Description:
Sure there is Ka'ahumanu Mall in Kahului, which has your normal shops like Macy's, Pacific Sunwear, and the Gap, but don't you want to explore some shops that are truly local?
This is a great guide of surf shops and outlets where you can find clothing and designs only created on Maui.
Day Note:
If looking for custom surf gear and clothing that you will only find on Maui, check out local surf shops such as Hi-Tech, Maui Tropix, and Second Wind Sail and Surf.
Lighting Bolt Maui has some beautiful designs for tropical dresses and classy aloha shirts.
You can't leave the islands without purchasing a shirt from Local Motion!

It's hard to go a day on Maui without seeing a rainbow, palm tree, and at least one car with a MauiBuilt sticker on the windshield. This brand showcases artwork and designs influenced not only by Hawaiian themes, but more specifically Maui themes. Purchase a shirt highlighting Maui towns, beaches, words, and landmarks. Look for stores in Kahului (across the street from Sports Authority), Paia, and Lahaina.

Day Note:
Maui's swap meet costs only 50 cents to attend. Often times you can buy some amazing local artwork for discounted prices. Tourists can also pick up t-shirts, souvenirs, and trinkets for half what they cost in the tourist traps.
Spend the night walking the outdoor shops of Whalers Village out in Lahaina. Stop in at shops like Honolua Surf and Billabong, finishing the night with dinner your choice of three oceanfront open-air restaurants.

Description:
After 17 years on a parcel of land next to the Kahului post office, the popular Maui Swap Meet finally outgrew its home. In November 2008, it moved to the Maui Community College campus, in Kahului, where there is room enough for 300 vendors and plenty of parking. Every Saturday from 7am to 1pm, vendors spread out their wares in booths and under tarps, in a festival-like atmosphere that is pure Maui with a touch of kitsch. The colorful Maui specialties include vegetables from Kula and Keanae, fresh taro, plants, proteas, crafts, household items, homemade ethnic foods, and baked goods, including some fabulous fruit breads. Now students at the community college sell artwork and ceramics; the culinary-arts program has prepared food for sale. Between the cheap Balinese imports and New Age crystals and incense, you may find some vintage John Kelly prints and 1930s collectibles. Admission is 50¢, and if you go early while the vendors are setting up, no one will turn you away.
