanical stretch and is super durable - and our idea of durable is based on the Cactus Supershorts so we don't make that claim lightly.
Great features like quick drying fabric and mesh pockets, ideal for water drainage post jetty jumping. Triple stitched crotch. YKK zip and of course they come with our lifetime warranty on materials and workmanship.
Available in black only.
Made right here in NZ.

Waist
Measure around your waistline, keeping the tape comfortably loose.
- The leg lengths of the standard SOS Shorts fit 95% of people just fine, but for those of you who need them shorter we can customise.
- If you would like your SOS Shorts hemmed to be shorter then you need to add Hem Shorter to this order where you can specify the length.
-
Please note that custom length shorts and trousers cannot be returned so please choose and measure carefully - call or email us if you are not sure.
