The Koloa Babe Pigment-Dyed Hoodie is a pullover for the days when the sun has gone behind the ridge and the beach starts to cool. It comes in four garment-dyed colors with a soft, lived-in look, and it is built around a hood with a jersey lining and a roomy pouch pocket.
A Pullover for Cool Kauai Evenings
Kauai may be warm, but anyone who has watched a sunset from the shore knows how quickly the trade winds can take the edge off the day. Mornings before a surf check and evenings after a long session are when a hoodie earns its place. This one is made for exactly that stretch of the day, when you want something easy to pull over a tee and forget about.
Koloa Surf Company is a brand inspired by Kauai, and the pigment-dyed colors here lean into that easygoing island mood. Pigment dyeing gives each color a softer, slightly faded character, so the hoodie looks comfortable from the first wear. Pick Pigment Black for a classic look, or one of the muted shades if you want something that sits closer to sand, sea and forest.

Fit and Sizing
This hoodie has a standard fit, so it follows the shape of a regular pullover rather than a slim or oversized cut. The ribbing at the cuffs and waistband is made to hold the sleeves and hem in place, and the pouch pocket gives your hands somewhere to go. Check the size chart before you choose, and compare it with the hoodies you already own.

How to Wear It
Wear it over a plain tee for a morning beach walk, a coffee stop, or a drive along the coast. The jersey lined hood adds a smooth layer against the neck, and the dyed-to-match drawcords keep the look clean when the hood is up.
It also works as a casual layer for evening fires, camping trips and cool airplane cabins. Pair it with jeans, board shorts or joggers, and add a Koloa cap if the wind picks up.
Care
Follow the care label inside the hoodie. Washing a pigment-dyed garment on its own the first few times is a simple habit that many people use, since soft-washed colors can shift a little as you wear and wash them.
