About Hawaii
The story of Aloha State
A chain of 137 volcanic islands stretched across 1,500 miles of Pacific Ocean, with active volcanoes, black-sand beaches, and rainforest waterfalls.
Home of the Hawaiian Kingdom until 1893, Pearl Harbor in 1941, and the 50th state to enter the Union in 1959.
Aloha spirit, hula, ukulele, surfing (invented here), and a Native Hawaiian language experiencing a proud revival.
Food. Poke, kalua pig, spam musubi, shave ice, malasadas, plate lunch, and world-class Kona coffee.
Sports. Surfing capital of the world — the Eddie at Waimea Bay only runs when waves top 40 feet.
Outdoors. Surf the North Shore, hike the Na Pali Coast, snorkel Molokini Crater, or watch lava flow at Kilauea.
Economy. Tourism, agriculture (pineapple, sugar, coffee), and military presence at Pearl Harbor drive the island economy.
Landmarks. Visitors flock to Waikiki Beach, Pearl Harbor, Diamond Head, Na Pali Coast, Haleakala.
Fun fact. Hawaii is the only U.S. state that grows coffee commercially.

Why People Love Hawaii
The pride of the Aloha State
People love Hawaii because it isn't just a place — it's an identity. Aloha spirit, hula, ukulele, surfing (invented here), and a Native Hawaiian language experiencing a proud revival. From the Waikiki Beach to the corner diner, this is a state where pride is worn, not spoken.
Whether you were born here, went to school here, or fell in love with Hawaii on a road trip, wearing a piece of it keeps that connection alive. Surf the North Shore, hike the Na Pali Coast, snorkel Molokini Crater, or watch lava flow at Kilauea.
Our Hawaii collection is designed for the people who know the state by heart — the ones who can pick out Honolulu from the skyline and recognize the Nene (Hawaiian Goose) by song.
