The Team.
At Tangaroa Clothing Store, we are passionate about keeping the spirit of Polynesia alive through our unique clothing designs. Owner Joe Kupa's vision with the help of brother Tovio Safou was to create throwback styles with a modern twist, inspired by the rich stories of the Pacific Islands including Samoa, Tonga, Fiji, Cook Islands, Tahiti, and Aotearoa. Our designs aim to capture the imagination and essence of the Polynesian spirit. We take pride in our work, and the styles we produce are infused with Mana. If you're after quality and authenticity, look no further than Tangaroa Clothing Store.
