    Hawaiian Shirts - Aloha Shirts

    Roger wilco Dale. I even have 2 different Hawaiian rums on hand ;) No button loop collar, just an optical illusion. Has a normal top button which I really don't get.

    Hawaiian Shirts - Aloha Shirts

    Thanks bl@ster, I'd pretty much conceded I'd never find a vintage shirt in my size let alone one I liked too. If anything, it's pretty roomy but rather have that than too tight. Gives me some more room to "grow" into it ;)

    Thanks for the compliments fellas, Keith gets all the credit here though. I just followed the old advice: "It doesn't hurt to ask." Keith, I got to wear the blue one today and expect I'll get a few more chances before the temps start to climb up here in the northern hemisphere. Tip of the cap...

    Got a long awaited package from Australia today. It made me happy. Inside was this terrific early Lo Bue dandy that I traded Keith for. Lucky for me, we have the same size head :) This is my new favorite cap: Also inside, one of Keith's more recent works, this green dandy that I purchased...
