Saturated with island nostalgia, this 1980s Dolphin aloha shirt captures a vivid shoreline fantasy—lush with red-orange hibiscus, palm trees, crashing surf, and a yellow-red outrigger canoe set against an earthy brown and golden wave backdrop. The synthetic fabric has a signature silky finish, gliding against the skin with that unmistakable vintage sheen.

Made in the USA by Dolphin under JEM Sportswear Inc. (RN 47295), this shirt exemplifies mid-80s production with its off-center scenic print, coconut-look plastic buttons, and clean single-stitch construction. The patch pocket—while not print-matched—is well-positioned to blend into the busy background.

The overall effect is cinematic, like a still from a sun-drenched surf film, with high-impact color blocking and movement. A standout example of 1980s polyester aloha styling, this shirt wears easily while making a bold impression. In excellent pre-owned condition with no visible flaws.

Highly collectible and rarely offered in this motif and colorway—especially with such crisp execution and California provenance.
