Aloha, Calabash is a Hawaiian company that uses real wood including Hawaiian Koa and other exotic woods to make wearable Koa Wood Hats and other bendable wood products. The wood is crafted in Kauai and is designed to bend and flex for maximum comfort and durability. The embroidery and laser designs are all created here in Kauai from the inspiration of the Islands. Most of the products are made with Hawaiian Koa wood which only grows in Hawaii and is known for its beauty and golden luster when varnished, and is highly sought after for furniture and other high end wood projects. Each bendable wood product is individually hand made for superior quality, and no two items are ever exactly alike, for the wood has many colors and grain patterns. All products are finished with a high gloss finish that is designed to protect the wood from the elements and allow for maximum flexibility so they can be enjoyed for years.
