Ka Lā ʻŌnohi Mai O Haʻehaʻe (Kāne)

[@BMahinalaniM808]

Hula Halau Ka La ʻOnohi Mai O Haʻehaʻe has chosen “Kumukahi” composed by my tutu Grace McBride & Mrs J Kaua for their hula ʻauana ♥️

Beautiful culture, may I ask why they wear pants under the traditional attire?

As this is hula 'auana, a more modern form type of hula (younger than 150 years), the clothing style does not have to be traditional. If you watch the hula kahiko you will see more traditional outfits.
