    They have a bunch of cool quirky shirts that are going to be a lot more unique than the other touristy attractions. They also have a cool small selection of vintage Levi jackets if ur into that

    Almost missed the shop, but luckily found it after looping back. Wife and I went originally to see if Avian is there (Terrace house fans), but we just missed her. Her mom was there and she was so nice! Their dog was there too and super cute. Lots of great clothes to look at, wife got a shirt of the dog and I got an 88tees hat. Worth the visit for sure!

    Bought some sick shirts, shorts, and an ILA Swim bathing suit from here. We also got to meet Avian, which was awesome! Will definitely be coming back here next time I find myself in Oahu. Out of curiosity, does anyone know what the ILA in ILA Swim stand for?

    Love this store! Ever since we seen it on Terrace House, we had to go look inside. They have so many t-shirts! It's amazing they can fit them all inside of store. The store is pretty much 80% female clothing. We love the Ila Collection the owners daughter started. The music was hip and the stairs were glowing with little colored lights. It was an awesome experience. Wish we could of met owner because it looks like she met everyone in the world that is famous. We picked up some Xmas shirts to fashionably wear during the holidays. Cool store

    If you watch Terrace House, this is definitely a place to visit when in Honolulu! Plus T-shirts are excellent quality and design is unique. Service is so nice and they will check for sizes while you shop. The music is also great to listen to while shopping for shirts.

    There's so much selections here. I bought 3 t-shirts and a patch. While I was shopping, the music remix they're playing over the speaker sounds was awesome. I found out it's from their own mix. The owner gave me a CD copy for free (sweet!) when I ask about the music. For sure I'd be listening to this on the way home. Oh, if you see a French bulldog walking about be wary that he's deaf and can be surprised. So pet him at your own risk.

    Aloha all; this is a very famous t-shirt shop that Japanese love and locals have enjoyed. They have so many types of designs and some are ones you will know and others will be new to you. Just go check it out and see what they have. The owners are always there and super cute, they love talking to all thier customers.

    Local Hawaiian themed T-shirt & clothing store on Kalakuka Ave in the tourisy Waikiki district. I guess this is the original store and broader selection than the one on Kuhio Ave which is just five minutes walk away, but less prominent since it's on the second floor with limited and tiny street frontage presence. I did an in-depth review of that store on Kuhio Ave, which also applies to this as well.

    Super friendly and helpful staff! Everything is categorised by size, and staff are happy to help if you find the print you’re looking for. Plus, free sticker/magnet gift!

  • 4/5 Peter S. 1 year ago on Google
    Staff were so friendly. Got 4 t-shirts for family. My only gripe is the difficulty in locating the shop as it's signage wasn't prominent at all. Otherwise enjoyed the experience in this shop.

  • 5/5 Robin K. 5 months ago on Google
    Came across this shop just by chance and the shirts are just too cute and perfect for a souvenir. Highly recommend a visit.

  • 5/5 Ed E. 1 year ago on Google
    Very courteous staff. Even got a free T-shirt with the amount of purchase over $100. Great selection of T-shirts fun prints.

  • 5/5 Kelly B. 11 months ago on Google
    One of the most unique shopping experiences in Oahu! My family randomly stumbled upon this store almost 15 years ago on vacation and we have been visiting ever since. It’s a very fun adventure finding the shirt that speaks to you through all of the piles. Super friendly owners!!

  • 5/5 Mayumi J. 5 months ago on Google
    Store has more than what's listed online or Instagram, which might get you overwhelmed a little, but a tone of cute stuffs. And I got a surprise from 2 pups there greeting me which was great. Staffs were nice and must stop by spot in the main street 🤙

  • 5/5 Minoru “Tom” T. 7 months ago on Google
    The stock of t-shirts is like a mountain! The store is like a treasure hunt where you can have fun choosing! It is truly an entertainment! The store is rooted in Hawaii as it also makes donations to the island of Maui.

  • 4/5 Orie L. 9 months ago on Google
    Price is quite expensive for tshirts but they have tons of fun design. They have many classic japanese toys from the 80s(?) That I never see in mainland, I'm not sure if those are for sale but truly bring back childhood memories for growing up in Asia. It's a fun a cool store, they definitely have their own style in displaying their merchandise.

  • 5/5 Chris P. 1 year ago on Google
    Must stop every time we visit, unique clothes, unique atmosphere, friendly welcome.

  • 5/5 Jason H. 2 years ago on Google
    This is the one store you have to visit and try not to buy the entire store. Such a great selection and this iconic brand of Hawaii ! Really amazing service also. Storefront entrance is really cool also as you walk up the stairs to the showroom. Get inside now.

  • 4/5 Yao W. 2 years ago on Google
    Funky store with a TON of T-shirts. Already popular before Terrace House Aloha State, I imagine its fame has gone through the stratosphere after the series. They have pretty limited hours, so check before going.

  • 5/5 Madelaine Y. 2 years ago on Google
    Adorable place for adorable tees! Be prepared to spend a lot of time here perusing the variety of different designs! Staff is super friendly and helpful! Definitely a must!

  • 5/5 Medrano M. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome people working here. Owner was super helpful in finding what I was looking for.

  • 5/5 Larry T. 2 years ago on Google
    The owner was super nice. She helped me out right when I walked in. We mentioned and showed we follow her daughter on Instagram and she threw in some stuff for us! Five stars and we'll come back!

  • 5/5 Derrick G. 2 years ago on Google
    Oh how we love coming to this Waikiki staple. Thousands on top of thousands of t-shirts to choose from. And of course always shop some fun techno music in the background. The owners of this business are some of the friendliest people in town make sure to say hi!

    Great selection, great vibes! Will definitely be back again!
