This Holopali Aloha Shirt features our Waikahalulu Kou print on Metal material with Titanium and Dusty Peach ink.

Waikahalulu Kou

I have always been fascinated with history and looked to it as a great teacher. Desperately curious to learn from our past to help enrich the present. Recently I learned that Downtown Honoulu/Chinatown, was once a small harbor village called Kou. It was named such due to the great abundance of Kou trees and its many variations of orange flowers. It was the small village of Kou that was the pioneer to the modern Downtown Honolulu that we all know today. 

Holopali Aloha Shirt

The wind Holopali is a companion at Kaʻaʻawa. 
It carries both moisture and salt, giving us mauka and makai.   

Driving along the windward side of Oʻahu, we become intimate with the Koʻolau Mountains.  Between Kualoa and Punaluʻu, the road runs along the coast and at times, at the base of the mountains.  It is this close proximity that we
enjoy the elements of both land and sea. 

The shirt’s fabrication is 92% Polyester 8% Spandex.  A straight bottom with slits on both sides gives added flexibility.  Just like the cooling winds, this
lightweight fabrication makes it a favorite style!
