KICKS/HI ORANGE LABEL: CONTRAST YOKE TEE // SATURDAY, 120509 RELEASE:




Built on our own KICKS/HI engineered t-shirt body and of the same hi-grade cotton (Orange Label V-Necks, Orange Label striped tee, etc.), this contrast yoke tee is on that "saved the best for last" of the KICKS/HI Orange Label releases. I personally love all of our Orange Label cut and sew on the strength of a quality garment-no bias. These contrast yoke tees are my favorite because it feels and looks crazy expensive. Like I can see Comme de Garcons with something like this in their Spring collection. Just an observation-no obnoxious. Get yours this Saturday at both KICKS/HI Ward and Makaloa shops; with our KICKS/HI ONLINE SHOP to follow.
KICKS/HI ORANGE LABEL: TIKI RAGLAN FLEECE PULLOVER // SATURDAY, 120509 RELEASE:





I know y'all have been patiently waiting for this piece because you have flooded our inbox for the last couple months since this showed up in our lookbook, and I'm glad to announce that the wait is now over-well not completely because it drops tomorrow, but definitely this Orange Label tiki raglan will be in the building at KICKS/HI Makaloa and Ward tomorrow; with our KICKS/HI ONLINE SHOP to follow. Constructed from an unbelievably comfortable lightweight fleece and built upon the perfect raglan cut, this pullover is mega legit. Oh and I almost failed to mention the amazing silver thread embroidered "Made in Honolulu" tiki graphic on the back! When I say "jump" you say "off". JUMP...
WOMENS CONVERSE "VENA CAVA" CHUCK TAYLOR (PRODUCT) RED // SATURDAY, 120509 RELEASE:




If you've never owned a pair of white canvas Chucks and drew on them with a sharpie, then you haven't lived. This limited edition (300 pairs worldwide) pair of Chucks for (Product) RED by LA womens clothing label Vena Cava evokes memories of those drawn on Chucks that I did in like fifth grade, but waaaaaaaaaaay better. You can see for yourself. In cases where more art over a material/color call out is involved, I would rather have the work speak for itself because no one needs to be told how to look at art. Its all what it means to you. All I will say that all Converse (Product) RED products are for a good cause-helping fund finding the cure for AIDS. Get yours and give back. Available this Saturday (TOMORROW!) exclusively in Hawaii at our KICKS/HI Makaloa door.
Phone orders accepted beginning Monday, 120709: 808.941.9191.
CONVERSE x UNITED BAMBOO (PRODUCT) RED // SATURDAY, 120509 RELEASE:




When I opened the box to shoot this shoe I just sat and stared at it for a couple of minutes. It is a super unique shoe: the lace system is part of the shoe upper as well, which also creates the perfect framing for logos. "United Bamboo designer Thuy Pham chose to create a clean, low-profile version of the iconic Chuck Taylor All Star. With a circle design inspired by modernist painter Sonia Delauney. Thuy says he wanted it to have a New York style with loose references to tennis, his favorite sport. United Bamboo is a label and a lifestyle. Launched in 1998, and now expanded into a cultural project. United Bamboo has established itself as a pioneer in fashion design and creative collaboration with downtown artists, curators and musicians under the direction of Miho Aoki and Thuy Pham." You can get yours tomorrow, exclusively in Hawaii at KICKS/HI Makaloa.

NIKE AF1 SUPREME "LIVESTRONG: LANCE ARMSTRONG" // SATURDAY, 120509 RELEASE:





Livestrong AF1 Supreme based off the popular UNDFTD AF1 of similar design with the woven shemagh pattern for the forefront and side panels. The heel and outsole are the signature Livestrong yellow. The midsole is black leather and laser etched into it is the statement "ON YOUR BIKE KID", which is an extrapolation (hey word of the day! look it up if you don't know!) on the statement on the UNDFTD AF1: "ON YOUR FEET KID". Proceeds from this shoe go towards the Lance Armstrong Foundation, which helps fund education about and a cure for cancer. This shoe will be available at KICKS/HI Makaloa tomorrow.
Phone orders accepted beginning Monday, 120709: 808.941.9191.
NIKE AM1 PREMIUM "PATTA ANNIVERSARY" QS // SATURDAY, 120509 RELEASE:




PATTA came with it (AGAIN!). Them dudes have been more than consistent with every collaboration that I've seen from them, and this is yet another. I know you've seen it in all the blogs and such so I won't go into the details. I personally like when Nike does the double check (the second being the littled embroidered check on the toecap section). AM1 heads rejoice because this is another slam dunk, shatter the backboard, student section storming the floor winner. Get yours exclusively in Hawaii at KICKS/HI Makaloa tomorrow.
Phone orders accepted beginning Monday, 120709: 808.941.9191.
NIKE MAGMA AC QS // SATURDAY, 120509 RELEASE:


Nike took their CLASSIC Magma silhouette and vulcanized the sole to give it a fresh perspective but still keeping in its hiking inspired DNA with the upper. This is the sleeper of the releases. The kids at the shop have all been trying this shoe on over all the other ones. Just sayin. Get yours exclusively in Hawaii at KICKS/HI Makaloa tomorrow, Saturday.
