The Kapalua baby bodysuit, for the town that means arms embracing the sea. Soft fine jersey with the Kapalua vintage retro logo on the front in black, newborn to 24 months.

This is the new-baby gift from the hometown: light, soft, with a snap crotch that makes changes easy and a logo the parents will photograph. Order it as soon as the news arrives; it is the Kapalua piece most often bought for someone else.

Light 4.5 oz (153 g/m²) fine jersey keeps this unisex infant bodysuit soft and breathable. Side seams and ribbed binding add durability, and the snap crotch is secure and quick for changes. Solid colors are 100% combed ringspun cotton, while heather shades include a cotton–polyester blend.

Dwight Baldwin settled West Maui in 1836 and his 1853 grant became Honolua Ranch, where David Fleming planted pineapple in the early 1900s and Baldwin Packers shipped it for decades. The resort rose on those plantation lands from the 1970s: the Bay Course in 1975, the first hotel in 1979, the Plantation Course in 1991.

Kapalua Bay’s two points reach out to embrace the sea, Honolua Bay next door is a marine conservation district and a famous surf break, and the Plantation Course opened the PGA Tour season for more than twenty-five years. Molokaʻi and Lānaʻi lie across the channel. Arms embracing the sea is the mark on this piece.

Product FAQs

How does your sizing work?

Every item is made to order, so please check the size chart on this page before you buy. Women's fitted tees run small; size up for a looser fit. Caps are one size with an adjustable strap.

How are items made and when will they arrive?

We make each item to order using premium blanks, embroidery and soft-hand prints. Production takes 2-5 business days (weekends and holidays excluded), then 4-10 days in transit via USPS, UPS or FedEx to U.S. addresses; most orders arrive within 6-15 business days. You'll get a tracking link the moment it ships. Any current shipping offer is shown in the bar at the top of every page and applies automatically at checkout, no code needed.

How do I send a gift?

Enter the recipient's address as the shipping address and your own as the billing address at checkout. Nothing ships with a price; the package includes a plain packing slip. Tracking goes to your email, not theirs. For birthdays and holidays, order two weeks ahead to be safe.

What's the return policy?

Made-to-order items can't be returned or exchanged for size or color, so please use the size chart and photos before ordering. If anything arrives defective, misprinted or damaged, send a photo and your order number within 30 days and we'll replace it or refund you.

How do I care for my item?

Apparel: wash cold, inside out, with like colors; no bleach; tumble dry low or hang dry. Embroidered pieces: iron inside out to protect the stitching. Caps: spot clean. Printed glasses and water bottles: hand wash only, no dishwasher, so the artwork lasts. Mugs and engraved glasses are dishwasher safe. Any item-specific care notes are in the description above.

Who makes this?

All Kapalua Hawaiʻi Items

By the late 1960s the company had consolidated as Maui Land & Pineapple, and its leaders began imagining a second life for the land along the shore. In 1975 the first golf course opened above Kapalua Bay, and the first hotel followed soon after — the beginning of Kapalua Resort, a master-planned community built right on top of the working plantation. For a while the two coexisted: golfers and guests below, pineapple fields still climbing the hills above. Slowly the balance tipped, until the resort became the main event and the fields became the backdrop — a Hawaiian place remaking itself, as Hawaiian places had before, around whoever was arriving by sea.

So Kapalua gathers a sheltered bay, a pineapple plantation, and a golf coast onto the northwest shoulder of West Maui. Our Kapalua designs gather that into wearable form. Wear the history. Arms embracing the sea — Kapalua, Maui.

Why People Visit Kapalua

Visitors come to Kapalua for the bays — the calm, reef-fringed water that earns the best-beach lists — and stay for the layered scenery: a manicured golf coast, plantation uplands, and the channel islands on the horizon. It is quiet, walkable, and built to let West Maui's landscape take the lead. Equal parts beach, history, and big ocean views, Kapalua rewards anyone who wants the Hawaiian coast at its most embracing.
