Top 10 Hawaiian Shirt Websites on Page 10 of Google

 Today we are visiting the murky depths of page 10 of Googles search results, yep that place that rarely gets visited by anyone. So today I did a search of the word Hawaiian shirts to see not only where www.waveshoppe.com was listed, but the less fortunate as well.

Top 10 Hawaiian Shirt Websites on Page 10 of Google are as follows:
  1. https://www.golfdigest.com/story/game-improvement-hawaiian-shir "honestly its a awful website, as soon as the website opens they hit you with a full screen video. When you do make it to the article titled "Game improvement: Hawaiian shirts aren't only for luaus" there is a 1 paragraph blurb on how a Hawaiian shirt can improve your golf game. though I believe lots of practice will serve you better.
  2. https://totalfratmove.com/5-hawaiian-shirts-ensure-you-dominate-this-spring/ Titled "5 Hawaiian Shirts That’ll Ensure You Dominate This Spring" this page is one ginormous ad for a Hawaiian shirt retailer, enough said.
  3. https://www.forbes.com/forbes/welcome/?toURL=https://www.forbes.com/sites/katiechang/2016/11/27/how-to-incorporate-the-hawaiian-shirt-the-years-most-surprising-fashion-trend-into-your-wardrobe/&refURL=https://www.google.com/&referrer=https://www.google.com/ another garbage website, first visit hammers you with one giant ad. I can easily see why its buried in the back of the internet.
  4. https://postgradproblems.com/embrace-the-hawaiian-shirt/ Titled "Embrace The Hawaiian Shirt" it appears to be a blog post that rambles on about clothing choices and personal hygiene or something.
  5. http://www.kyifi.com/ site belongs to a Hawaiian shirt wholesaler but it super hard to navigate and doesn't look very user friendly.
  6. http://www.whowhatwear.com/hawaiian-shirt-trend The Next Big Trend Is Already Lurking in Your Parents' Closet its one of those BS fashion blogs that wants you to think their models depict what the future of Hawaiian fashion in going to look like. The reality is that its lip service for their advertisers 
  7. http://www.eonline.com/news/781533/diane-kruger-makes-hawaiian-shirts-look-cool-no-really Diane Kruger Makes Hawaiian Shirts Look Cool—No, Really She has odd looking legs
  8. https://www.heddels.com/2015/05/beginners-guide-hawaiian-shirts/  A Beginner’s Guide To Hawaiian Shirts AKA images of washed up Hollywood actors wearing Hawaiian shirts
  9. https://www.theguardian.com/fashion/2017/jun/29/from-elvis-to-balenciaga-five-ways-to-wear-a-hawaiian-shirt From Elvis to Balenciaga: five ways to wear a Hawaiian shirt Yawn... another site like #8 on my list
  10. http://www.bigkahuna.com/ and I end my painful journey with a competitor website, not sure a link will help them any but its the thought that counts, correct?
If you dared to visit even a few of those websites it becomes clear as to why they are way back on page 10. Personally if our company site ever looked like one of those and we couldn't correct the issues, we would seriously consider pulling the plug on it. IMO Hawaiian themed websites should look as fun as the shirts they sell, not laden with popups and ads.

Men's Hawaiian Threads

This is the time of year that we start a review of sort on the current year clothing line, with he men's Hawaiian shirts section receiving extra scrutiny. This is not done by just one person, the entire staff is asked to reflect and provide their personal input on what Hawaiian shirts designs they think were popular, as well as which ones were not all that hot.

Yes, occasionally we put out a design that simply doesn't move as fast as others. Additionally lower sales doesn't necessarily mean it was a "bad print". Many of my personal favorites never sold in big numbers, beauty may be in the eye of the beholder, but I can say that collectors and Hawaiian shirt addicts certainly knew a good shirt when they saw one

But today's post is not even about those shirts, it's about one of our most popular designs, the brown Hawaiian shirt with sea turtles

Part of the allure is that the coloring in this shirt is easy on the eyes and goes extremely well with khaki colored pants and shorts. While at first glance it my look a little busy, it's the fine detail that drives this one over the top. And then there is the layer of sophistication that airbrushed background, which we started using around 10 years ago, brings to the shirt. 

Keep an eye out for the new men shirts that we are rolling out over the next few months, they are going to look totally awesome! And the new Wave Shoppe Hawaiian Shirts website is now up and running. Please have a look around and remember to like your favorite shirts with the Facebook button that may be found on every product page. Mahalo
