Collecting vintage hawaiian shirts
Why a squidoo on vintage hawaiian shirts?
I use to have a small spot on my Vintage t-shirts lens for hawaiian shirts. But I really think they deserve their own little lens, so here we are!-
Vintage t-shirts
-
Ebay is one of the best source for vintage clothes. I am addicted to vintage t-shirt, so should you! They are soft and cuddly!! But BEWARE, some bad sellers use VINTAGE as key words and will try to rip you by selling you reproduction. Shop with care....
Tacky?
Pick of the week
VINTAGE 40s DUKE KAHANAMOKU CHAMPION HAWAIIAN SHIRT NR
Engineered border hawaiian shirt in very good condition
100% RAYON ---Mens
This is an outstanding example of an early Duke Kahanamoku Champion by Cisco original Hawaiian shirt with a border motif. The climbing floral vine graphic runs symetrically along the hem and up the front and back with a perfectly matching pocket and corresponding matching collar. The graphics are clean and vivid on a yellow background. Overall the shirt is in very good condition, with small fraying on back of collar, minor fray on shoulder and stress at one button; all shown in photos. All buttons are original MOP (mother of pearl) and in good shape. The shirt is labeled XL but I do not believe it is that large.

I rarely wear any other shirts than Hawaiians (not usually vintage, though...). Cool lens.
