    Inside the store.

    Located on the second floor of Ala Moana, shopping center. Local motion has been one of the local store on the island for many years. They have lot of T-shirts, surf shorts and they also carry other name brands too. T-shirt usually cost about $23 or so, pretty good price. I brought a very traditional T-shirt with their logo on it. If you come to visit Hawaii, you should go get one Local motion shirt and bring home. Go check it out.

    Sweaters with the zipper in front

    Local Motion is located on the third level of the Ewa Wing at Ala Moana Center. I stepped foot into the clothing store a couple of times already. The advertisement of buy one get second one 50% off captured my attention. Each time I stepped foot into the store the employees would greet me right away. During my first visit I walked around the store until I reached the men's section and I found a rack with sweaters. Some of the sweaters were hoodies while other sweaters had the zipper in front. I ended up grabbing two sweaters with the zipper in front. I paid for my items using my credit card. On my most recent visit to Local Motion was on Mother's Day 2019. My mom and I walked into the store and started to browse around. My mom mentioned to me that she wanted tank tops. We looked at the women's tank tops and we found couple of them. I grabbed two XL tank tops for my mom. We then went to the men's section and I found two tank tops that I liked. Two of the items were regular priced while the other two items were 50% off. I paid for the four tank tops and gave Mom her items while I kept the other two. Mom was happy with her Mother's Day gift.

    On a hunt for some sustainable swimming shorts? These ones are made from up-cycled coconut "waste" and plastic bottles to create perfect performance shorts - fast-drying and odor-resistant! Good design, have a pocket on one side with Velcro and a string to attach keys etc. Tested by my husband - very good quality!

    Dry bag backpack $28

    Pretty cool shop. Typically Surf / Skate clothing offered. A little bit more of trendier end of clothing as a opposed to places. They have some great brand and they also produce their own clothing and accessories. I just got this cool 20 L dry bag backpack for $28. I've been to marine store and saw basically the same for as much $60 in the past, without any backpack straps. They had lots of different sizes and very useful in Hawaii where there's a lot of exposure to the elements. I usually browse the shirts and board shorts here Own a shirt or two. They make their own Aloha shirts too. It's nice to have lots of local shops doing their own thing in the area. I need to stop in more often they have some cool products.

    Soft opening for the new Local Motion in Ala Moana, and I must say, I'm really impressed. Located in the old Diesel spot that was next to their old location, Local Motion has always been one of my favorite places to shop, and they really stepped up their shopping experience. A lot of their clothes are efficiently and tastefully displayed making sure you know the product youre buying. They have a pretty sick mural in their board room, which they expanded. And, I've been told that the mural will change every so often which is pretty awesome. Their merchandise is always on point, and they have a good selection of both surf and lifestyle. Definitely a must shop for surf gear.

    Every time I get a chance to visit Waikiki, I always stop at Mahina and this location in particular…read morenot only for its wonderful selection of clothing and accessories, especially its jewelry, but also the lovely service from the individuals who work there. They are full of the aloha spirit, super friendly, and helpful. Make you feel right at home. I really like that they have a variety of items that are wearable not only if you're visiting Hawaii on vacation but also things that you can take back home especially if you live in California or have a coastal beach style. Their jewelry selection is so cute lots of little island themed type jewelry that is sophisticated and dainty and not overly priced at all - very affordable. They also get new inventory quite often so it's great to be able to check them out if you're staying for a longer period of time to see if they have new items or if you're like me you may just be tempted to go back to make another purchase. Mahalo for the aloha Mahina!

    ABSOLUTELY HORRENDOUS!…read more It's unfortunate because our experience started off so well. Around 9:30 a.m., I found a really cute dress that I decided to wear for dinner. The girl who checked us out was incredibly kind and helpful, so I want to be very clear that this review is not about her. She was wonderful. During checkout, she told us we had 14 days to return the dress if we decided we didn't like it, so we felt completely comfortable making the purchase if we didn't end up changing our mind. At around 3:30 p.m.--only about six hours later--I tried the dress on with the strapless bra I planned to wear and realized it was cut much lower on the side than I had thought. Unfortunately, it showed way more side than I was comfortable with, so I made the five-minute walk back to the store. I brought the dress back with the tags still attached, the original shopping bag, and my receipt. I was then told that returns were not allowed, but they could offer store credit instead. We explained that we had specifically been told we could return it within 14 days. The employee responded by circling the return policy printed on the receipt. The problem is that you don't receive the receipt until after you've already paid. We relied on the information we were given at checkout. We asked if a manager could be contacted. The employee first texted the manager, and for a moment it sounded like an exception might be made. Ultimately, the answer was still no. We then asked if she could call the manager directly. Unfortunately, the manager was incredibly rude and dismissive over the phone. We explained that we felt we had been misled and that we would be disputing the charge and leaving a review. Her response was simply, "Okay." There was no concern, no apology, and no attempt to make things right. And the manager was so aggressive. It's disappointing because this entire situation could have been avoided if we had been given accurate information at checkout. Instead, what started as a great shopping experience ended with some of the worst customer service I've experienced.

They have a wide range of clothing selection. I like how they just put one of each size out and they will replenish it from the back if a size gets sold. It makes it easier to shop when the racks are not overloaded. I lost some weight so I was so happy when their jeans finally fit me. The last time we came, the zipper wouldn't go up. My daughter was helping me zip it up and I felt like I was in the movie White Chicks! Lol. Bought a couple of earrings, a cute bracelet, two tops and a jeans. My daughter went nuts with the jumpers and bought a pair of jeans.. with her own money! Lol! We love this place and we will def be back!

I love how Elena gets to know her customers and always remembers them as they come in. She's super sweet and very helpful. She also has an online shop which gives the option to ship or pick up in store. They have sales on a regular basis and carries good quality clothing & accessories for a reasonable price. I absolutely love shopping there and could not recommend them more highly!

    They sell a variety of aloha-wear inspired clothing and they just released dog bandannas as well!…read moreThey are so cute. The bandana matches the clothing so I can see this being popular with dog owners. They sell their matcha tins indoors as well as keep it Kaimuki merchandise so if you ever wanted to come by and pick it up you can find a selection here. They have limited outdoor seating to chill with open-air vibes. I especially love to come here and visit Frankie the shop mascot. He is so friendly and loves people

I was assisted to try on a few dresses. The dresses feel soft and are flattering. What I love the most is the dress I chose has pockets. I was able to find a matching shirt for my husband and a dress my for 5 year old. The price seems a lot, but its not. It's made in Hawaii. Made in house. So the QUALITY and WORKMANSHIP is what you are getting from it. Many people ask where I get my clothes. A lot of my favorite pieces are from this place. The quality is worth the money spent. There is only a few places you can get an outfit that will look good, last long and makes you feel good in it. This place is will always be my go to. A lot of the clothing pieces travel well and are versatile. You can look beach ready and dress it up with the right accessories and shoes. Last purchase I made was for a dress item that was too long. They provided alterations so I got the dress and a week later picked it up. It was perfect! Overall, ladies you can't go wrong here. The have flattering tops, pants and dresses. They have some pieces for the family. They even have jewelry to accessorize. They even do alterations.
