Ka Nani Pūnono ʻAʻalahonua Button Up Aloha Shirt- Garnet
This ʻAʻalahonua Aloha Shirt features our Ka Nani Pūnono print on Garnet material with Goldfish ink.
Ka Nani Pūnono
The forests on the Island of Hawaiʻi are abundant with red lehua. On the slopes of Mauna Kea, there are forests of towering ʻōhiʻa, many with a variety of red blossoms. In Kāʻū, the redness seems deeper than the ones of Hāmākua. The trees on the slopes of Hualālai offer another kind of reds, changing the light in the forests.
“Ka Nani Pūnono,” simply translates to “the gorgeous red beauty.” Traversing from East
to West, North to South, Hawaiʻi Island offers some of the most incredible views of our
native forests in bloom.
ʻAʻalahonua
“Ke honi maila kō Hilo Palikū, kū ka makani he ʻAʻalahonua kiʻi ua.”
This traditional ʻōlelo noeʻau speaks of taking in the fragrance as the rain-following-winds
stir the landscape! The wind ʻAʻalahonua of our Hilo district is unique. Carrying the scent
of the land, we are immediately reminded of the current state in which nature is in.
If there had been lots of rain, the dampness of our surroundings would be strong.
If the season has been dry, the smell of the dirt would fill our senses.
Our relaxed fitting shirt, without the button-down collar, reminds us to enjoy the moment!
With a cold beverage in hand, we tackle the day’s surprises in leisure. The linen/cotton
fabrication (55%/45%) hangs loose and allows the wind to pass through. Take in the smells,
enjoy the day, and unwind!
We’re experimenting with a different approach to our printing, seeking to reduce
shirt weight. This means that you can dress more comfortably!
We continue to sew each shirt, one-by-one in Honolulu, intent on keeping the
aloha spirit within each piece!
Hang to dry.
Iron on reverse.
Do not dry clean.
