Three Hawaiian Swimwear Brands We Carry in Poʻipū, Kauaʻi

Acacia, Benoa, and our own Salt + Sea line are Hawaiʻi brands, designed here. I want to be straight about what that means. None of this swim is sewn in Hawaiʻi. Benoa's own product pages say designed in Hawaii, made in Indonesia.

Everything below was in the Poʻipū shop today. The price is today's price, and the sizes listed are the sizes on the rack in the shop. If a size is not listed here, we do not have it in the shop right now.

Acacia

The Kokomo Full Piece in Umi is the suit at the top of this post. Acacia's own description calls it its original cut, with cut-out strap detailing at the front and back, fixed shoulder straps, and a straight-across rise at the hips, in 80 percent recycled nylon. Here are six Acacia pieces from the shop today, that one included.

• Kokomo Full Piece, Umi, $194, in P, S, and M
• Ivy Piped Full Piece, Rum, $242, in P, S, and L
• Wren Swim Top, Umi, $123, in P, M, and L
• Ralphy Bottom, Umi, $109, in S, M, and L
• Cannons Top, Lou, $139, in P, S, M, and L
• Hookipa Bottoms, Lou, $128, in P, S, M, and L

There are two pairs in that list. The Wren Top and the Ralphy Bottom are both in Umi, so M and L will match. The Cannons Top and the Hookipa Bottoms are both in Lou, and those match in P, S, M, and L.

Benoa

Here are five Benoa pieces that were hanging in Poʻipū today.

• India Top, Guava, $105, in P, S, M, and L
• Mia Bottom, Guava, $95, in P, S, and M
• Tahiti Top, Cowrie Basket, $90, in P, S, M, and L
• Johnny Bottom, Cowrie Basket, $90, in P, S, M, and L
• Stella 2.0 One Piece, Velzy, $210, in P, S, M, and XL

The India Top and the Mia Bottom make a set in Guava in P, S, and M. The Tahiti Top and the Johnny Bottom make one in Cowrie Basket in P, S, M, and L. Benoa's description of the Mia Bottom says it fits true to size, and its description of the Tahiti Top calls it moderate coverage with thin fixed straps and a simple open back.

Salt + Sea, our own line

The swim in our own line is thin in the shop right now. Two pieces from it, a one piece for women and trunks for the keiki.

• Misha One Piece, Mushroom, $89, in XS and L. One left in L. In the shop only, not on the website yet.
• Hanakoa Surf Trunks for keiki, $28, in sizes 0, 6, 8, and 10

The trunks are our pink hibiscus print, in quick dry poly with an elastic waistband you can adjust.

Come try them on

All of it was on the floor in Poʻipū today. Every piece here has a page on the site except the Misha One Piece, which is in the shop but not on the website yet, so ask for that one by name. Sizes move through the week, so what is written here is what was hanging today. If you want a size that is not listed, message us and we will check.
