Treister Hats, one of the country’s main mass manufacturers of men’s and women’s headwear for over 60 years, was founded by Arnold’s father Samuel in 1914. Russians of Jewish origin, Samuel Treister and his wife Mary migrated to New Zealand via England where he learned to make men’s hats and caps. By the time the Treisters arrived in Wellington in 1912, Samuel was proficient in the trade. Factory in Vivian St Wellington
