Everybody on this thread, please note that I am quite committed to my next book project, "The LOOK of Tiki", on vintage Tiki, Tapa and 60s/70s "modern" Aloha shirts and wear.
This time, it will not take years after I am done with my upcoming tome "Tiki Modern and the Wild World of Witco" this August, because Martin McIntosh from Outre Gallery is burning to put the shirt book out, and so I plan to have it published by next year. It will be a new cornucopia of Tiki images, garish colors, and abstract modern primitive designs.

It's high time that the apparent loss of talent and knowledge in current Aloha shirt design gets reversed, and the trend to those lame muted color scheme brown/grey/dark green MUSH shirts a la Tommy Bahama gets stopped.

So just keep that in mind, when I am ready I will post the all-around request for j.pegs of your favorite theme wear. Mahalo to all.
