About Us

 

Inspired by cultures from around the World, mixed with a lifestyle unique to the Hawaiian Islands. Cultures that express themselves through Art. Island Snow translates this zest for life, a respect for what surrounds us in nature and creates a new and fresh experience. Hawaii is our Home. The World is our Stage. 

James Kodama grew up in Kailua, Oahu. His dream was to own a business one day that would be a fun gathering place for friends and ohana (family). A business that would spread the “Aloha spirit”, a feeling that is so unique to Hawaii. In 1979, Island Snow was born. Its unusual offering combined authentic Hawaiian shave ice with a premium locally made clothing line. Through these quality products, Island Snow embraces it’s Hawaiian roots and perpetuates Kodama’s dream to share the Aloha with you and your ohana.
