going to main island oahu waikiki and was wondering if anyone knows any good sneaker spots in hawaii? i know they have niketown honolulu but any boutiques?nike outlets?

sorry if in wrong forum but didnt know where else to post. if the mods need to move it, please do so/ thnks
 
^ I think Niketown is closing in a few days. Hawaii only has a couple stores worth checking out. The mainland has way more spots. Be sure to check outKicks/Leilow, in4mation, + Fitted.
 
Just got back from Hawaii (Oahu) last week...

Your regular retail stores are pretty bleh....
Nike town Honolulu is geared toward running and has a very small Jordan/Basketball section
Footlocker / Finishline (Ala Moana) = Nothing as far as Jordans/ Air Max's/ etc
Footaction/FTL/ etc... (Pearl Ridge) = Nothing much either, but visit Protot4pe, one of the dopest clothing stores i've been to

The boutiques are pretty nice and all the workers are very chill
Kicks/HI on Makaloa is an awesome boutique, was able to get my Yeezy's from there and didn't have to wait 24hrs (Leilow is next door also)
Kicks/HI at Ward is decent - they have alot more sales items at this location, very HUF/True-%$+ without the the whole attitude n such
In4mation / Stussy at Ward has great clothing selection and a few scattered SB's

Thats pretty much it for shoes... But you have to hit up Fitted

Thisis like the Huf/Supreme/Undefeated of Hawaii. They drop new era and shirt exclusives everything tuesday and sunday

Email me if you want to know anything more about the Island in general

Oh... and stop by Menchie's at Ward for some bomb yogurt! you won't be dissappointed, tell my girl you know me and she'll hook it up!

It depends what you're looking for...

For SBs and what not, definitely hit up both In4mation stores and both Kicks/HI stores.

If you're looking for something like, say, Visvim, you must visit Leilow. You can hit up Leilow, Fitted, and Kicks/Hi on the same trip (that dirty pornstore, too

).
 
definitely fitted and what everyone else has said kickshi and in4mation. JaA is correct very HUF/True like but without the attitude. You know locals chill yea.hit up northshore and get some garlicc shrimp.

) and settlingin, went to kickshi around 4PM to check it out and dude said they had 9 pairs and 8 people in line. My girl told me I should just wait since she had work untilmidnight anyway. She left and I chopped it up with folks in line and they put me on everything to do while on the Island. My girl comes back around 1AM and wewait through the night til 11AM, grabbed my pair n bounced

Never thought I'd wait that long for a sneaker but its way different than the bay. People are mad friendly, it was like 80 degrees in the evening, and theygot a 24hr. walmart right across the street. Pretty easy cop compared to what others had to go through
 
haha jaa nice to see u again...haha i was the one next to you in line at KICKS for the yeezys...got the blk/pinks the same and now i dont even have to camp forthe tans...

im getting ready to come back to the bay and hit up all the spots in SF and then take a trip down south...anyone wanna put me on some new spots, havent been toSF for a solid year to two years
 
If you guys ever come to Hawaii, this is an updated list one boutique shops that would be good destinations to check out

Honolulu

-Kicks/Hi

-Noteworthy

-Crooks and Castles

-Stussy 

Central 

-Morals Fiber (Halawa Industrial park)

-In4mation (Pearlridge mall)

And as for late Leilow has closed its doors for now. Which was a disappointment, but hopefully it will open up sooner or later.
