Hilo Hattie's is hurting big time. They filed for chapter 11 back in October, and laid off a number of employees in December. I remember seeing that they may be closing a number of stores. Once they open their new store here in the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center in Waikiki, they will be closing their flagship store on Nimitz, down by the airport. Basically, they are putting all their money into the new store and hoping it will save them.

I bet their website is not actually "under construction", but most likely just shut down for a while.

Not sure if that's such a great idea....
