Channeling the cool confidence of West Coast vintage with island flair, this Joel California short-sleeve shirt from the 1970s stands out with its unexpected blend of crisp florals and structured stripes. Made in Singapore during a period when international garment production was still novel, this piece carries both global and local appeal.
The shirt’s pattern cleverly juxtaposes soft white hibiscus clusters against vertical pinstripe blocks in muted burgundy, navy, sky blue, and sand. The alternating floral and stripe motifs feel simultaneously tailored and tropical - a bold visual rhythm that captures the eccentric precision of mid-century design.
Crafted from 100% polyester with a silky, wrinkle-resistant finish, this shirt holds its structure beautifully. A rare two-piece collar features removable collar stays - more commonly found in dress shirts - elevating this piece well above the average aloha fare. The single patch pocket aligns close to the chest stripes but remains slightly off-pattern, a subtle nod to its hand-cut heritage.
Flat-lay measurements:
- Chest: 23 in
- Bottom: 23.5 in
- Length: 29.5 in
Condition is excellent with no notable flaws. The sheen and vibrancy of the print remain intact, and all buttons are original and secure.
Whether you're a vintage collector chasing rare Singapore-tagged production or simply want a crisp floral that doubles as streetwear, this Joel is a head-turner.
Don’t miss your chance to own this rare California-meets-Southeast-Asia fusion.
