Joe Kealoha's 1980s Rayon Aloha Shirt – Hula Girl & Pineapple Postcard Print (XL)

This vintage 1980s Joe Kealoha’s aloha shirt bursts with nostalgic island imagery - like flipping through a sun-faded postcard rack on a lazy afternoon in old Waikiki. The shirt features an explosion of Hawaiian iconography: hula dancers, rainbows, tropical fruit, pineapples, plumeria blossoms, and hand-illustrated postcard frames that capture a bygone era of paradise.

Cut from soft, breathable rayon with a flowing drape, the shirt maintains a bold presence in rich navy blue accented with sunny gold, tropical green, and soft coral-orange. The postcard motifs are set on a diagonal tilt that adds energy and movement. A true standout: the print-matched patch pocket, a rare alignment detail for a shirt from this period.

Finished with authentic coconut shell buttons and a breezy camp collar, this piece hails from Joe Kealoha’s - known for its flamboyant, collectible prints and limited-run production. The tag identifies it as made in Korea during the 1980s, likely for the Hawaii tourism boom when style and souvenir culture collided in unforgettable ways.

Flat-lay measurements suggest an approximate XL fit:

- Chest: 24"

- Bottom: 23"

- Length: 29"

Fabric is in excellent vintage condition - vivid colors, minimal wear, no visible flaws.

Whether you're a collector hunting for rare 80s prints or just someone who knows a wearable piece of art when they see it, this Joe Kealoha’s gem is a conversation starter.

Don’t miss your chance to own this one-of-a-kind piece of aloha history.
