Our Story


Applying traditional American sportswear tailoring to Hawaiian lifestyle prints, Kiholo Kai is what the average Aloha Shirt wishes it could be.  

As a seasoned veteran of the Aloha Shirt trade for 35 years, Founder Kirk Hubbard spent much of his life exploring and living the Hawaiian dream and learning the many facets of the premium Aloha Shirt. Taking this experience into account, he and his Hawaii-based team design and make quality shirts tailored exclusively in Hawaii from only the finest fabrics from Japan.

Now, Kiholo Kai is proud to present its marquee collections: Tailored and Traditional.  The traditional fit is designed to bring Hawaii to you, wherever you may be.  With a relaxed, fuller body, Traditional fit shirts are sure to bring a smile to your face.  Our Tailored fit shirts are a more fashion-oriented, trimmed fit.  Whether on Hapuna Beach, 5th Avenue, or anywhere in between, Tailored fit shirts are an excellent choice.  We hope you enjoy browsing our fine collections.  Aloha!
