Where the Islands Meet the Midwest
Aloha Milwaukee started in 2012 as a way to represent both sides of home — my Hawaiian roots and the city that raised me. What started as a logo became a way of bringing those worlds together. Every piece is designed to carry a little aloha wherever you go.
Meet the Face Behind Aloha Milwaukee
Aloha Milwaukee is deeply personal to founder Corey Pieper. Born and raised in Milwaukee with strong ties to Hawaiʻi, Corey created the brand as a way to bring together two places that have shaped who he is and to share the feeling of aloha with the community he calls home.
Music has always been a major part of Corey’s story, taking him from Milwaukee stages to collaborations with artists like Sean Kingston and opportunities around the country. But no matter where that journey has taken him, the connection to Hawaiʻi, family, and home has remained at the center of everything he creates.
Aloha Milwaukee is another expression of that story—bringing together music, fashion, culture, and community through island-inspired apparel made for people who want to carry a little more aloha with them wherever they go.
