Coco Moon
Brand · Kids and baby
Growing up the daughter of a Maui waterman connected me to our island culture.
My fondest memories are of long days on the ocean—diving, surfing, and fishing until the setting sun painted the sky. I came to appreciate that connection even more when I moved to the mainland for college and career. And it grew even stronger when I returned home to Hawaiʻi to start my family.
Late one night while nursing my son, my mind began to wander as I once again reached for the pareo I often used as a baby blanket. Though it functioned well enough, it had no lasting meaning to me—far from a cherished baby keepsake. I longed for something that connected to the Hawaiʻi I love, where a deep sense of community, beautiful arts and traditions, and devotion to ‘ohana are woven into all we do. In essence, Coco Moon was born that night.
