More Hawaiian

Nothing like a Hawaiian back drop to put you in the mood....another of my Hawaiian shirts. Had this one since the early '90's....

And those Hawaiian shirts GHT are fabulous!

GHT I noticed you have what appears to be a very nice watch on, what kind is it?

My daily beater (Resistol Conversion) and sportin' my 1936 Silk Chapman's. Perfect day for it. The Heat Index because of the humidity is atrocious....

The company I work for is very cool in regards to our work attire. All the better for me to wear my Hawaiian shirt there, so here's a photo of me today. The hat is a genuine low-grade panama blocked in Italy (cost about €130), one that I am fond of, despite its quality. It's one of those hats that you feel they fit just perfect on you, you know?

(obviously, I don't have the hat on while indoors)

Nice one, James! I wear my lid rudely indoors as well. Especially in my studio. Can't "think" without it. Thinking cap....heh

Today's Aloha/Fed combo is, of course, my daily Resistol Conversion Beater and a vintage Korean Rayon Aloha from the early 60's that hangs nice and loose and is very drafty and cool.

This shirt should reallly go to a Lounger who owns a Stratoliner hat. It's a leeeetle bit pricey, tho. But still.

Oh, that's a beauty and I wholeheartedly concur. That's begging for a Stratoliner with it's matching hat pin. Sweet. =)

I dig both the hat and the shirt Redwoodjedi; a great combo! To be honest, while I'd like to wear my panama indoors, it tends to make me sweat... quite a bit. I do however like wearing a hat when playing/creating music, with or without an audience. You're right; it's as if the brain can't function hat well without.

Great post guys, the spirit is obvious.

Matt, I'm jealous already; can't wait for my leave on August.
Johnny, that's a great combo, the colours really blend nicely together.

Summer hit with a vengeance yesterday so time to break out the shirts. Kahala with PB Cuenca pimped by BSHW for breakfast out this morning. Only wish the backdrop was tropical.

The backdrop is at least very nicely manicured, Mike! MUCH better than I could ever do with our vegetation.

johnnycanuck, Happy Canada Day to you too! I miss those days of visiting my grandparents, going out on the Atlantic near Peggy's Cove at the crack of dawn to purchase lobsters from the returning fishermen!

 

[mikespens]

Thanks Jeff, my wife is entirely responsible for the manicure. I occasionally pitch in and pull some weeds but otherwise only responsible for poop patrol.

The sun eventually came out for my Kahala 100% cotton and BHSW Pandora.

 

[ManofKent]

The lilies are a great addition

Now here's a real find. I bought this Hawaiian shirt at a thrift store today for $5 and it's actually made in Hawaii! This is gonna look good with my Panama!...

The tag says Hand Wash or Dry Clean but I put it in my washer using cold water on the "gentle" setting...then I put the shirt in my dryer on low heat for 30 minutes and it came out great!
