NATIVE HAWAIIAN DESIGN

The Ndigenous design plays on the phonetics in pronouncing the word, “indigenous”. The design forgoes the letter “i” and instead uses the text, “ndigenous”. However, after panning back from the design, the entire design itself is actually the missing letter “i”.

The kaona (hidden meaning) is meant to be very playful: sometimes one need only back away from the details, and one’s own individual perspective, to see the bigger picture. In many indigenous communities the identity of the community is placed in the “we” and not the “i”.

The full design also features our logo, which include the three mauna (mountain) pattern triangles representing the three hanauna (generations) guiding native peoples of today – past, present and future.

Wear this design to show your support for all the poʻe maoli (indigenous peoples) around the world.


Sustainability

We've partnered with some stellar organizations who are taking garment printing into the 21st century with DTG (direct-to-garment) printing technology. This means, everything at Maoli is made to order and we don’t have a warehouse full of clothes lying around. This reduces the clothing waste in our business to nearly zero. 

Our eco-friendly water-based inks provide unlimited color combinations and make detailed prints pop without reducing their vibrancy in the wash. Reducing toxicity in the environment is one of our top priorities. 

Whenever possible, we also use organic, recycled, or sustainable fabrics to manufacture our apparel. We aim to make our products good for your body and for the ʻāina (land).

We encourage our customers and our community to demand more from us when it comes to sustainability. Have an idea? Please don’t hesitate to reach out!
