Who: OluKai Footwear and the Chef Hui Group

What: A portion of all proceeds from OluKai’s Island Flower collection will give back to the place that inspired their design through the Chef Hui Group.

1. The Chef Hui Group consists of local farmers, chefs and restaurants throughout Hawaii coming together to serve their community and deepen their connection to the local food system.
2.  This organization supports farmers, independent producers, ‘āina based organizations and restaurants to provide meals for people in Hawaiian communities that are less fortunate.
3. The collection celebrates the official flowers of all four Hawaiian islands, with each island having its own official flower.

1. 1. O’ahu’s flower is the ‘Llima Hibiscus
   2. Maui’s flower is the non-native Lokelani Rose
   3. Hawai’i Island is the endangered “Ōhiʻa Lehua
   4. Kaua’i is the Mokihana Berry

1. The flower art, created by a Hawaiian artist adorns the straps of both the Men’s and Women’s styles and the island and flower name are laser etched into the footbed of the heel to provide a special story for those who wear them.
2. Women’s Island Flower Collection, Men’s Island Flower Collection

Why: Hawaiʻi’s economy is heavily based on tourism and has been hit harder than most. OluKai would like to use the Island Flower collection, created to celebrate the natural beauty of the Islands, as a way to further give back to the communities there that have been adversely impacted.

“Chef Hui’s mission is simply to connect people to their food and those who produce. Since COVID, we have amplified these efforts with a focus on providing locally sourced meals and meal kits to underserved communities statewide. With the generous support from OluKai we are able to keep farmers farming, chefs cooking and communities fed.” – Amanda Corby Noguchi
