The phrase “kanak attack” is the feeling of intense laziness you get from eating too much. The plate shown in the photo of the Katsu chicken, Mac salad, 2 scoops of rice, meat with soy sauce and the Hawaiian Style drink is a very popular plate on the island and normally after eating this big of a meal people feel so tired and lethargic they they just want to knock out. Which is why the shirt says “Home of the kanak attack”.
- Why is Pidgin/Hawaiian being used here?:
Pidgin is being used here because it is an entertaining way to make a shirt. By wearing this shirt, it would show that you’re a proud local since Pidgin is like a signature in Hawai’i and so is the food shown.

KA : Hapa is Hawaiian meaning half. Its use here is as a brand name, perhaps because the makers of the product are hapa perhaps because that's their name. Whatever the case, using a Hawaiian word for your brand makes it more appealing to locals who prefer to support local products. Domain is retail.
