Summer Packing Essentials

Summer Packing Essentials

Posted by Ashley de Coligny on


You’ve got summer travel plans, and we’ve got cool stuff you’ll want in your bag. Whether you’re hopping over to a neighbor island or jet-setting around the globe, these Wings Hawaii goodies will get you there in style. And, as always, when you purchase from us, you’re supporting a women-owned small business on Maui. 

  • The absolute #1 essential item on your summer packing list is our Adventure Tote. BEST. CARRY-ON. EVER. Made with 100% coated Tyvek, a lightweight, breathable material that’s water-repellant and bacteria-resistant, it’s extra durable to withstand tears or punctures. Basically, it’s a magic mix of being light and packable, yet sturdy enough to survive any adventure. Ours feature hand-drawn, original Wings Hawaii designs. Choose from cute prints like Hibiscus, Kohala Migration, or Mermaid Party.

  • Like its bigger sister, our Adventure Pouch is a smaller version that’s just as sturdy. This one’s a no-brainer. It’s just right for stashing your keys, charging cords, travel adapters or tech gear. We also love using them for any liquid toiletries.

  • Speaking of toiletries, have you seen our Kantha makeup bags? They come in a bunch of cute colors and three different sizes, so you can pick the perfect one for you. 

  • A water bottle – duh, this is non-negotiable for travel. But a Wings Hawaii water bottle makes it fun. Whether you fill it with vitamin water or a margarita is up to you. We don’t judge.

  • Ok hear us out: a Turkish towel is an underrated travel hero. It’s lightweight and packable, and much nicer than an airplane blanket (ew).  Once you arrive, you can use it as a sarong, shawl, picnic blanket, whatever. 10/10, no notes.  

  • Freezing airplane be damned! Cozy hoodie to the rescue. Will you choose the Posi Vibes or the Whale Dance print?

  • Made for easy mixing and matching, our tank top is a comfy staple that goes with everything, has a built-in bra, and takes up (almost) zero space in your suitcase. Our original artwork makes it a not-so-basic basic.

  • Speaking of comfy things, our Mermaid Yoga Pants have a fold-over waistband that’s easily adjustable to high, low, or mid-rise. You'll appreciate these soft, stretchy pants when you’ve been sitting in 32C for hours.

  • On every vacation, you need a LBD at some point. May we suggest our Ribbed Tiger Dress? It’s durable, stretchy, perfectly packable, versatile enough to dress up or down, and adds a lil’ rawr to your situation.

  • Mom always told you to pack a hat, and she was right. Pick one from this cool lineup – maybe you’ll represent Paia in this bucket hat, or go with a dad hat in our best-selling Mermaids Smoke Seaweed design.

 

  • Travel can screw with your sleep, but our Bliss eye masks can help. Perfect for planes, way-too-bright guest rooms, or any jet lag recovery scenario.

  • Don’t forget gifts for friends! Our new Mermaid Treasure Trove Jars are an adorable way to bring Maui with you. Pair it with a surfer girl postcard for a spot-on gift from Hawaii.

  • Journal everything! Your future self will thank you for logging all your amazing travel adventures in our Field Note Leather Journal.

  • Need tunes? We made you this summer playlist.


Safe travels! A hui hou!
