A warm-toned tribute to the golden age of aloha, this 1960s Jantzen shirt blends mid-century construction with rich Polynesian motifs. Hand-painted style hibiscus blossoms, geometric tapa forms, and crosshatch texturing flow across the surface in shades of umber, ochre, coffee, and burnt sienna. The palette evokes sun-warmed wood and volcanic soil—timeless, grounded, and unmistakably vintage.
Cut from soft, breathable cotton, this USA-made piece features an off-centered print layout that enhances its handmade feel. A sharply structured camp collar, single patch pocket, and brown plastic buttons retain the original silhouette. The pocket is unaligned, highlighting the shirt’s organic, freeform character.
Jantzen—best known for its swimwear—produced only a limited number of aloha shirts, making this a rare crossover piece for both surfwear and aloha collectors. Its single-stitch construction, soft patina, and classic Hawaiian graphic style mark it as an exceptional survivor from the era.
In excellent pre-owned condition, with minimal visible wear. An archive-worthy addition for serious collectors or those building a wardrobe rooted in classic island history.
