The Deep Blue Hawaii VFR Shirt

Climb and maintain an amazing view of the islands.

Flying in Hawaii doesn't feel like flying anywhere else. You depart Honolulu with Diamond Head off the wing, the water goes from turquoise to impossibly deep blue in a few hundred yards, and the next island is already sitting on the horizon. Whether you did the interisland hop in a rented Cessna, flew a tour around Maui, or just watched it all through an airline window, you remember the color of that water.

This shirt is our tribute to it. The VFR sectional chart of the Hawaiian Islands sits in the background, with stunning deep blues soaked through tropical leaves and flowers in our custom fabric pattern. It is quiet on purpose. From across the room it's a stylish, low key camp shirt. Up close, it's a chart, and suddenly you're talking airplanes with a dozen new friends. Depending on your mission, from the flight deck to the pool deck, you could even call it a tactical Hawaiian shirt.

Why pilots love it

• Subtle enough for dinner or the office, real enough for the hangar.
• Lightweight and breathable, so it feels right in island humidity or a summer heat wave at home.
• Wrinkle resistant wash and wear. Pack it, unpack it, wear it.
• It gets softer and more comfortable the more you wash and wear it.
• A classic camp collar and relaxed island cut.

Buying it as a gift?

If your pilot is planning a Hawaii trip, just got back from one, or flew in the islands years ago and still talks about it, this is the one. It's also a smart pick for anyone who prefers their aviation gear understated: student pilots, airline crews, and air traffic controllers all wear this one without feeling like they're in costume.

Made just for you

Every shirt is sewn to order. Our Hawaiian shirts are cut generously, so check the size chart before you pick a size.
