E kāhea mai ana ʻo Kū i ka Welo iā kākou e kū i ka alo o nā kūpuna.
Ua lawe ʻia nei kiʻi mai ka waihona o ka Hale Paʻi Puke o Kamehameha i mea e hōʻike aku ai i ka mau loa ʻana o nā loina o kūpuna. ʻAʻole nō ia he mea wale nō o ke au i hala aku nei. No ia wā ʻanō ia, no ke au hoʻi e neʻe nei.
E ui aku ana ʻo Kū i ka Welo iā kākou; Pehea kākou e hoʻomanaʻo ai i ka hana a kūpuna? Pehea hoʻi kākou e mālama ai i ia pilina? Ma ke ʻano hea e neʻe like ai kākou me ka welo o ke au ma mua?

Kū i ka Welo invites us to stand in the place where we come from and remember the relationships that continue to shape who we are.
Drawing from archival artwork from Kamehameha Publishing, this collection brings forward scenes of our kūpuna in relationship with ʻāina and kai. Not as distant history, but as reminders that ʻike, movement, joy, and connection have always been part of who we are.
More than anything, Kū i ka Welo asks us to consider: How do we remember? How do we reconnect? What parts of ourselves still move with the rhythms our kūpuna knew?
Kū i ka Welo
Our premium unisex tee is mineral washed to look and feel like your favorite vintage shirt from day one. Made from 100% ringspun cotton, the fabric is substantial yet washed down and exceptionally soft, broken in for years of comfort and wear. Finished with a subtle revealed hem tag featuring the Hawaiian flag as a quiet nod to continuity, identity, and connection.
