About Us
Making Pacific People Seen With Honour
Nesian Kulture is more than clothing — it’s a movement.
We are a Pacific-owned brand, founded by Susan Selu Johansson (Tongan) and Feeros Elz (Lebanese), created to celebrate and empower our people through storytelling, art, and design.
Growing up, Susan dreamed of a brand that truly represented Islanders — one that carried our heritage with strength and honour, and one that made us seen in a world that often overlooks us. That dream became Nesian Kulture: a platform to uplift Pacific voices and carry our culture with honour, unity, and authenticity.
Our Mission
Our mission is simple: to make Pacific people seen, respected, and celebrated.
We create premium, limited-edition apparel and accessories that showcase Pacific artistry and identity — not as trends, but as stories that carry meaning. Each design is inspired by our roots, values, and traditions, created for those who want to honour where they come from and share it with honour.
Our Vision 🌏
We envision a future where Pacific Island cultures stand strong on the global stage.
For Islanders living far from their homelands, NK is a way to carry identity and belonging in everyday life. For those outside our culture, it’s an invitation to support and celebrate with respect. Together, we’re building a movement that ensures our cultures are recognised with the dignity they deserve.

Our Story ❤️
Nesian Kulture was born from Susan’s Tongan heritage and love for storytelling through design. With the support of her husband Feeros, they built NK as more than a fashion brand — but as a platform of empowerment and representation.
Every product carries mana — the spirit of our ancestors, the honour of our heritage, and the hope of a future where Pacific people are recognised not just for stereotypes, but for the richness of who we are.
Join the Movement 🚀
When you wear Nesian Kulture, you’re not just wearing a product — you’re carrying a story. You’re standing with a community that values respect, authenticity, and unity.
Together, we can make Pacific people seen — one story, one design, one drop at a time.
