This button up aloha shirt features our Pāpiopio print on Bison material with Champagne ink. 

Pāpiopio

The juvenile ulua is called pāpiopio.  It’s always fun to see schools darting back and forth in the shallows.  Even at a young age, they are aggressive and bold!  They are also most delicious, sweet and tender at this young age. 

Living at the shore, we always wanted to catch pāpiopio!  Their strength is much greater than their size and they gave a solid fight when hooked.  Catching the pāpio was always the best prize!

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!
