Quote HistoryQuoted: Why do they all seem designed for guys with a 50"+ waist Now a lot of bigger guys only wear stuff like Hawaiian shirts because they're just too damn fat to wear normal shirts over their fat fucking guts but that's not the shirts problem. Be like Thomas Magnum, not Dennis Nedry.   |

Check out “retro-rifle”. Hawaiian shirts with guns in the design. My neighbor around the block is the owner (I think). They have some cool designs.

Quote HistoryQuoted: 100% Rayon The pattern MUST carry across the pocket. Wood or coconut buttons...................... just remember Laundering rayon takes a little extra consideration. Rayon is often blended with other fabrics (such as polyester and cotton), so washing instructions can vary significantly. While its texture and versatility make it an ideal choice for a range of apparel, rayon isn’t a durable fabric, and standard machine washing can cause it to stretch, shrink, or bleed onto other articles of clothing. As a result, most experts recommend hand-washing rayon, but always be sure to check the care label instructions beforehand. I lean toward silk or cotton. |

100% Rayon.
If bought from reputable brands (as the ones listed), the shirts will each wear in different ways. Treat accordingly Diamond Head Sportswear last the longest and retain a nice sheen. Reyn Spooner break in to a softer fabric. |

I've got some old Joe Ke'Aloha shirts I got from my Hawaiian brother in law when his dad died since we were the same size.
I think to get them now you'd have to hunt them up on sites like Poshmark or something, but they are cool. |

Somebody that knows what an authentic Hawaiian shirt is made of. At my last job, we had Hawaiian shirt day. I was the only person there wearing an actual Hawaiian shirt. Everybody else had shirts made of cotton; with a button at the very top, just below the collar. True Hawaiian shirts don't have a button that high. And, as you posted, are made of 100% rayon. And for me, you just can't beat the originals...Paradise Found. They (still) make the ones that Tom Selleck wore on Magnum P.I. |

Hilo Hattie makes up the bulk of my wardrobe, followed by Paradise Found, with a smattering of a couple others.
Beware that the current Hilo Hattie stuff is mostly not made in Hawaii and they are not as high quality (sizes are way off too). I only buy Hawaiian made so pretty much all mine are pre-owned. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: just curious, why 100% rayon? It sort of became the go to material I believe. It’s good for hot weather but doesn’t wrinkle like linen. Don’t quote me on that but my understanding is back when things mattered like quality rayon became the choice for these shirts with silk in there as well. |
