This Button Up Aloha Shirt features our Manaulu print on Raffia material with Olive and Avocado ink. 

Manaulu

ʻO ka mana ʻulu, ulu ka manaʻo

Mana ʻulu taro inspires the mind.

Ulu ka mana ō ke ola hou.”

Inspires the strength of new vitality.*

The words of this song express the unique qualities of the Manaʻulu kalo. A favored variety, not only for taste and beauty, but for its exceptional attributes to inspire new vitality.  This distinct strain is known for its pinkish hā (petiole), yellow flesh, and arrow-shaped leaf. This kalo will branch two hā from its corm.

Manaʻulu is preferred by many as table taro and for the making of kūlolo.  Our illustration conveys the radiant energy of the kalo leaf.

Hoʻoulu ka mana ʻulu, ulu aʻe ke ola.

Literal: Grow mana ʻulu taro and life will grow.

Figurative: Cultivate native thought and awaken ancestral life!

Button Up Aloha Shirt 

Inspired by the ivy-league shirts of the early 1900s, the fabric designs are pure Hawai‘i, and the look is pleasingly fresh. The Button Up is an open front, tapered shirt with a full length placket. 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!
