The Cheapskates Wellington store closed in September 2025. The information below reflects the store's history and contribution to Wellington's skate community.

For over four decades, Cheapskates Wellington has been an integral part of the vibrant skate culture in New Zealand's capital. Nestled in the heart of Wellington, our store has evolved over the years, continually adapting to the ever-changing landscape of skateboarding and streetwear fashion.

Formerly located at 60 Cuba St, Cheapskates Wellington became a local institution, serving as a hub for skateboard enthusiasts and fashion-forward individuals alike. Three years ago, we embarked on a new chapter, relocating just around the corner to 75 Manners St. This move allowed us to better cater to the needs of our growing community while staying true to our roots.

At Cheapskates Wellington, we're more than just a skate shop – we're a destination for authenticity and passion. Our shelves are stocked with the latest releases from top brands like Nike SB, including the coveted Nike Dunks. Whether you're in search of skateboard basics or looking to upgrade your setup with electric skateboards and scooters, we've got you covered.

Step into our store, and you'll find a welcoming atmosphere and a team of passionate individuals who live and breathe skate culture. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, our knowledgeable staff are here to provide expert advice and guidance to help you find the perfect gear for your skating journey.

Join us at Cheapskates Wellington, where skateboarding isn't just a sport – it's a way of life.
