About Strangely Normal

Claire Dutton and Michael Cox founded STRANGELY NORMAL in late 1977. They began selling vintage clothing alongside '50s inspired menswear at Cook Street Market.

The name "Strangely Normal" came from Claire’s description of Michael.

​

As genuine '50s clothing in good order grew scarce The Normals focused purely on their brand opening a store in Hobson St
late '79. With the workroom on-site they continues to produce and sell from there until Dec '95 when the casino being built had changed the retail shape of the area.

The Avondale workroom became base for manufacture, tailoring and wholesaling until r
elenting to customer demand they opened a store in O’Connell St, late 2006 in the Auckland CBD. 

​

Claire and Michael still run the label and although it has evolved over the years, it still pays homage to '50s and '60s style.

This menswear store is an NZ icon. There's something for every man. Shoes, shirts, jackets, hats.

Absolutely delightful people in a wonderful store. Had a lovely time in there, and very happy with my purchases. The people love what they do and really know their stuff. Can't wait to go back there. Great place for gifts, too.

I purchased a very nice airplane tie clip for a friend who works in aviation. This shop has a great selection of men's accessories and is located near Chancery Square. There's a good variety of cuff links, tie clips, ties, socks, etc. The prices are a bit on the expensive side, but they are worth it for the quality you are getting.

Bought a couple of shirts as a gift and had to swap size. Excellent, helpful, do-anything-to-get-it-right service. Exemplary. SN always offers a special shopping experience, not simply a transaction. And the stock is fun.

Very knowledgeable staff who will have the answers to what you are looking for. Clothes cut/measured to your size not only looks better but makes you feel confident that you are dressed in the best possible way. If you have the priviledge of being invited to their workshop, be aware that this is a treasure trove of fabrics styles yet to come and if you love their clothes like i do, you will have a shirt in that, trousers in this and a car coat with that. To Claire, Michael and staff all the best for 2017.

Getting a bespoke suit is different from off the rack- you need a tailor who understands not only your body, but your mind and your vibe. Only then can you trust them with yourself to make a great suit and for this I can't recommend Claire and Mike enough- they have your back every step of the way. Genuine passion and amazing craftsmanship- thank you for the beautiful suit.

Best tailors in all of Auckland and New Zealand, maybe even the whole wide world. Thank you for years of consistent service. Always have the best fabrics and I love my custom jacket and shirt collection. I'll keep coming back.
