Shadow Gym was founded in 2025 with one simple mission: to bring high-quality, long-lasting fitness gear to New Zealanders who deserve the best. It all started when our founder, a lifelong fitness enthusiast, grew frustrated with cheap, short-lived equipment that couldn’t keep up with serious training. Determined to change the game, they began sourcing premium gym equipment, clothing, and accessories from trusted suppliers worldwide. What began as a small online operation quickly gained a loyal customer base thanks to our commitment to unbeatable quality, honest service, and customer support people can rely on. Today, Flex Panda continues to grow, driven by the belief that every customer deserves gear that lasts and a store they can trust.
