The Maui baby bodysuit, for the island that is the Valley Isle. Soft fine jersey with the Maui 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 Maui piece most often bought for someone else.

Our unisex infant bodysuit pairs light 4.5 oz (153 g/m²) fine jersey with ribbed binding, side seams, and a secure snap crotch for easy changes. It's soft and breathable, in 100% combed ringspun cotton for solid colors and a cotton–polyester blend for heather shades.

Maui is two volcanoes joined by a green isthmus: Haleakalā, the House of the Sun, rising about 10,023 feet on the east, and the older West Maui Mountains with ʻĪao Valley and the ʻĪao Needle on the west. Polynesian voyagers settled it more than a thousand years ago, Kamehameha took it at Kepaniwai in 1790, and Lahaina was the royal capital from about 1802 to 1845.

The whaling and missionary era of the 1820s to 60s gave way to sugar and pineapple, and the Road to Hāna still winds past waterfalls and sea cliffs to the windward coast. Kāʻanapali and Wailea hold the golden beaches, Waiʻānapanapa the black sand. The Valley Isle 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?

For a time Maui was the seat of that kingdom. Lahaina, on the island's west shore, served as the royal capital of the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi from 1820 until 1845, when the seat of government moved to Honolulu. In those decades it was also one of the busiest whaling ports in the Pacific, where hundreds of ships wintered and a missionary community took root. Much of that historic town has since been lost, and Maui remembers Lahaina's royal and maritime past as a tender part of the island's story — the place where, for a generation, the Hawaiian kingdom kept its court.

The nineteenth and twentieth centuries reshaped the land. Sugar and pineapple plantations spread across the central valley and the slopes, drawing workers from around the Pacific and diverting West Maui's streams to irrigate the cane — a transformation that brought new communities and lasting costs. The Kingdom of Hawaiʻi was overthrown in 1893 and the islands annexed by the United States in 1898; Hawaiʻi became the fiftieth state in 1959. Through all of it Native Hawaiian culture endured on Maui, carried in language, place names, and the steady work of keeping tradition alive.

Why People Visit Maui

Maui draws visitors for its landscape and its depth — a sacred volcanic summit, a rainforest coast road, a green valley behind the harbor towns, and the Pacific where humpbacks winter — all carried by a living Native Hawaiian culture. People come for Haleakalā, the Road to Hāna, and the beaches, and stay for the quiet of upcountry and the sense of a place with a long memory. It is scenic, storied, and unmistakably Hawaiian.
