Sun Surf SS39285 COTTON × LINEN OPEN SHIRT "ISLAND PINEAPPLE"

This is the 2024 model "ISLAND PINEAPPLE" from Sun Surf, a brand that revives many vintage aloha shirts.
Sun Surf is a long-established brand of aloha shirts that has gained sympathy for its craftsmanship that focuses on fabrics, sewing techniques, and other processes up to completion by analyzing its vast collection of vintage aloha shirts.
While the main lineup is made of rayon, this model is made of a cotton/hemp blend, and the silhouette is finished a little more neatly.
The aloha shirt had established an unshakable position as a gift item in Hawaii at that time when it was crowded with tourists mainly from the U.S. mainland.
Among the many motifs that existed as shirt designs, the aloha shirt with the pineapple motif, which should be called the symbol of Hawaii, boasts standard popularity and is available in many varieties.
The Island Pineapple is a timeless classic that continues to be popular with collectors.

The fabric is a cotton-linen blend.
It is a slub yarn material woven with slub yarns that have irregular knots, and the print gives the reverse side a unique frayed feel.
By using the reverse side as the surface (using the reverse side), it is characterized by its elegant appearance with a slightly subdued coloring compared to the surface.
The linen content also makes it smooth to the touch and highly breathable, so it can be worn comfortably even in the summer when it is sweaty.

The neck has an open collar, which is standard for aloha shirts, but it is possible to close the top button under the collar according to your style.
The back of the neck has an original Sun Surf design name attached.

The pattern of the chest pocket and the body of the garment is matched, creating a sense of unity in the design.
The pattern matching requires high sewing skill and a large amount of fabric, so it is made with care and luxury, and you can feel the care that only a long-established replica Aloha company can provide.
Coconut buttons are used for the buttons, and the natural look goes well with the cotton linen material.

The shoulder yokes are pleated in two places to reduce the feeling of tightness when moving around the shoulders.
The hem is boxy and cut in a straight line, creating a well-balanced silhouette as a single piece of clothing.
