The Haleakalā hoodie, for the mountain that is the House of the Sun. A medium-heavy cotton pullover with the Haleakalā vintage retro logo across the chest in white, made to be worn from the first cold morning to the last.

If you are buying one Haleakalā piece, this is the one that gets worn most: warm enough for the sideline, the dock and the drive home, and the hoodie that gets borrowed and never returned. It is the gift for the one who moved away from Haleakalā, and the one that arrives in time for the holidays if you order now.

This pullover hoodie pairs medium-heavy fleece with a regular, true-to-size adult fit. A three-panel hood, ribbed cuffs and waistband, and double-needle stitching at key seams keep it sturdy; the tear-away label keeps it comfortable. Made from 80% combed ring-spun cotton / 20% polyester; heather colors may be cotton–poly blends.

Haleakalā, the House of the Sun, is the dormant shield volcano that forms more than three-quarters of Maui, rising from the sea to 10,023 feet at Puʻu ʻUlaʻula. Native Hawaiians have used the summit for at least a thousand years and hold it sacred as the Wao Akua, the place of the gods, where the demigod Māui snared the sun; the last eruption came between 1480 and 1600.

Hawaiʻi National Park took in the mountain on August 1, 1916, and Haleakalā became its own national park in 1961. The seven-mile summit depression, carved by erosion where two valleys met, is 2,600 feet deep, and the silversword grows nowhere else on Earth. Above the clouds 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.

Haleakalā is a sacred place before it is a scenic one. To kānaka maoli — Native Hawaiians — the summit region is the Wao Akua, the realm of the gods, and their presence here is ancient: radiocarbon dating places people at the crater between 660 and 1030 CE, and the mountain has held ceremonial, navigational, and spiritual life from settlement to this day. It is a living cultural landscape, not a museum, and visitors are asked to tread lightly and with respect. The mountain itself is a great shield volcano — more than three-quarters of the island of Maui is Haleakalā — risen from the ocean floor over the last million years and quiet since its last eruption, sometime between 1480 and 1600.

And the mountain has a second face. Around the east flank, the Kīpahulu District drops through coastal rainforest to the sea: the Pools of ʻOheʻo step down the gulch toward the ocean — mid-century marketing dubbed them the “Seven Sacred Pools,” a made-up name the park itself discourages — and the Pīpīwai Trail climbs past banyans and through a creaking bamboo forest to 400-foot Waimoku Falls. The two districts do not connect by road inside the park: one mountain, two worlds — cinder desert above, rainforest below.

Why People Visit Haleakalā

Haleakalā offers a different Hawaiʻi — above the clouds, where the air is thin, the silence carries, and the sun rises over an ocean of mist at six in the morning. Travelers come for the sunrise at Puʻu ʻUlaʻula, the silversword on the upper slopes, the long hike down into the crater on Sliding Sands, the bamboo-forest walk to Waimoku Falls at Kīpahulu, the Pools of ʻOheʻo cascading down to the sea, and the dark-sky stargazing from the summit at night. It is contemplative, otherworldly, and unforgettable — a sacred mountain that has been holding sky over east Hawaiʻi for as long as anyone has counted.
