WHO WE ARE:
We are a Hawaiʻi based keiki (kid-s) apparel brand that was started by Naleisha (a mama of two) and her ʻohana (family) hand printing shirts at their family home in Nānākuli on the island of Oʻahu.
Each piece we make is thought up, dreamed on, printed and/or sewn with lots of aloha. Naleisha handles the graphics and screen printing with the guidance and expertise of her Papa and Aunty Lorna. She's also assisted by her Grandma, who helps her flush out ideas and work out the details of designs and printing. Then there's Kristie (who's technically Naleisha's aunty) who has now learned enough about screen printing over the years to print on her own while ensuring an overall good vibe. And then there's Aunty Candy - the master seamstress that adds her extra love to each piece and ensures that your keiki receives only the best quality products.
Together, as a family, we create each of our pieces with you and your keiki in mind. We aspire to make fun and functional apparel and accessories that you can enjoy in your everyday life or share with those closest to you.
HOURS OF OPERATION:
In between the craziness of every day life. Pretty much any time the keiki are sleeping or busy playing.
