This Ahuna Anorak Jacket features our Healakūpono print on Smoke material with Black and Torch ink.  Healakūpono Top Notch Automotive specializes in lifting trucks.  They have taken our personal trucks, modified height and wheels, and delivered exceptional next-level super trucks.  For their ten-year anniversary, we collaborated creating an aloha shirt. “He Ala Kūpono” was designed to acknowledge the many ala - or paths - that their trucks navigate.  Dependability is most important, but the intricate work they do also guided the art going into this anniversary design.  These important ideas manifested in the various niho and pewa patterns that appear throughout the print.  The map of Hawaiʻi Island illustrates where they operate as well as the island-wide capability of the vehicles they modify both on and off the pavement.   This design was named He Ala Kūpono, “the proper path,” not only to call to the many ala that their trucks travel, but to recognize the kūlana of Top Notch’s work. ʻAhuna Anorak Jacket - 100% cotton oxford woven The anorak originated north of us in the Artic lands.  Because of the extreme cold,a cover-up was made from animal skins designed to protect their bodies.  More than a century has gone by and this jacket style lives on. Our ʻAhuna Anorak is made for tropical climes with 100% ripstop cotton.  Comfortable in chilly Waimea Canyon and enjoyable in cool Holualoa, the hoodie provides security!  The elastic cuffs and ties to cinch the waist add to your stylings.   ʻAhuna is the term for a ti-leaf rain cape, coat, or garment.  We give our anorak this name as it reminds us of the fisherwoman who accompanied Aunty Edith as she fished the shorelines fronting Keaukaha homesteads.
