Pineapple County

Waikiki may be known as the tourist mecca of Oahu, but for locals, it’s a place we get to go to shop, dine and play any day of the year.

Among the stores that have become local favorites is Pineapple County at 342 Lewers St. (behind DFS Galleria). The boutique opened 12 years ago and was known for its trendy fashions perfect for a girls’ night out, but it underwent a “big makeover” last year and is now offering more casual, beach-oriented styles that are still trendy.

“We mainly carry women’s clothing and accessories with a few select brand names, but also expanded to men’s and babies’,” says store manager Keiko Paahao. “It is beachy, but also trendy styles that people cannot easily find somewhere else.”

Some of the brands you’ll find include Volcom, Obey, Billabong, Rip Curl, Siwy, Frankie B., Insight, Junk Food, One Teaspoon and more. There also is a great selection of fun gift items, as well as designs from local artists and around the world.
