Here’s a rare example of early Reminiscence label artistry - likely among their first Hawaiian shirts. Made in the 1970s, this XL rayon standout bursts with oversized tropical blooms in flaming red, golden yellow, and rainforest green, all set against a jet-black canvas. It’s wild, expressive, and meticulously composed.
The off-centered print adds visual rhythm, while an expertly pattern-matched chest pocket virtually disappears into the florals - a detail collectors will appreciate. Crisp single-stitch construction, a traditional spread collar, and real coconut shell buttons confirm the shirt's vintage pedigree. A subtle button loop closure at the collar nods to its island tailoring roots.
Made from soft, breathable rayon, the fabric has a flowy drape and midweight feel - ideal for movement and comfort. This shirt measures 25” pit-to-pit, 30” in length, and 19” across the shoulders, offering a solid true-to-size XL fit. It’s in excellent pre-owned condition with only minor signs of age and one small darkened spot under the collar fold (see final photo).
With similar shirts from this rare brand listed at up to $149 on eBay, this is a unique chance to grab a shirt that blends scarcity with standout design. Whether you’re collecting or wearing, this piece won’t come around again.
