Who knows this shirt?

Pages: 1 9 replies

Aloha!

Some months ago I found an Aloha shirt online (via eBay) which really caught my interest. However, the size was too small and didn't buy it (and the auction is gone since long). But I think of this wonderful shirt really everyday since and would like to see if someone maybe can recognize it by these clues below.

This is what (I think) I remember:
The fabric is mostly Orange with some quite large robust patters filled in white black and white.
A vertical stripe runs over the chest with brown Ku-Tikis filled with white background. The width of the stripe (and length of the Tikis) is about 5.5 inches (14 cm).
I didn't see the brand tag in the photos but it looks like a late 60's or early 70s shirt.

I would be really thankful and impressed if someone knows a bit more in this matter. I've gone through thousands of eBay auctions now and can't find it no more but it's still on my mind every day :)

Mahalo! / Mattias

Mattias! I don't think that anyone will respond to a VERBAL description of something as purely visual as a Hawaiian shirt...no photo, no dice.

Did it have 5 buttons or 6?

You're probably very right, Sven! I also thought so. Although I optimistically hoping that someone happens to prove us wrong :wink: Haha...
More sleepless night to come... :)

Haha.. Can't remember. But if the other descriptions match, I'm eager to hear :)
