Hawaiian honeycreepers once flourished throughout the Hawaiian Islands, with over 50 unique species. Sadly, many of these honeycreeper species are now extinct, and the remaining honeycreepers face numerous threats, including climate change, habitat loss, and invasive species. The Honeycreeper Aloha Shirt is a tribute to these incredible birds, and a reminder that we must act now to protect Hawaiʻi's native species before it's too late.
Your purchase of the Honeycreeper Aloha Shirt supports efforts to protect and preserve Hawaiʻi's native species. Let's work together to ensure that future generations can enjoy the magnificence of these truly special birds that are staples of culture and native ecosystems.
We recommend ordering your regular size.
These shirts have a standard fit.

"When I first started working in avian conservation on Kauaʻi in 2016, I would spend my down time thumbing through H. Douglas Pratt's iconic book The Hawaiian Honeycreepers (Oxford University Press, 2005). I was endlessly amazed by the beauty and diversity of all these birds that once thrived throughout Hawaiʻi but had virtually disappeared today. H. Douglas Pratt's paintings brilliantly depicted the extinct honeycreeper species in such a way that made it easier to imagine them fluttering across the forest canopy, feeding on the native plants that they developed symbiotic relationships with. These paintings have had such a marked impact on my life, so in 2022 I decided to reach out to H. Douglas Pratt with hopes of finding ways to inspire others with his unmatched artwork. This was monumental, as H. Douglas Pratt has been making positive impacts on Hawaiian honeycreeper conservation for nearly 50 years. He was one of the last people to see a handful of extinct Hawaiian birds, like the ʻōʻū and Kauaʻi ʻōʻō. His story galvanizes the push to protect the Hawaiian honeycreepers that are still holding on today."

I've been looking for an aloha shirt featuring actual native birds for ages. I was thrilled to see this one released and ordered it the day I got the email about it! The print on this is absolutely gorgeous and the material is very soft and comfortable! It's just what I wanted...
But wow, the women's cut runs VERY small. I usually wear an XS and that size in this shirt fit okay around the chest, but the length of it is more like a crop top than an aloha shirt. It's VERY short. Like half the length of any other women's aloha shirt I own, more like a child's shirt. Your midriff WILL show. I should have just returned right away, but I thought it wouldn't be so bad. But nope, just can't do it. I had already washed it and tossed the tags before I realized it wasn't going to work out, so I'm stuck with it, which is a bummer.
But I absolutely love the pattern, so I'm going to try ordering one in the mens size small and hope that's a better fit. For others... just be aware, the women's cut is SHORT.
