Description
Our newest addition - the upcycled Ho'āla Waiākea Tee. Āla means to waken or rise up and ho means an action to do so; together, ho'āla means to renew. This soft, medium weight, unisex tee features Waiākea's classic volcano on the front and the three pillars we stand behind–healthy, sustainable, and ethical–on the back.
Made out of 40% rPET, or upcycled material, each shirt gives 5 plastic bottles a new life. You may recognize rPET from our Waiākea water bottles–it can also be made into other products like blankets, insulation, car parts, shoes, and fabric!

LIVE HEALTHY
A Proud Product of HILO, HI
Completely isolated from the rest of the world, Waiākea® offers purity in its ultimate form.
Located just outside the quiet town of Hilo and surrounded by rich, bio-diverse forest preserves, a deep well source sits at the eastern base of the Mauna Loa volcano, one of the purest environments on Earth. Originating atop the volcano as rain and snowmelt – the water slowly filters through thousands of feet of porous, volcanic rock, re-emerging at the surface as refreshingly crisp, naturally alkaline water. As keiki o ka 'āina, or “children of the land,” it is our responsibility to protect the natural resources of Hawai'i – and as protectors of our pristine source, we promise to responsibly share Waiākea with you, never depleting our precious gift.
HEALTHY
Naturally alkaline with pH range of 7.6-8.2 from naturally occurring essential minerals such as calcium, potassium, silica, magnesium, and more.
SUSTAINABLE
Certified CarbonNeutral from sip to source. Bottles made from 100% recycled material. Use less than .003% of source's sustainable yield.
ETHICAL
1 case = 1 month of clean water to Malawian villages in need & local community support through our Kōkua Initiative.
