Which O`ahu is Yours?

Here are 7 Reasons These O`ahu Skyline Shirts Feel Different From the Typical Hawai`i Tee

Hawaiʻi is more than Waikīkī and Diamond Head.

The places people remember most are often the places they lived, worked, grew up, surfed, raised families - or simply discovered along the way.

 1. They celebrate the O`ahu people know.

Honolulu gets plenty of attention.

But what about Waipahu? Kapolei? Kāneʻohe? Kailua? Haleʻiwa? ʻEwa Beach?

Those communities have identities of their own—and memories attached to them.

The Skyline Series was created to celebrate them. 

2. Each skyline tells a small story.

These aren’t generic palm-tree graphics or clip art labeled with town names.

See the rail? See the historic Sugar Mill?

Recognizable local elements and landmarks form each skyline.

 3. Sometimes, only another local gets it.

Exactly.

There is something satisfying about wearing a shirt that doesn't have to explain itself.

Someone recognizes the skyline. They look again.

"Eh...is that Waipahu?"

And suddenly the shirt has started a conversation.

4. Minimalist design means the story does the work.

No giant tropical sunset.

No wall of souvenir-shop graphics.

Just clean line art, the community’s name, and a recognizable horizon.

 5. Your O`ahu might not be somebody else's O`ahu.

Ask ten people what Oʻahu means to them and you might get ten different answers.

North Shore waves.

Growing up in Waipahu.

Weekends in Kailua.

Family in Kāneʻohe.

A first home in Kapolei.

Sunsets from ʻEwa Beach.

That's why there isn't just one Oʻahu skyline.

Which O`ahu is yours?

 6. They make a different kind of Hawai`i keepsake.

Maybe you were stationed here.

Maybe your grandparents lived here.

Maybe you grew up here and moved away.

Maybe one particular town became part of your story.

Sometimes the place you want to remember isn't the place printed on every souvenir.

"This place mattered to me."

7. They're designed on O`ahu by a small, veteran-owned brand.

Nori Shore isn't trying to make another generic Hawaiʻi souvenir.

We're building designs around the places, stories, humor and everyday culture that make these islands interesting.

The Skyline Series was one of the places that idea began.

 Seven skylines. One island.
