A MOISTURE-WICKING MICROFIBER LINING MEN S NALUKAI KAPA BOOT MUSTANG / BONE $130 Voice of the People Matthew Dekneef, Nella Media Group As managing editor at Nella Media Group, Matthew Dekneef has found a vivid channel to amplify Hawai i s voices and share its many perspectives story telling. Hawai i s greatest strength is its diversity, Dekneef says. There are so many points of view, not just all the great things, but also the struggles that people face here as well. It s so exciting to me because everyone comes from a different place in their backgrounds and upbringings. At Nella Media Group, a multi-media company specializing in Hawai i lifestyle and visitorindustry print publications, Dekneef has his finger on the ever-changing beat of Hawai i culture. Dekneef is inspired by the humanity of Hawai i, the stories and voices that form the emotional narratives that live next door to the contextual facts and figures of traditional journalism. Through collaboration and a deep respect for the unheard and underrepresented, Dekneef curates compelling stories grounded in Hawai i s rich history.

A B UNLINED, FULL-GRAIN LEATHER C D Music For The Masses Roger Bong, Aloha Got Soul Roger Bong has soul for eternity and vinyl for miles. After blogging for five years about rare and obscure 70s and 80s music of Hawai i under the moniker Aloha Got Soul, Bong flipped that blog a collection of mixed tapes, reviews, and stories about underground artists and out-of-print music into a record label in 2015. Today, Aloha Got Soul curates a library of eclectic albums from Hawai i artists that span the genres of vintage, modern, progressive, alternative, island, funk, R&B, and, of course, soul music. He s essentially sharing the music that he s been collecting for years. I always knew that we would have to keep it open to evolution because now we re doing music with new artists, young artists, and even bringing in connections from other parts of the world who have an interest in Hawai i or are inspired by it, Bong says. From relatively unknown to international reach, Aloha Got Soul is giving Hawai i artists new life on the turntable. MEN S NALUKAI SLIP-ON $110 The Nalukai Slip-On has soul.
