The Poʻipū hoodie, for the town that is the sunny south shore of Kauaʻi. A medium-heavy cotton pullover with the Poʻipū vintage retro logo across the chest in black, made to be worn from the first cold morning to the last.

If you are buying one Poʻipū 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 Poʻipū, and the one that arrives in time for the holidays if you order now.

Medium-heavy fleece gives this unisex hoodie its warmth and durability. It has a regular fit that runs true to size for adults, a three-panel hood, ribbed cuffs and waistband, double-needle stitching at key seams, and a tear-away label. Fabric: 80% combed ring-spun cotton / 20% polyester, with heather shades in cotton–poly blends.

Poʻipū, Hawaiian for crashing waves, is the southernmost tip of Kauaʻi and the driest, sunniest stretch of coast on the island. Ladd & Company established Hawaiʻi’s first successful sugar plantation at nearby Kōloa in 1835, the start of the whole Hawaiian sugar era, and the waves of immigrant workers who followed built Old Kōloa Town.

Seventeen early-1900s buildings still stand on Kōloa Road, the Sueoka Store among them, open since 1918, under the monkeypod planted in 1925. Poʻipū Beach Park, twin sandy crescents where monk seals haul out, has been named the best beach in America. The south shore 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?

All Poʻipū Hawaiʻi Items

What's with Poʻipū? Poipu is Kauai's sunny south shore — a resort coast around a beach once named the best in America, with Old Koloa Town's plantation history inland. The name means "crashing waves," and the geography explains the sunshine: the trade winds drop their rain on Mount Waiʻaleʻale — among the wettest places on Earth — leaving this southern tip in a bright rain shadow. Kauaʻi at its warmest and most easygoing, with a century and a half of plantation history a mile up the road.

Our Poʻipū logo carries the Hawaiian hibiscus above "Hawaiian Kingdom — Est. 1795," the shared retro emblem of our Hawaiʻi places, drawn in worn black-and-white like an old travel decal. What makes this one Poʻipū is everything around it: the crashing-waves name, the sunniest shore on the Garden Isle, the People's Prince, and the honu asleep on the best beach in America. Wear the south shore.

Why People Visit Poʻipū

  • Poʻipū Beach Park — the best-beach-in-America crescents, beginner surf, and honu (with monk seals as occasional guests).
  • Spouting Horn — the lava-tube blowhole throwing spray forty or fifty feet, best at higher surf.
  • The Tree Tunnel — the 1911 eucalyptus vault over Maluhia Road, the classic south-shore arrival.
  • Old Kōloa Town & the Heritage Trail — plantation storefronts, the 1835 mill chimney, fourteen marked history stops.
  • The gardens — Allerton and McBryde tours in the Lāwaʻi Valley; Prince Kūhiō Park on the shore road.
  • Māhāʻulepū Heritage Trail — the wild two miles east from Shipwreck Beach along cliffs and lithified dunes.
