We recently had the pleasure of working on the new series from ABC, Of Kings and Prophets. An epic biblical saga of faith, ambition and betrayal as told through the eyes of the battle-weary King Saul.
You can check out all the sneak peeks and behind the scenes vids on the ABC website or through the Of Kings and Prophets Facebook page.
“Every serious traveller needs a stylish passport holder to keep things looking great and in one place as you rush through check-ins and security checks. This slim-fit number from Wellington company Meniscus Leathergoods certainly fits the bill – and everything else. Made from 100% New Zealand grown and tanned leather, each one is handmade and fits easily in your pocket, even with you passport inside”.
We approached Dan from the infamous Bicycle Junction down in Newtown a while back to collaborate on some bicycle specific leather goods. After a few months of design, redesign, prototyping, sourcing and finally production the Meniscus x Bicycle Junction Grips are now available, just in time for Christmas. Check them out in store at Bicycle Junction or through their online shop. Happy Trails!
Our brand new range of Italian leather belts have just hit our Webstore + Showroom. We’ve brought the Military design over into this range and introduced our new stalwart, the Original. As always, they are each made by hand in our Workroom, on the South Coast of Wellington.
Limited sizes available now, fresh stock is being made ready for next week. To preorder email Marie.meniscus.retail@gmail.com.
We were humbled when Steph Lusted came to us with designs for her new range of Premium Leather Belts and Belt Buckles. As long time fans of her work, we knew this was going to be something special.
We worked to her design to produce the leather pieces of the range. The buckles are each individually crafted in Bronze by Steph in her workshop on Whitmore Street in the city.
If you haven’t met Gabi Bertogg, you should add doing that to your to-do list. She takes great images and is one of those genuinely nice humans that only cross your path every now and then.
We have her to thank for our Tote snaps. Thanks Gabi, you’re the business.

It’s all go in the Meniscus workshop. We are busy on a massive unnamed film project that will take us through until the end of July. We’ve brought in a bunch of talented people to work with us which has made for some interesting lunch chatter. See – deli pickles and baby metal.
You can see some of our recent work in the Gallipoli: Scale of War exhibition and also The Great War exhibition. They are currently running in Wellington, New Zealand.
We are waiting for a new shipment of our favourite stationery brand, Field Notes, to arrive. How exciting! To celebrate, we’ve put the last few Steno Pads on sale for half price, just $10! Remember, shipping is FREE within New Zealand and pretty cheap worldwide.
If you’re heading to Oz Comic Con in Melbourne this weekend, you can enter in the draw to win a bunch of cool prizes, including some Meniscus Leathergoods costume pieces. Head to the Red Carpet Tours stall and talk to Julie. Good luck!
We embrace all the imperfections of a full natural hide and hand dye each piece. This means that no two of our Box Bag family are exactly alike. Check them out online.
We recently collaborated with the ever talented Gabi Bertogg (Peanut Butter Vibes) to catalogue our new family of Box Bags. We’re so stoked with the images and we’ve been sharing / over-sharing them on our Insta-feed and facebook page.
You can check out the images in our shop and if you ever need pics taken, get in touch with Gabi. She’s the best.
I’m just going to go ahead and say it, we have awesome mates.
