This style is made from our signature reverse cotton broadcloth and is available in menʻs, womenʻs and kidsʻ styles in Water and Pua. Cut and sewn in Honolulu, Hawaiʻi.

Introducing the Hale Kou aloha shirt, a collaboration with Honolulu-based artist Solario. With his distinct retro style, Solario brings to life the historical landmarks of Honolulu in this unique print. Hale Kou pays homage to the area once called "Kou" in ancient times, the land fronting Honolulu Harbor where Downtown and Chinatown now reside.

The Hale Kou design in the women’s style is offered in the Sunset colorway, inspired by the vibrant hues of O‘ahu’s ‘Ilima flower, the island’s official flower. 

The print highlights iconic historical buildings of Honolulu, including : 

Ali‘iolani Hale (1874): Originally designed as a palace for Kamehameha V, this former government building now serves as a symbol of the Kingdom of Hawaii’s architectural legacy. 

Iolani Palace (1879): The royal residence of Kamehameha III and home to Hawai‘i’s monarchy. 

Aloha Tower (1926): Once a lighthouse, Aloha Tower remains a beloved landmark of Honolulu Harbor. 

Hawaii Theatre (1922): Dubbed the “Pride of the Pacific,” this theatre stands as a cultural icon, equal to any on the West Coast. 

Wo Fat Building (1938): A historic Chinatown restaurant that originally opened in 1882 and served generations of locals and visitors alike. 

A&B Building (1929): Another staple of Honolulu’s historic architectural landscape.

Anyone who visits O‘ahu is in for a treat: the rainbow flavor trio at Matsumoto's Shave Ice, a deliciously colorful part of local Hale'iwa heritage. The world-famous souvenir shop began as a Mom-and-Pop grocery store that made deliveries on bicycle in 1951. The North Shore's surging surf culture inspired their now infamous shave ice offerings, which are sold at a rate of over 1000 per day. We've captured their most popular flavor combination in a print that pays tribute to their legacy. Available in our signature 100% cotton broadcloth in Navy. 

For the head-turning Calamansi print, we drew our inspiration from the Philippine golden lime. The hybrid citrus fruit is known for its vibrant colors and zesty, delicious flavor. Its juiciest qualities are captured in this lively button-down, where a playfully saturated print balances a laid-back silhouette.
