Visit our Paia, Maui boutique for handmade Hawaiian jewelry, sustainable clothing, and vintage dishware. Plus, discover the best things to do in Paia town on Maui's north shore.

While we love that sustainability is trendy now, we’ve prioritized it since before it was cool. Decades ago, we founded Wings Hawaii on a mission to upcycle vintage treasures into new pieces of art, and to create original pieces using eco-friendly materials and methods. From repurposing vintage fabrics, to ethically sourcing our shells and recycled metals, to reusing every extra scrap we can, we live and breathe eco-consciousness in all aspects of Wings.

Behind our products are very real (and very cool) people. We've got a dream team that makes Wings Hawaii thrive: a small-but-mighty force of incredible women, each bringing their own special skill sets to the bigger picture. We adore our Wings team, so read on to get to know the gals behind the brand! 

Mom deserves something high-quality and handmade with love and aloha for Mothers Day. So we rounded up ten ideas for Wings Hawaii pieces that would make beautiful, thoughtful heirloom pieces.

If you’re looking for the best Maui boutiques and authentic made-in-Hawaii items, Paia is a must-visit. Definitely plan a Paia shopping day if you’re looking to skip the same-old touristy stuff sold at the Maui mega-resorts. Here you’ll find authentic, locally-owned and operated boutiques and art galleries filled with unique wares handmade by Maui artisans, many using sustainable and upcycled materials. Plus, there’s never been a better time to support Maui small businesses!
