Kūpeʻe

Shellfish are plentiful in the islands! From ʻopihi to leho, pū to pīpīpī, there are no shortages if you are craving a good meal. Kūpeʻe are shellfish that we like to seek out and fry them in garlic and butter. Delicious indeed!

We are most familiar with them because we collect them to make anklets, wristlets, and also necklaces. Our use of them in hula run parallel to the manner in which kūpeʻe surface through the sand. Burrowing deep, they come out at night to feed on the rocks. The dancer, similarly, practices in the protected hālau, exiting only to perform. Binding our bodies with lei of kūpeʻe is like ensuring the knowledge from the depths surfaces when we dance outside of the hālau.

ʻĀkoʻakoʻa

In the great creation chant of Hawaiʻi, the Kumulipo, the ʻākoʻakoʻa (coral) is mentioned in line fifteen. It is one of the first born of all things and that gives it a high rank. Without coral there would be no reef. If no reef there would be no surf!

We offer this design to bring attention to the condition our oceans. If each of us can do a small part to save the reef, future generations will have a healthier ocean providing food and recreation!

ʻUlu

We planted an ʻulu tree as part of the traditional blessing for the opening of Palikū Surf. There are Honoliʻi where we surf each day, we chose a site on the southern side, where could watch as it grew. Five years later the tree is healthy and big!

Our ulu leaves remind us of the kuleana we have to malama our community. We want to inspire others through our work and design that living in Hilo we are blessed with place, knowledge, and experiences.

HOLIDAY 2022

Living in Hilo, we are inspired by our experiences with the ocean and the land that supports us. The sea and its marine life continues to provide limitless creativity. The ʻāina nourishes our minds and fortifies our imagination. We honor both Pacific Ocean and the islands in this holiday capsule!

Auwili (Wind Breaker Jacket)

Copyrighted back in 1948, the term “windbreaker” was coined by John Rissman & Son of Chicago.  Their garments were made with gabardine and wool.  They were popular through the mid-century.  The trademark has since expired.

We grew up wearing nylon windbreakers that were two layered.  The outside was opaque but transparent, allowing the tropical print to be visible.  We introduce our “Auwili Windbreaker” with fond memories of our youthful predecessors…

One of the swimming areas close to our home is “Auwili.”  My mom told me that it was there that Kūkū threw her in and that was how she learned to swim.  When I was younger, there was a store called Auwili right on Front Street.

It’s wise to carry a light jacket knowing that temperatures can drop at any time.  We created this single layer hoodie with a front zipper for the chilling moments or when there’s a bit more wind than expected.  Roll and pack it for the day or on that long trip for who knows what will happen.   Holiday 2022 Auwili Windbreaker Jackets are made of 100% Ripstop Cotton!

AVAILABLE IN STORE NOW!
