Wave crashing onto a sandy beach

talk (her) story.

typewrite(her) tees was created by a localgirl from Oahu who was raised with the island custom of omiyage.


our story started after the 2023 Maui fires, when mainland friends sent donations to help with recovery efforts. local island tee shirts became her heartfelt mahalo for their generosity.


when the 2025 LA fires hit, kindness and donations flowed in again for first responders and recovering communities in her City of Angels. she gifted her gratitude by designing vintage-inspired Tees, a reminder of the every day aloha wear she grew up with.

today, every design carries a poem of aloha as we celebrate the people who show up and the stories that connect us.

our hope is to continue this wave of compassion, and your purchases support our CommuniTee Mission to pass the aloha forward to those in need. 

talk story with us and share your kindness.
