Niiiice!
Ditto Cuz! Awesome shirt my man! Lookin' good!You're looking fine Eric, I hope you feel as good as you look.
Hey Cuz, nice shirt TJ!
Good afternoon. The high today has been 75'F. Perfect summer weather for wearing a Kamehameha Hawaiian polo shirt and my newly cleaned 50's Stetson Stratoliner.
Cheers, Eric -
Adventurebilt Beaver Fedora and another Tommy Bahama. Damn do I have too many TB hawaiians lol. Granted, I have other kinds as well, but I really do like the silk they make these out of. Adventurebilt feels light as air on my head, which is great for this weather. Too hot and too humid. I love me some hawaiian shirts, but man do I miss the cold months.
Panama and Patagonia hawaiian shirt.
Feeling the islands this afternoon in 73F' temps. Best, Eric -
That's a great look, Lando!

Alex, it was remiss of me to overlook your post with regards to my watch. I do apologise.GHT I noticed you have what appears to be a very nice watch on, what kind is it?
This may help in identifying an authentic Vintage Hawaiian shirt....Design, material, and "Made in Hawaii" are certainly indicators of authenticity...Alex, it was remiss of me to overlook your post with regards to my watch. I do apologise.
There is a Swiss watch maker that makes authentic reproductions, called Stauer. This link will take you to their website.
I particularly like the jewelled movement, as opposed to the modern quartz crystal. That and the fact they are authentically reproduced in every detail. I was impressed that you noticed.
Here's the latest shirt that a regular customer ordered. I know he will love it, he specifically asked if I could find a material with prints of old planes, what's more, the print was a one off, so the chances of his shirt being unique are pretty high.
Here are some of the details: Pattern matching breast pocket.
Horizontal button holes:
We have had, I say we, my wife has had her own designer labels made, I use them too. Most of the input is her's anyway.
"Honey, how do I do so & so?" "Oh you just thread it through like this, and then you......" You get the picture?
Just as an aside. How do you guys define a tropical shirt? By design? By material choice? By being Hawaiian? Do you have any sort of criteria?
