This ʻAhuna Anorak features our Kūikawā print on Shadow material with Parchment ink. 

Kūikawā

Lucky when you come across a patch of flowering ʻōlena!  Its bloom life is brief so you’ll want to be there when it starts and when it is happening. Listening to Lorna Lim singing Pua ʻŌlena is as beautiful as seeing the blooms in person!

We happened on the blooms at Kahanu Gardens down Ulaʻino Road, Hāna. There is perfection in their elusiveness and we were lucky to be in the right place at the right time!

ʻAhuna Anorak Jacket

The anorak originated north of us in the arctic lands.  Because of the extreme cold, a cover-up was made from animal skins, designed to protect their bodies.  More than a century has gone by and this jacket style lives on.

Our ʻAhuna anorak is made for tropical climes with 100% ripstop cotton.  Comfortable in chilly Waimea Canyon and enjoyable in cool Hōlualoa, the hoodie provides security!  The elastic cuffs and ties to cinch the waist add to your stylings.

ʻAhuna is the term for a ti-leaf rain cape, coat or garment.  We give our anorak this name as it reminds us of the fisherwoman who accompanied Aunty Edith as she fished the shorelines fronting Keaukaha homesteads.

Model is 6ʻ4, 200lbs and wearing a size XL ʻAhuna Anorak Jacket
