January 30, 2026
Premium Hawaiian-inspired footwear brand brings the spirit of Aloha to Southwest Florida
OluKai, the premium Hawaiian-inspired footwear brand, is excited to announce the opening of its newest retail experience along Fifth Avenue in downtown Naples, furthering the brand’s expansion into key elevated lifestyle destinations across the U.S. This is the brand’s 13th storefront and 28th retail experience from its parent organization Archipelago Companies, which also owns melin, Roark and Kaenon. The new storefront will feature OluKai’s full range of men’s and women’s footwear, including sandals, sneakers, slippers, boots, and golf shoes.
The store officially opened on February 13, featuring thoughtful design, immersive details, and product storytelling that blend the Aloha spirit of Hawai’i with Southwest Florida’s coastal lifestyle. To celebrate, OluKai will host a grand opening party on Saturday, March 7 from 3-6 pm, welcoming the community with live entertainment, including music by local DJ EVRSOL, coconut-inspired beverages, interactive oyster bar experience and a complimentary tote bag with every purchase! As part of its commitment to the community, OluKai will donate 100% of net proceeds from March 7th sales to benefit the Conservancy of Southwest Florida, a nonprofit dedicated to protecting the region’s water, land, and wildlife.
“A crown jewel of Southwest Florida, Naples combines Old Florida elegance with modern luxury for an elevated lifestyle. Fifth Avenue sits at the heart of the city, lined with a curated mix of upscale boutiques and acclaimed dining destinations.” says Kerry Konrady, OluKai CMO. “This community is the ideal setting to showcase OluKai’s unique blend of Hawaiian-inspired storytelling and thoughtfully crafted footwear.”
The new store highlights OluKai’s commitment to bringing the “Anywhere Aloha” spirit to new communities, drawing parallels between Hawai’i and Naples. “Anywhere Aloha” is a call to live with kindness and purpose, the brand’s mission is reflected in this location through its focus on art, design, and immersive retail experiences.
Guided by the theme of Continuity: Caring for what matters today while ensuring it endures for tomorrow, the new OluKai Naples store is a thoughtfully designed space inspired by the fishponds, shells, corals and coastal ecosystems of Florida’s Gulf Coast. The interior palette blends warm coral tones, and soft blues, reflecting the convergence of saltwater and freshwater – a central theme woven throughout the space. Shell-textured walls reminiscent of raked plaster and coral tile create a tactile, organic atmosphere, while lava stone and coral tile anchor the floors and walls, evoking the historic walls of traditional Hawaiian fish ponds. A striking central blue column symbolizes the meeting of wai (freshwater) and kai (saltwater). Complemented by custom light fixtures crafted to resemble fish nets, this pays homage to the sustainable fishing practices of both cultures along with reeded glass that adds soft texture throughout. Shell-inspired countertops and collaborative ceramic coral art by South Florida artist Beatriz Chachamovits completed the experience, reinforcing OluKai’s deep commitment to Hawaiian culture, ocean lifestyle, and the guiding principle of E Mālama Oe I Ka ‘Āina, E Mālama Ka ‘Āina Ia Oe – “Take care of the land and the land will take care of you.” Every detail reflects this ethos of continuity – honoring the heritage and traditions that came before us while building thoughtfully for the future.
The new store, spanning 1,233 square feet, will join Fifth Avenue’s distinguished collection of luxury retail, dining, and cultural experiences – adding to one of the Southwest Florida’s most prestigious, yet intimate destinations where sophistication and coastal charm intersect. OluKai is located at 762 5th Ave. S, Naples, FL 34102. Hours of operation are Monday-Friday, 10:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. and Saturday-Sunday, 11:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.
