The Hawaiian Shirt also known as the Aloha shirt, is a shirt style first created in the 1930's back in old Hawaii. Hawaiian shirts are made from tropical fabrics in floral, scenic designs depicting life in Hawaii. The Aloha Shirts are typically collared short-sleeve shirts sewn with coconut buttons. Often made with a matching left chest pocket with seams expertly matched creating a continuous Hawaiian design. The tropical shirt style has evolved over the years. Now we can enjoy them in a number of fabrics, island prints & styles.
