The Poʻipū heavy crewneck, for the town that is the sunny south shore of Kauaʻi. A classic 50/50 fleece sweatshirt with the Poʻipū vintage retro logo on the chest in black: the plain, durable one.

Choose this crewneck for durability and price: classic fit, ribbed collar and cuffs, a fleece that shrugs off years of washing. It is the Poʻipū sweatshirt to buy in twos, one for home and one for the person who grew up there, and it ships free in the U.S.

Our unisex heavy crewneck pairs medium-heavy fleece with a classic fit for everyday warmth and durability. It has a ribbed collar, cuffs & waistband, double-needle seams, a tear-away label, and a DTG print. Standard 8.0 oz 50% cotton/50% polyester; Heather Sport 60/40. White may appear off-white; Orange hue may vary.

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?

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.

Nearby, the Spouting Horn forces the surf up through a lava tube and throws spray forty or fifty feet into the air with a rumbling hiss that local tradition ties to a moʻo — a legendary lizard trapped in the rock. And the National Tropical Botanical Garden headquarters its national network here: the Allerton and McBryde Gardens fill the Lāwaʻi Valley with one of the world's great plant collections, a short drive from the beach towels. The valley has royal history of its own: Queen Emma summered at Lāwaʻi in the 1870s, and the cottage tradition she began matured into the Allerton estate whose garden rooms — fountains, bamboo groves, the Moreton Bay figs that starred in Jurassic Park — anchor the collection today.

The modern south shore began a mile inland. At Kōloa in 1835, Ladd & Company opened Hawaiʻi's first commercially successful sugar plantation, and everything that defines old Hawaiʻi's economy followed from that mill: workers arrived from China, Japan, Korea, the Philippines, Portugal, and Puerto Rico, and their descendants built the multicultural Kauaʻi of today. The stone chimney of the old mill still stands beside the Kōloa road, ringed by a bronze sculpture circle honoring the plantation peoples, and every July, Kōloa Plantation Days — the south shore's signature festival, running since 1985 — celebrates exactly that inheritance with a parade, a rodeo, and a week of open history.

Why People Visit Poʻipū

Because it is Hawaiʻi at its sunniest and most easygoing — a warm, protected coast where the turtles share the sand, the blowhole keeps time, and the Garden Isle's plantation past sits a mile inland under a monkeypod tree. Beach by day, Kōloa by golden hour.
