Aloha and thank you for your feedback. We're truly sorry to hear your experience didn't meet your expectations.
We understand your desire for locally made items and appreciate you raising this point. Reyn Spooner is a well-known brand with deep roots in Hawaii, established in 1958. They continue to base their offices and design their iconic shirts right here in Hawaii. The 'made in' tag on their clothing is located in the standard position for garment labeling.
As a distributor, we don't set the pricing for Reyn Spooner products; they do. Given the high level of construction and quality, their pricing is competitive with similar premium brands. We agree that local production in Hawaii can be challenging due to the state's small manufacturing base. While we actively strive to source locally whenever possible, producing a shirt of equal quality within Hawaii at the same price point isn't feasible.
As a local business, we're proud to employ local residents and actively support our community. We genuinely appreciate your support as we navigate these realities to bring you quality Hawaiian-inspired goods. Mahalo
