Aloha kākou!
During our Spring 2016 Hui Collection, we’ve discovered and learned more about each of our team members through stories and hats they’ve created. Now we’d like to shine a light on several of our stockists that we also consider ʻOhana, by allowing them to create a mini collection and release it exclusively at their own shop, by their own terms. Please note that all hats in the Hui Collection were produced in limited quantities.
Our final collaborative effort for our Spring Hui collection comes from our ʻohana at Hnrs in Las Vegas. We’ve known the guys behind Hnrs for years, so it’s a privilege to work with them on this Hui Collection. They’ve created a mini collection entitled "United We Stand," which is an ode to the country we live in, by utilizing three different designs. The H Pride above is the first of three hats for the Hnrs "United We Stand" Collection. Check out their own story below, and please visit their Instagram account @hnrslv or website hnrslv.com for further details on this release.

Favorite FITTED hat? Anything Kulāiwi
UNITED WE STAND PACK
By Todd Shimabuku (Hnrs)
As this opportunity came up, I was thinking on just building a solid looking cap that takes aim toward the nation and the country we live in…which is the United States of America. The 3 styles and colorways of caps have a deep connection as Hnrs is rooted in the USA, but still gives tribute to the local lifestyles we left behind in Hawaii. The colors of America with its tonal range of embroidery will make this set of caps a collectors favorite. The caps' underbill was just my way of connecting this whole project towards what I experienced with becoming great friends with the owners of Fitted Hawaii which was the bond of Skateboarding and the East Coast style of Music, i.e. Black Moon, Mobb Deep, Smif & Wesson, and of course…the Wu Era!
