We're at the H.I.M.
Aloha folks. Our shop will be closed on Thursday and Saturday. Instead we will be at the H.I.M. conference at the Hawaii Convention Center. Come out and say hi. The hours here are Thursday from 5pm-8:30pm, Friday from 10am-8:30pm, and Saturday from 10am-1:30pm. We have all our stuff and even some new goodies. See you here...
Mele Kalikimaka! Hau'oli Makahiki Hou!
Happy New Year everyone!!! We hope everyone had a spectacular Christmas as well!!! I know we did. A big thanks to everyone that has been coming in for the past few weeks to snag some last minute tees as gifts for friends and family. It's been good to see new faces and meet new people. Everyone here had a killer time with family and friends. Complete with mass heaps of food and Ted's Bakery pies (their Pumpkin Haupia pie is my personal fave)!
We carried on with tradition and spent NYE at the Abilla's house in Whitmore. Sadly there are no pictures from the night. I left my camera in the car and didn't want to chance getting my head blown off by the neighbors/crazies on my way there. It was a war zone to say the least. I'm not that keen on making New Year's Resolutions, but this year It's my goal to become an ace Ping Pong player. All inspiration pretty much came from the following video:
Uniforms For The Dedicated - AW08 from Tobias Martinsson on Vimeo.
Basically, pure brilliance. With a name like 'Uniforms for the Dedicated' and a video look book of that magnitude, they can do no wrong. Now, who wants to join my ping pong posse? Haha.
Shaka,

Our friend Speech..
It's been a long while and it's about time we broke the silence. We've been pretty busy lately and that tends to make it easy to forget about our little blog. Well that's about to change.
We decided to post a few pictures of our friend Speech and give him a little shout-out. Many of you may recognize him from a little band called Arrested Development (not to be confused with the television show). They were responsible for dropping hits like "Tennessee", "Everyday People", and "Mr. Wendal", which hit the Top Ten Charts back in '92. Where were YOU in '92, Maya? Ha! Anyway... we got hooked up with him through some friends in San Diego and were able to get him some shirts. It's pretty insane that a legend like him would be down to rep our shirts on stage. Proof:
Arrested Development - Everyday People
Arrested Development EPK (2007)
The group's latest album, Since The Last Time was release last year. Do yourself a favor and pick one up!

Ink!
We've heard quite a few stories of people getting HE>i tattooed on them. That's pretty intense/amazing. Here's an actual photo of one of the many we've heard about. We'll post more if we see them.
Shaka brah.

Malawi/CJ/Phil Wickham
Back in '06, a friend named Jason Simpson had a vision of hundreds of little african children running around in HE>i shirts. 700+ shirts were sent with a team that went to Malawi, Africa. The shirts were gifts for the kids kids in the orphanage as well as the volunteer staff. Jason raised $9,000 to pay for production of the shirts but less than 1/3 of it covered all production costs. The remaining money was spent on supplies and services for the orphanage. Thanks to everyone who helped make this possible and God for bringing Jason's vision to life.
Our good friend Chris Johnson took these photos a year later while visiting Malawi. Check back soon to learn more about Chris and his Photography.

WEST SIIIIIIIIIDE
Had a little Labor Day gathering on the west side yesterday. Yokohama Bay was killer as always. Here are a couple of photos from the day.
Watermelon + Spam Musubis + Apple Iced Tea + Soft Top Boards = A SOLID DAY!
JUST ADDED!
We just added a new item to the online store. It's a sweet little selection of HE>i buttons and cell phone stickers, packaged by Brooklyn herself. Buy them up!

POGS & GRINDZ
Another bbq for the history books..
Marissa had a big bag of pogs laying around for some reason. So we decided to bust them out for some old school gaming.
The O.G.
21 fingers decides who goes first.
HI-YA! Krista in action!
Beardnard steps up to the plate.
Time to grind! Aunties always go first.
Relocated to a new air conditioned spot. Game on!
Bag Lady going big.
Intense Mexican.
Yeah, son!
Re-stackage.
Kolo with the running start.
Everyone got wiped out after a while. This macking stack was unflippable. Big dummy.
Misses don't count. Unless you miss twice. Then you're a goner.
