NATIVE HAWAIIAN DESIGN

The “Hae Maoli” (Native Flag) honors our Hawaiian flag using Maoli designs. The flag was commissioned by Kamehameha I to create a uniquely Hawaiian flag that incorporated elements of both The United States and the British Empire. The Union Jack of the British Empire sits in the top left corner, with eight alternating stripes of red, white, and blue from the bottom up. Each of the stripes on the Hawaiian flag represent each of the Hawaiian islands.

Hawaiians hold a great sense of pride and unity when the Hawaiian flag floats in the wind. “E welo mau kuʻu hae aloha.” (May our beloved flag forever wave.)

The 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.


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!
