Nā ʻOno O Ka ʻĀina
Taro is an important food source in Hawaiʻi. Each part of the corm and plant have names referring to other significant societal properties. The multitude of varieties indicate its cultural value and the hierarchy in farming.
Favorite taro are esteemed for smoky aura, or chosen for kūlolo. Fragrant is the ʻelepaio, or handsome is the lehua. The mana ʻulu taro inspires the mind. These delicacies of the land provide strength to its people.
The lyrics speak of these taro and their intrinsic value to the Hawaiian. Behind the beauty and food, the cultural value is another layer of appreciation for taro.
“Iwituamoʻo nō ka lāhui!”
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!
