Askew is the epitome of designer goods: hand-​picked items including children’s school bags, Alessi kitchenware, timeless gift cards, luggage, clutch purses, jewellery, moleskin notebooks etc…
When I want a unique or quirky present, I always go to Askew. On the quiet, I have purchased a lot of secret gifts for myself too (love my kimono key ring).
Great, personable service, who talk to you like a human being. Hurrah! Parking all around, open long hours.
I encourage YOU to check Askew (Ponsonby) out if you haven’t already… super stylish store that offers luxury, and you ‘feel’ valued! Quite uncommon in modern life.

The original cool random crap shop. I can remember this place being around in the 90s and being the originator of designer gadgets and funky gifts and homewares. There are now loads of other similar shops around but they perhaps don’t have quite the same sense of style as Askew. Whoever does their buying has impeccable taste, and a champagne budget perhaps too, as you will not get much on the cheap here.
Currently I’m eyeing up the Hunter wellies and cable knit socks. It’s good to have something to look forward to this winter! The wooden sunglasses are also very cool.

‘What do you buy for someone who has everything?’ is a common question I find myself pondering when faced with the task of buying Birthday presents. All my friends are pretty independent and are now at a stage in life where they buy what they want, when they want it. Link this with a divergence in taste makes purchasing gifts more tricky as the years pass. The latest Pop music album doesn’t get the desire reaction any more! I am therefore thankful for Askew Design Store for providing a cavern of perfectly manicured white lines filled with a collection of unique-​ness. Even if you walk in with absolutley no inspiration, within minutes your palms are laced with possibility. I have been quite protective to date of this store, but am happy to recommend it to everyone apart from those I am likely to buy for!

If you’re in need of cool but useless stuff then Askew is the place for you. Do you have a partner, family member or friend who has everything? Well, they don’t have the stuff in Askew.
In fact, the shop is so well stocked that even your dog that has everything is well catered for — particularly if he has a thing for S&M. Yep, that’s right S&M style dog collars for real dogs. If your pup is a little more mainstream then a gourmet dog bowl is the less controversial option. It is the 21st century and who is feeding their dog out of plastic bowls these days? No one! Get on down to Askew and pimp your pooch!
