A NZ Baller's Story
Narrated through design and love for the game.
Triple Threat is a basketball streetwear and training gear brand founded and designed in Wellington, New Zealand.
Frank founded the brand in 2007 from his home town, Daniell St, Newtown. During this time Paula and Fata Letoa had a huge influence on developing the brand presence. Sadly, Fata passed away in January 2020 but his direction and love for the brand will always live on through everything we do. His positive energy lives on forever.
We strive to give back to the basketball community that has provided some of the longest lasting friendships and lessons learned.
Our way of giving back to the basketball community is by supporting upcoming athletes in achieving their potential on and off the court. By creating custom, high quality products that you’ll feel good in.
"The neighbourhood I grew up in gave me many things throughout my adolescent years, but the one constant for me was the sport of Basketball. How the game and I have never left each other's side.
We played in the streets of Newtown and inside the hallowed walls of the famed Newtown stadium, carving myself a career and pathway to winning multiple championships with the Exchequer Saints and representing New Zealand at the highest level on the international stage.
The lines between basketball and life have never been blurred but have always been seen as interchangeable for me. Basketball is one of the greatest entertainment sports around the world and I am enjoying giving back to the game that has given me some of my greatest memories, lessons and friendships."
"But greatest gift of them all - is my family"
