This pullover aloha shirt features our Kalaukoa print on Buttercup material with Leather ink. 

Kalaukoa

I dream of the kīpuka on the slopes of Mauna Loa.  Towering koa trees with enormous trunks thrive in the pristine environment.  The stillness and calm is comforting.

The koa tree is the giant of the forest, a symbol of strength.  We make lei of its crescent-shaped petioles and place it on our kuahu hula.  Kinolau of Kū, koa is one of nine plants that our traditions allow placement on the kuahu.

Koa is the father of the forest as it protects and nurtures its understory.  The trees attract the moisture from the atmosphere and with its crescent shapes, directs the condensation to the forest community below.  Kalaukoa, the-koa-leaf, is an important plant in a healthy forest.

Inspired by the ivy-league shirts of the early 1900s, the fabric designs are pure Hawai‘i, and the look is pleasingly fresh. The Pullover features a half placket and is designed slightly wider to allow over-the-head dressing with ease. Coconut buttons are featured on the stand-up, button-down collar and on the front placket. Tuck it in or leave it out over the trousers for a more casual look. Either way, it's the perfect touch of crisp aloha!
