Hawaiian shirts!

Cool pics.

Most of my shirts are hawaiian shirts, they were the only clothing I wanted to buy before I got the cilt fever.

The only comment I have is Aloha shirts just ain't right tucked in.

Maybe so, but unless its really hot and you're going for really casual, I think they look much worse untucked, when worn with a kilt.

I too have a small selection of Hawaiian/Aloha shirts that I wear with my UKs. Wore one today that matched great with my Postal Blue Mocker, and still had matching tones when I changed into the Basil/Sage Survival.

However, its the couple small patterned silk shirts I have that get me the most positive comments on my attire.

I'm with Archangel, someone somewhere (You Archangel??) showed me the open Hawaiian shirt over t-shirt look.

Here are a few from earlier in the spring when it was still cool enough to wear kilt hose. Now wear this look with sandals for knocking around, or with the $6.00 SportKilt "kilt hose/soccer sox" pushed down. Guess I need some pics of that.

I'm a Hawaiian shirt junkie too and have about 40. Gonna find a way to wear them with kilts and this works best for me. Easy Ham....easy...its the colonies....

Okay, this was really pushing it for Mardi Gras...Aloha shirt, Tye Dye, and kilt. Maybe for that don't do this list??

Another theme, a Route 66 Aloha shirt with a Route 66 t-shirt and black UK Workman's

A hot green look with the Aloha shirt, t-shirt and basil UK survival II without the cargo pockets which gives it a mocker-like look.

Or pushing the envelope with a Western look, a blanket jacket with t-shirt and UK blue denim kilt.

Ain't it fun to play with the fringes of fashion??!!

Poking around my gallery realize I need to take some spring pictures...someday.

keep havin' fun!

Keep on Kilt'n'

Great set of pictures. Must have taken you an age to change that many times! I think you demonstrate very well the versatility of a plain kilt. I've got a lot of striped shirts which just don't go well with my tratan kilts. Must get a plain one.

Thanks

And with Hawaiian shirts, who notices the kilt! Usually the kilt is noticed and not the shirt. Maybe because I was in Hawaii for two years, I think they look great with a kilt.

DALE.

I have been known to wear a tropical print shirt or two myself, and yes with my black uk workman. (Of course I have also been known to wear it with urban camo BDUs, not my best idea). But I have run into the problem of tucked or untucked. I feel like the shirt screams to be untucked (that might have something to do the with the strain from the beer barrel) and the kilt bellows for it to be tucked.... So mostly I stick to Ts with my kilt and Hawaiians when I wear pants.

Nope. For a while last winter I just took a pic of what I was wearing to work each day. Pics were shot on different days.

I have to say I like the Hawaiian shirt with the Uks.

Nice pics KCW and Ron.

Ron, where did you get that turtle shirt?
I really like it and would love to find one.

Cheers,

While I know that some shirts are tailored to be worn untucked, I have always worn all my shirts tucked in. Just feels and looks right to me. About the only time I am in an untucked shirt is if I am walking to the pool in a swimsuit and tank top, or sitting aroun dthe house in shorts and tank top.
