"BLESSING GIFT FROM HAWAII"
"This popular design features a border pattern featuring Hawaiian symbols like the lei, ukulele, and hibiscus. These motifs, frequently used on aloha shirts, are complemented by a six-color discharge dyeing technique. The design is also highly refined, with the balance of the size and layout of the patterns perfectly balanced. It's highly sought-after by collectors and has been featured in books on vintage aloha shirts."
The classic open collar of an aloha shirt creates a relaxed, refreshing look.
You can also change the style by fastening the loop on the small top button located below the collar.
The back of the neck features an original Sunsurf design.
The buttons are urea buttons, made from a kneaded resin, which were used not only on aloha shirts but also on various casual wear of the time.
Urea buttons are dyed at the raw material stage rather than painted on, which means they are less prone to scratches and can be matched to the colors of the fabric and design.
The chest pocket is pattern-matched to the body, creating a unified look for the entire design.
Matching patterns requires advanced sewing techniques and a large amount of fabric, resulting in a meticulous, luxurious construction that reflects the attention to detail you'd expect from a long-established replica aloha manufacturer.
The shoulders, which are prone to stress when worn, are strengthened with a yoke design that adds an extra layer of fabric.
Two pleats on the back reduce tightness when moving around the shoulders.
The hem is cut in a straight line, creating a boxy silhouette that is well-balanced when worn alone.
The fabric is made of filament rayon, known for its high heat dissipation properties and luster.
The cool drape and flowing look when worn in the breeze make it a classic material that many people associate with aloha shirts.
As it is based on a vintage aloha shirt, the sizing is slightly loose.
If you want a more streamlined fit, many people choose one size down from their usual size.
