Hawaiian Vikings x Forever Wild – Wear the Wild, Save the Wild
An Epic Collaboration of Family, Fashion, and Conservation
Young sisters Valkyrie and Freyja, the creative force behind Hawaiian Vikings, are thrilled and deeply honored to partner with their beloved Uncle Joel and Aunty Chemaine Almquist, founders of the incredible Forever Wild Exotic Animal Sanctuary. This collaboration means the world to them—not only as a family project but as a mission-driven movement to raise awareness and support for exotic animals in need.
Through this powerful partnership, they’ve launched a bold line of graphic t-shirts and hoodies blending fierce exotic animals with ancient artwork from each animal’s native land—from cobras to crocodiles, tigers to jaguars. Each design is more than just a shirt—it's a symbol of strength, survival, and the wild beauty we’re all responsible for protecting.
Forever Wild has been rescuing, rehabilitating, and providing lifelong care to exotic animals since 1995. What started in Uncle Joel and Aunty Chemaine’s hearts has become a nationally recognized sanctuary rooted in compassion, education, and action. Valkyrie and Freyja are incredibly grateful to help carry that legacy forward—one design at a time.
A portion of proceeds from every item sold goes directly to Forever Wild to support animal rescue efforts, medical care, enrichment, and sanctuary upkeep. Every purchase makes an impact.
Located in Phelan, California, Forever Wild opens its gates for visitors to meet these incredible animals in person.
