This collaboration brings together Kahala and Zippy’s—a Hawai‘i icon founded in 1966 by brothers Francis and Charles Higa. For generations, Zippy’s has been the neighborhood go-to, serving the kind of meals you don’t need to think twice about: chili-chicken mixed plates, wonton min, chili rice, the Zip Pac. The order’s already in your head before you line up at the counter.

The artwork pulls from those familiar favorites and translates them into a playful reverse print that feels instantly recognizable—easy, local, and a little nostalgic. Offered in Island Green and Navy, each shirt is made in Hawai‘i and finished in Kahala’s signature style.

Available for men, women, and kids,

Poi Pounder draws from a 1960s Duke Kahanamoku by Kahala heritage print inspired by Hawaiian petroglyphs, or ki‘i pōhaku, images carved into lava rock by Native Hawaiians to record daily life, navigation, and spiritual beliefs. Figures of paddlers, animals, and geometric markings appear across the islands, forming one of Hawai‘i’s earliest visual languages.

The print reflects the stylized approach to island imagery that emerged in midcentury design. As Kahala celebrates 90 years of shirtmaking in Hawai‘i, Poi Pounder returns from the archive in our signature cotton broadcloth. Made in Hawai‘i, the shirt features a matched front, coconut buttons, and a vintage-inspired collar. Offered in Natural and Navy.

Canoe Club revives a 1970s Duke Kahanamoku by Kahala heritage print originally created for the Outrigger Canoe Club, where Duke himself was a member. Having joined in 1917, Duke spent much of his later years there, surfing, swimming, and paddling along the shores of Waikīkī.

Duke’s Pareo represents the 1960s, when the aloha shirt became part of everyday life in Hawaiʻi and beyond. As workplaces began embracing aloha attire, it moved from a resort novelty to an expression of island identity—worn from the office in Downtown Honolulu to evenings out. Worn prominently by the world-renowned surf ambassador, Duke Kahanamoku, the print became part of a broader shift toward relaxed, island-informed style.

One of Kahala’s most recognizable designs, Duke’s Pareo is recognized for its bold scale and pared-back color. This 90th Anniversary edition revisits the original print, now printed on the face of the fabric. Crafted in our signature cotton broadcloth using discharge printing for rich color and a soft hand, it’s finished with vintage-inspired details including a classic collar, French front, matched pocket, and coconut buttons. Made in Hawaiʻi and offered in Black and our signature Red.
