A classic silhouette, cut in palaka.
The Makia Retro Sport Short – Palaka Edition reimagines the traditional sport short through one of Hawaiʻi’s most enduring fabrics. Structured woven cotton, contrast binding, and a relaxed mid-thigh cut come together in a shape designed for movement and daily wear.
Nostalgic in form. Intentional in construction.
Palaka has long been part of working life in Hawaiʻi — durable, practical, familiar. Here, it’s reshaped into something modern and wearable beyond the field.
Made for market mornings, practice runs, ocean dips, and long afternoons that stretch into evening.
Sewn in small batches on Maui.
