I've been collecting Hawaiian shirts for about 25 years now. As with most of what I collect I probably don't really have a clue. But I know what I like. I've bought shirts for a dollar at a thrift store and I've paid $85.00 for a special order. About 15 years ago my wife made me some homemade shirts, one of a kind, from fabric that I got to pick out. I love those shirts! I did stop wearing my Hawaiian shirts to work about 2 years ago. I guess I didn't realize the reputation I had acquired. I was sort of the computer guy genius that always wore Hawaiian shirts. Well, I had to make a presentation to upper management about a program I was working on. For the presentation I dressed the part, shirt and tie, and when I got to work my boss said, "You're not wearing a Hawaiian shirt! I already made apologies for you to the CEO." Boy I hate being predictable. So, it's been awhile since I showed up at work in my Aloha shirt finery. I'll post some pictures of my favorite shirts and I'd love to see what other people like. This could be a fun thread.
