NEW! Fitted Hawaii "Yokes" Tank & H Pride New Era

Releasing this Saturday, the Fitted Ohana pay tribute to one of Hawaii's most iconic beaches: Yokahama Bay. Keawa'ula Beach was named Yokahama Bay (or Yokes) as a tribute to the Japanese fisherman that frequented the area at thte turn of the century. Yokahama Bay, of course, referring to the port city in which many of the immigrants sailed out of to come to Hawaii.

Yokahama Bay is also home to one of the more famous wave breaks in Hawaii, rivaling only Pipeline in renown and danger. This set's colorway references the ocean conditions of the area.

The H Pride hat features a tan and teal combination that references the condition of the sand and sea. The tanktop features a grey color with white letters and a white crown. Perfect for a lazy day at the beach.

These will be available at the Kona St. headquarters starting Saturday. For more, check out www.fittedhawaii.com
