Ethical Manufacturing
Ethical production and manufacturing is extremely important to us. We believe in doing things the right way. You may have heard of sweat shops, forced labor, slavery, or human trafficking. Sweat shops and human trafficking are real, and they're happening right now, to our brothers and sisters around the world. These are just some of the terrible things often directly linked to the fast fashion and garment industry. Mass producers only care about the bottom line (money) and disregard the health and well-being of the people making the garments, necklaces, shoes, etc. We are committed to ethical and fair trading practices. We support fair
labor laws and safe working conditions for all of our partners.
Family Business
Naupaka (nau·pa·ka) is a husband and wife collaborative and ethical boutique. Our mission is to glorify God in all that we do, to provide our clients with access to worldly goods made by empowered artisans and talented designers. We hope to create a warm, welcoming, family friendly space for everyone while speaking out against tyranny.
Freedom Keepers
We believe in the Constitution and maintaining sovereignty over ourselves and our family. We hope you find community here!
We're proud of what we do
We are committed to ethical and fair trading practices. We support fair
labor laws and safe working conditions for all of our partners. We are all about transparency and welcome any questions about our policies and procedures.

Create a Circular Wardrobe with Air Robe
We’ve joined the circular fashion
movement with AirRobe. Now, you can extend the life of your ethical garments from Naupaka by re-selling or renting your pieces back into a circular economy after you’ve worn and loved them.
Keeping fashion out of landfill makes sense. It’s good for the planet and good for your purse.

Back To School Gift Giving Guide 2019: Zero Waste Edition
Giving an Eco-friendly gift is a solid gift giving choice. I try to give purposeful and functional gifts as often as possible- especially in situations like finding a "Back To School" gift as compared to shopping from an established wish list.
Here's a round up of some great eco-friendly and zero waste lifestyle gift ideas that any recipient would love.
Emergency Preparedness
Self Sufficiency Gardening and Homesteading Books On My Shelf
Here's a list of my current self sufficiency gardening and homesteading books. We have some field craft, survival, hunting/butchering books too but I'll save those for another post. I'd like to get more off-grid books too.
Where To Buy Seeds To Start A Garden That Feeds Your Family
To start growing your own food, you'll need seeds! Seeds are an inexpensive way to start growing your own food. You can also buy starts from local nurseries or local hardware stores too (they often buy from local nurseries too).
Where I Buy Dehydrated Meat for Emergency Preparedness
I imagine if there ever is a time we are having to get into our emergency food stash, we would be making the most cost effective meals to stretch as far as possible, and for me, that means soups and stews! Adding a few scoops of freeze dried chicken or beef to a stew or chili would be a very easy way for me to prepare a nutrient dense meal for my family during tough times.
FAQ
How long does it take to receive an order
It depends! A lot of our shirts are printed on demand and fulfilled by our partners. Turnaround time can vary from 5-9 business days (with longer lead times during busy holiday seasons).
Some items are stocked in house and shipped out ASAP by Lauren & Nick!
If you have a concern about an item getting you to you by a certain time, we suggest shooting us a quick email or DM!
How long are your processing times?
We generally process orders placed with *on the shelf* merchandise in 1-3 business days. We are a small family run operation and move the fastest we can while raising a young family.
Some of our products are made to order by our professional partners and those orders can take 5-9 business days to create and fulfill!
Please note that processing times are different from shipping times. We cannot control how long something takes to ship to you.
Is the mail backed up?
YES! USPS and UPS are running slower than usual due to package volume, staffing shortages, and other logistical and supply chain issues. We thank you for your patience and understanding! Don't forget to thank your mail person too!
Do you ship internationally?
Yep! We ship internationally and to APO addresses. Shipping fees are based on weight & distance. We recently found a loophole to mail First Class Packages to Australia, too!

Yes! We accept returns within 14 days of your delivery date. Refunds less the return postage fees are given if all requirements are met. Please email us at returns@naupakastore.com to get it sorted out!
When will you be stocking your artisan made items?
Probably in the spring of 2022. We just moved off island to the mainland in pursuit of a homestead! We will be stocking our artisan made items once we settle in to our new home. Follow us on IG to see our journey! @naupakastore
How can I become an affiliate?
Anyone can become an affiliate! We don't have any follower requirements because that's just not cool. A referral is a referral! You can sign up after your purchase or visit our Affiliates tab in the main menu.
I have a suggestion...
That's great! We love getting feedback and learning how we can improve. Please email us at aloha@naupakastore.com
