I am an aficionado of loud, tacky looking Aloha shirts, after all making and collecting hot looking shirts is what I do for a living. The louder and brighter and tacky the better I say!
Unfortunately not everyone sees the world as I do. So Wave Shoppe has slowly caved to the pressure and started putting out really muted, toned down Aloha shirts for sale online.
The brown tattoo aloha shirt pictured on the left is the poster child for muted. Its actually printed this way and is in no way a reverse print. For those that dont know what a reverse print shirt is: Its a shirt that is literally sewn with the fabric inside out with the design facing inward).
While some may like that look its a little self defeating to take something colorful and hide it from sight. Fabrics that are actually printed with subtle designs and neutral colors are the way to go. Plus no one will be asking why your wearing your shirt inside out.
This particular Aloha shirt is pretty nice, it contains blues, golds and browns and even has a shirt pocket that is perfectly matched to the shirts design.
