Hawaii's most respected aloha wear designer, creating garments that are wearable art rooted in Hawaiian culture. Sig Zane's prints are based on native Hawaiian plants like the sacred Kanaloa leaf, each with specific cultural meaning, and the fabrics are designed and printed right here on the Big Island. Wearing a Sig Zane piece is a statement — it says you know the difference between tourist aloha wear and the real thing.
The small storefront on Kamehameha Avenue in downtown Hilo is where it all happens. You can sometimes see prints being designed and meet the family behind the brand. These are heirloom-quality pieces that locals treasure — elegant enough for weddings, timeless enough to pass down. The staff genuinely loves explaining the cultural stories behind each design.
💡 Insider Tip
Don't be put off by the prices — these are investment pieces that locals wear to weddings and special occasions. Ask about the plant motifs like the Kanaloa leaf; every design tells a Hawaiian story. Limited editions sell out fast.
