Hawaiian Shirt

A new interpretation of the Hawaiian shirt

If you're nostalgic for floral shirts and the 1980s Miami vibe, this product is for you. Our Hawaiian shirts combine floral patterns with elements inspired by historical events, weapons, and military specializations.

Hawaiian shirts are known for their loose fit and short sleeves. We've added some functional details to the classic design: a loop for your sunglasses, an integrated glasses cleaning cloth in the corner, and a hidden zippered pocket. Our Hawaiian shirts are made from a high-quality cotton blend with 97% cotton and 3% elastane – soft, breathable, and slightly elastic for even greater wearing comfort.

A colorful fabric with history

Our Hawaiian shirt is a tribute to the 1930s and 1940s, when striking, colorful patterns first appeared on shirts in Hawaii. These designs captured the feeling of relaxation and surfing on the island's dreamy beaches. After World War II, these shirts became even more popular among returning soldiers who had been stationed in the Pacific.

Patterns with History

Cassino
This pattern pays tribute to one of the toughest battles involving Polish participation in World War II – the Battle of Monte Cassino. At first glance, red poppies, a symbol of this event, are clearly visible, immortalized by a famous soldier's song.

On closer inspection, the "Cassino" pattern reveals numerous allusions to this historic battle:

A trumpeter depicts Emil Czech (trumpeter of the 2nd Polish Corps under General Władysław Anders) playing the Hejnał Mariacki.
Behind him, a Polish soldier charges the enemy with a bayonet.

Weapons used in Monte Cassino are also embedded in the poppy motif:

Sten submachine gun
Lee-Enfield rifle
Thompson M1A1 submachine gun

Pacific
This shirt will make you feel like Tim Roth in Pulp Fiction or Don Johnson in Miami Vice. The bright, cheerful colors are reminiscent of films and series about beautiful people, sunny beaches, and fast-paced action – iconic works that have thrilled generations and now enjoy cult status.

However, the blue tones of this pattern are actually inspired by special operations on the water. On closer inspection, a fast RIB (Rigid Inflatable Boat) full of special forces can be seen in the waves. Elsewhere, armed divers emerge on the shore, and a helicopter hovers above the water for evacuation. These scenes are reminiscent of action films or documentaries about Navy SEALs.

Dark Ops
The subdued, dark colors are inspired by tactical night operations – so-called "Black Ops" or CQB (Close Quarters Battle). Despite the black and gray tones, typical weapon silhouettes can be recognized on closer inspection:

MK18 carbine with suppressor and laser sight
Assault handgun with flashlight and reflex sight
Flashbang grenades

Brushstroke
The Rhodesian Bush War (1964–1979) in Zimbabwe had a lasting impact on modern equipment and camouflage patterns. The design of this shirt is inspired by this historical era and features the so-called "Rhodesian Brushstroke" camouflage pattern, which served to visually break up a soldier's outline.

The pattern consists of large, contrasting brown and green patches on a sand-colored background. Weapons used in operations in former Rhodesia can also be recognized in the shapes:

the globally known AK-47 assault rifle
RPK carbine with 40-round magazine
FN FAL rifle
