You can now make 'It's Personal' with Duffle&Co

‘It’s Personal’ is a new addition to what we do here at Duffle&Co that gives you the ability to personalise your Duffle&Co pieces right here in New Zealand, just in time for the gifting season!

Just as the name suggests, you can now choose to add a name to a range of 10 Duffle&Co products thanks to our new partnership with local Mount Maunganui business Paper Rain.

Making it personal from Mount Maunganui

Bespoke customisation has been on offer to our corporate clients and is created at our family run workshop in Canggu, Bali with a lead time of 4-6 weeks, where some of the Duffle&Co range is made. Behind the scenes the Duffle&Co team have been working on bringing this service back to New Zealand, and now through this new collaborative partnership, you can have your very own Duffle&Co personalised in New Zealand and delivered to your door in 3-7 working days!

“Paper Rain has been one of our stockists since 2019, so when the business was bought last year and relocated to our doorstep, it was the perfect opportunity to collaborate and bring a new offering to life! Terry is an exceptional craftsman, and after seeing the creation of their boards we knew that this was how we could bring bespoke customisation into New Zealand” - says Emily Long, Managing Director at Duffle&Co.

So how does it work?

The perfect gift for friends who are getting married, or a special treat for a loved one, simply go to our website and select the piece you'd like to personalise from the ‘It’s Personal’ collection. Add the name you would like added, add to cart and proceed through checkout as normal. Your piece will then be sent to Mount Maunganui where Terry from Paper Rain will laser emboss your personalisation, and then it will be packaged and sent to the stated address. Easy as!

Showcasing the makers and journey of our bags has always been integral to Duffle&Co. Here to carry you from work to weekend, we bring you handcrafted bags that don’t compromise your values. By implementing age-old artisanship techniques and working with talented craftsmen, each of our bags is meticulously made. Each piece is hand signed by the person that made it, comes with a traceable story via QR code which is on the blockchain, and each purchase plants 5 mangrove trees. The positive social and environmental impact of the way they work is felt all over the world, but it’s our humble beginnings in Aotearoa New Zealand that is synonymous to the way we work.
