MAHIKU Activewear - founded on Oahu in 2012, Mahiku is a premium activewear and lifestyle brand committed to style, comfort and quality. Mahiku was born when the founder, Ehiku Rademacher drew on her 20 years of experience as a native Hawaiian water woman, with other competitive athletes to craft the perfect workout pant in the kini capri. A precision low to mid-rise cut, created from Mahiku's exclusive quick dry materials and infused with eye catching bright prints, the kini prototype was a standout in a sea of cotton workout gear and unique in its ability to be worn both in the water and on land. Mahiku is bringing their unprecedented sensibilities to an expanded line of their trademark two-tone hybrid pant, women's tops, bikini bottoms, accessories and menswear. *Official product sponsor Samata Retreats/Camps 2017

BLUESMITHS - we're a group of friends based on Maui, Hawaii who basically live for the ocean. They spend every spare moment they can in the water. Over the years, they've all become obsessed with making great gear for their different passions; gear that works in the water, as well as on the beach, on the bike or even in the gym. They really want the stuff they make to be hard working, hard-wearing and great-fitting stuff that they can really be proud of. Bluesmiths is a small company and deliberately so, they work closely as a tight knit team. This allows them to take their time with the best fabrics they can find, testing and perfecting everything until they have exactly what they want. Simply put, they’re about building better gear for what they live for.

OLUKAUI believes that everybody, no matter where they are, can live Aloha. It started as a different approach to a footwear company. We wanted to create footwear that combines durability for the waterman, ocean lifestyle, and a brand that has strong values and roots with style, comfort, and craftsmanship. We view our approach today as part of a path; a journey that started with our ancestors that have passed down stories, values, and spirit. We believe that sustainability and positive living is less about an ethos and more about the choices that you make everyday. It's about your actions, and inspiring the actions of others. We produce products we believe in. Products we can stand behind. We believe in quality of product and material, craftsmanship in construction and finding quality in life by the choices we make everyday.

MELATI Bath & Body is the outcome of Leah Adhihusada's quest for a vegan alternative to commercial soap and skincare products. Unhappy to learn the unpleasant truth that many of these products are made with animal fat, Leah embarked on a journey of discovery that led her back to her homeland. In Jakarta Leah’s Grandpa Fa, an industry expert with firsthand experience in soap manufacturing was her guiding light. With his knowledge, her own painstaking research and the loving support of family and friends, Leah started production. With her grandfather's knowledge, who owned a soap manufacture comp any in 1960s, and her research, she started production with a mission to create natural vegan organic bath and body products for people to enjoy while traveling or at home today, her line includes soaps, body butters, perfumes and body scrubs. Leah is offering to our reader’s l0%off with this code when you order - SAMATA2017. AV JORDEN - Wendy owner and creator of AV JORDEN shares a little bit about herself and her product: Like many people, I have some health issues. I had tried several different things to see if any of it would give me some sort of relief. While I found removing gluten from my diet helped, I still would have difficult days. The only area of my life I had yet to "clean up" was the skincare products I used on my body. So began the quest to find items that were completely natural. Our personal favorites: Ultra Hydrating Lotion, though All her Body Creams are fantastic! And her Red Hot Vixen Lip Balm will add some spice to your life. Her rich and creamy lip balms will leave the lips feeling soft and moisturizing she combines coconut oil, beeswax, vitamin E, raw honey and essential & natural fragrance oils to create her balms.
