Maui Tropix Kahului

Drove by this store a few times and wanted to stop by, just so happened to be opened 9am. As you walk in girls clothes to right & guys left;including rash guards, board shorts, stickers, phone cases and the like.
Dad had a pair Maui built slippas but a couple years old, so he needed an upgrade. I also got a pair with islands but Reefs. They have a selection of sale items but beware its final sale! Some of the kind I liked had holes in them or some defect.
I was considering getting a hat for papa day but he has too many. I do like the wide selection of stickers. I may come back for some! Also great selection of sunglasses but again final sale. Kinda glad I saw the sign for final sale because I’ve been in stores where they don’t tell you that, but when you go back to return they won’t take it back… weak sauce!
Now two points off because we are kaumaina & she did ask me too. Which a lot places as well need valid i. d that you are. Dad also is a veteran but doesn’t say on his drivers license. So bring active duty I.D. Maybe because I’m used to SD where they’ll take you’re word on it!

Bad ass store! They have almost everything you can think of. Different variety and all sizes. Small kid to adults. Staff was super nice and welcoming.

When in Maui, you gotta get some Maui Built gear. Even though are not born and raised in Maui, the brand Maui Built always welcomes, promotes, and perpetuates the island and culture of Maui. Whenever I am in Maui, I make sure to stop by and get something here from each visit. You can say it is more modern and urban apparel and merchandise aside from your traditional touristy souvenirs. They have a ton of Maui Built stuff over here. They have everything from t-​shirts, hats, caps, beanies, tank tops, shorts, bikinis, stickers, decals, landyards, swim suits, sweaters, hoodies, and just a ton of more stuff. The staff and customer service is great. They always make it a point to get to small kine chat with you to ask you where you from and stuff. Locals aka Kama’aina get 20 percent off their purchase! The store is divided into two sections one side is guys and the other side is girls. They even have stuff for the keiki and babys which is cute and cool to see too! Everything kinda ranges from the 20 to 40 dollar range. The front counter has a lot of accessories and other miscellaneous kind of stuff. In regards to the parking and location. It is still in the heart of Kahului not to far from the main road and everything near the airport. It is on Dairy Rd. across from one of the Maui shopping plazas. They have a small parking lot section which is usually always open and free and not too busy. Maui no ka oi!

Great store. Bad return policy! Beware. They won’t give you your money back! Exchange or store credit ONLY!

Stylish & awesome quality, yes a little pricey but you get what you pay for. Bought some clothes for school for our young son & he looks great! :)

Maui built clothes are so cute. Expensive but cute. Great flip flops made from yoga mats and u cannot get online. Sizes are diffrent called Missy so check it out before u buy.

I adore the merchandise and have bought into the branding. The concept of the Maui Built brand is the Maui surf version of Nike. Bravo to their marketing people for creating a brand that will withstand the test of time! The merchandise is well made, including clothing made of thick material with high quality stitching and logo screen prints that withstand YEARS of wear and washings. The only reason why I cannot grant 5 stars is because customer service leaves MUCH to be desired. When shopping in the store, the employees hover from a distance under the guise of «being helpful,» when really they are there to WATCH you in order to minimize the risk of shoplifting. It’s an extremely uncomfortable feeling. Another downside is their dressing room. They only have 1 dressing room in which you are allowed a maximum of 3 items at a time. This policy makes things difficult when you need to try on the same style in different sizes in order to find the right fit. After trying on the 1^st 3 items, when you are ready for the next 3 items, you have to walk up to the counter area and retrieve the items that are laid on the front counter’s swinging door. There is NO attentive employee nearby to help you. It’s ironic that when you choose items, you are watched with hawk-​like intensity, and yet when you advance to the stage of trying things on, the employees lose interest in helping you. Also, the dressing room door is at a weird angle with the top of the door too low, and the bottom of the door too high. And there are weird, big square openings on the bottom, to each side of the door. I will continue to endure the poor customer service, and weird dressing room policy and construction, because the products are great. I think that these issues exist because the floor employees know that customers will return in spite of them, thus there is an air of complacency on their part. However, I hope that Maui Tropix can fix these issues.

Cool store to visit, great selection, edgy and Maui based designs, good prices, kind & helpful store associates, easy location near the airport… found cool attire and accessories on our final day and based on friends review knew we had to stop by, Mahalo to the staff who helped us and were happy & friendly!

MAUI BUILT is the only surf wear I sport! Whether its beach wear or causeal attire its da beach wear you need brotha! Made locally in Maui and only sold on Maui so if you want it then you gotta bust a ticket and shop local. No website for hipster dufus wanna be’s sporting a need fad.
Maui Built shirts & shorts sport some of the best designs and fashion for surf wear. But it’s the high quality material they use in there shorts that I’m impressed with. These shorts are indestructible and will last longer then your surf board or boogie board.
Always stop by every time I’m in Maui. It’s an easy $ 500 splurge so pack light cause your bag will fill up before you leave.

Dairy Rd traffic and parking can be a hassle at times, but the staff is helpful and they have board shorts in MY SIZE! That’s huge. If you are a bigger guy — go here. While items are not the cheapist on the island items are high quality.
I buy my board shorts here and than run across the street and hit up Ross’ for tee shirts.

I haven’t been to this Kahului location in a little over five years… the reason was because of the Dairy Road traffic…
With that being said, this visit on Saturday, May 17^th at around 1:30 pm, was a very pleasant surprise. My wife and I wasn’t planning on stopping by here, but there was virtually no traffic on Dairy which enabled me to make a left turn into their parking lot The store was well stocked with their signature «Maui Built» apparel and the staff was very friendly and helpful.
When visiting Maui, I usually make a beeline to the Maui Tropix — Kihei store, but if traffic on Dairy Road is not a problem, like this particular Saturday, then this store may be our first stop after picking up our rental car…

Although the styles and prints are unique, they have limited stock on sizes and colors in this particular store. The store is so little that it’s cluttered. Disappointed a few times looking for a gift for someone. Clerk would suggest we try another store. Really! Gee thanks?

Another great store with great employees very helpful this store seem to have more selection of Maui Built shirts compared to the Kihei one… But either store u get great Maui Built products I stopped by both stores everytime I’m in Maui

This is the home of the infamous Maui Built name.
STORE:
They sell everything from shirts, surf shorts, jackets, bikinis, bathing suits, surfboards to bumper stickers and everything in between. Ever see those shirts with the different ETHNICITIES written on the front? This is where you get them.
SERVICE:
Very friendly and helpful.
TIP:
They have a big parking lot now so don’t worry about only angle-​in parking along busy Dairy anymore.

Best place to get items only sold in Maui… The Maui Built line is sold exclusively on the Island of Maui and if you’re into unique one of a kind items such as this line of clothing and apparel, you NEED TO check out this store… There are a few stores on the island on Maui, one being nearly 5 – 10 minutes away from the airport, and also being the biggest store. Fun place and if you’re like me, you’ll spend a good chunk of change here… I definitely like this place and this store a definite must when you visit Maui… Have fun…

VERY HELPFUL!!! That would be my top compliment. We went in to buy leashes for SUP boards and the lady up front was very informative on what length and type we needed. She answered all of our questions and was friendly.
Plus the price was decent… can’t complain!

Went here on the way back from Lahaina because I forgot to pick up a «Haole» shirt for my friend out on the East coast. The only reason this place gets a 4 out of 5, is that their service was not as good as their Lahaina location. They were slow to assist and didn’t really pay attention to me in the store.

Excellent service by the staff and an excellent selection of t-​shirts, sweatshirts, backpacks, boardshorts, etc. of Maui Built. They carry a variety of items and a good selection. The quality of their apparel is excellent and you can only get this brand on Maui. I always stop whenever I visit.

The folks here were super friendly and very helpful. Don’t let some of the other reviews for this location fool you. You get treated the way you act. Don’t be a moron and they won’t treat you like one.
I will continue to shop all the Maui Tropix locations every time i return. Next time I am going to grab some board shorts. I have never seen another product like the Maui Built brand. They have sizes all the way up to 6xl

A friend told me about this place prior to arriving on the Valley Isle… MAUI. This shop is the best. Wall to wall Maui Built clothes & accessories. I walked in and was instantly greeted with smiles & shakas. The sales associate was very helpful in helping me find the sizes i needed for friends back on the mainland. She didnt believe I was from LA and thought I was a local boy… I bought several Maui Built shirts (mens & womens) and some decals for my board.
And as I said goodbye to the staff there and thanked them for all their help, I noticed that the total on my receipt was lessened by the Kama’aina (local) discount the manager had given me at the register. I was surprised by that. Totally unexpected but no doubt appreciated by me. I walked back in the store to thank them and to tell them I was super appreciative of the gesture. They said to come back anytime… I will. That’s the aloha spirit… Maui No Ka Oi.
