Surf del rey

Crafted from our signature cotton broadcloth, King’s Surf is a heritage 1940s print from the Kahala archive. The art is done in a playful chop suey style—a hallmark of aloha wear prints from this era—featuring various surf and ocean motifs interwoven with text. The vintage-inspired button-down collar, French front placket, and coconut buttons pay homage to traditional aloha shirt silhouettes, with a matched pocket adding a classic touch.  The bold, saturated colors are achieved with discharge printing, a complex process that involves extracting dye from fabric to reveal a motif. Proudly made in Hawai‘i, King’s Surf embodies true the Ambassador of Aloha in every stitch.
