Step into a vibrant tropical escape with this rare Kona Coast vintage shirt, crafted in Hawaii by Malihini Sportswear. A rich red background sets the stage for a bold, high-contrast scenic print featuring iconic Polynesian imagery and destinations like Honolulu, Fiji, Tahiti, and Noumea. These saturated motifs pop in deep navy, forest green, sunflower yellow, and ivory white—evoking a kinetic energy unique to the mid-century Aloha aesthetic.
The fabric is a thick and durable 50/50 rayon-polyester blend, providing an ideal drape with just enough structure. A classic camp collar and welt pocket complete the silhouette, while mother-of-pearl-style plastic buttons add a touch of vintage polish. The pocket is slightly misaligned—a charming quirk often seen in hand-cut originals of the period.
Fit-wise, the shirt reads as a true modern Large, offering generous width and a straight cut. The garment is in excellent pre-owned condition with no stains or damage—an exceptionally preserved piece.
Don’t miss your chance to own this highly collectible mid-century Honolulu souvenir shirt—an archive-worthy example of Hawaiian textile artistry at its boldest.
