A Heavyweight Hoodie for Cool Kauai Mornings
Early light over Hanalei Bay, trade winds moving through the palms, a coffee in your hand before the surf check: that is the kind of morning this hoodie is made for. The Koloa Wave Classic Unisex Heavyweight Hooded Sweatshirt is a relaxed layer for the cooler parts of the day, the ones that show up at dawn, after sunset, and on the drive home from the beach.
Koloa Surf Company is an online brand inspired by Kauai, not a storefront on the island, and this hoodie carries the feeling of Kauai's coast into a heavier fleece for layering.

Fit and Sizing
The cut is relaxed, so there is room to layer a tee underneath. At 10 oz./yd², the fleece has real weight, and the ribbed cuffs and waistband help the sleeves and hem stay in place. Sizes run from XS to 3XL. The size guide below lists length, width and sleeve length for each size, so you can compare before you pick.

How to Wear It
Pull it on for a coffee stop, a coastal drive, an evening after the beach, a weekend trip or a travel day near the water. It also works as a layer when the temperature changes during the day.
Black, Charcoal Solid and Grey Heather are easy everyday colors. Army, Storm Blue and Sandstone add a little variety, and the camo colors give you a more outdoor look. Wear it over a Koloa tee, or keep it in your bag for later.
Care
Follow the care label sewn into the garment. Washing a printed hoodie inside out is a simple habit many people use to look after the design, and fleece usually does best when it is not exposed to more heat than the label allows.
