Hawaii Kai shirt

Pages: 1 4 replies

This weekend, I acquired a Hawaii Kai shirt during a vintage clothing sale. I collect Hawaii Kai mugs, but this is the first time I've ever seen a shirt. Only problem is it is too small for my husband and too big for me. Anyone know how valuable the shirt is? I'm just wondering if it is worth keeping and having altered or selling to someone who can actually wear.

Unfortunately I can't help with value, but can you post pictures and let us know the size?

I've got a pretty big Hawaii Kai collection and have been collecting it for maybe 8-10 years. (Above image is a few years old.) I have not seen a shirt, but I recently got a patch!

IMO it's not likely super valuable. I doubt many collect that, as opposed to the Jard mug with the hula girl in the tiki, which is maybe the most sought after Hawaii Kai piece. It's not something you can display on a shelf like a mug or menu or swizzle.

Hawaii Kai is just not highly collected.

I'll like to see the shirt too though.
