living in Kaimuki is cool. a long strip of shops and restaurant changing all the time. been passing by this new shop that popped up right near my house. had the chance to finally go inside and see what it’s all about.
Surf N Hula is a hawaiian vintage collectors dream store. just by the display in the windows, it takes you back to the good old hawaiian days.
and when you walk in, you can’t stop looking at every piece of hawaiian history.
this is a one of kind shop. the owner has been collecting hawaiian items for decades and will finally let some go. and the prices are pretty reasonable.
of course, surfboards and skateboards always catches my attention. check out that Gerry Lopez lighting bolt surfboard for sale!
old bottles too. probably older than you.
and man toys.
had some pretty authentic old contest surfing trophies too.
and this skateboard with metal wheels. i remember that!
a piece of history for only $112. not too bad at all. in fact, i have so many friends in japan that would buy this skateboard right now.
and the original hula dolls.
remember Primo beer? omg, my grandpa use to drink that 40 years ago.
i remember my grandpa drinking Primo beers in his Primo aloha shirt. classic.
old pay phones too. cool.
more hula dolls.
and of course, glass fishing floats that floated to hawaii all the way from japan. you will never find one of these on the beach these days.
here’s my advise. if you are a collector, you better go and get your antiques fast because stores like this won’t last too long. once most of it is sold, it will probably close down. it’s definitely a one of a kind store for everybody who loves hawaii will surely love.
