The Chesapeake Bay Blue Tropics Aloha Shirt

Every inlet, every point, every creek.

Flying the Chesapeake is a lesson in shorelines. From altitude it's a maze of necks, points, rivers and islands, water off both wings, and a sky that goes from big city busy to sleepy and quiet in a few minutes of flying. Pilots who fly it learn the bay by its shape.

Inspired by one of our aviator friends, this aloha shirt takes the real sectional chart of the Chesapeake region and sets it into a cool blue tropical print. From Baltimore to Norfolk, the bay touches a lot of states and a lot of logbooks. From across the dock it's an easy blue Hawaiian shirt. Up close, bay pilots start tracing the shoreline and looking for their own home strip.

Why bay pilots love it

• Ultra lightweight and breathable for a humid Maryland summer.
• Wrinkle resistant wash and wear, ready for a weekend fly-out to the Eastern Shore.
• Relaxed camp collar and an easy, loose fit.
• Gets softer and more comfortable every time you wash and wear it.
• Blue on blue, like the bay on a clear morning.

Buying it as a gift?

For the pilot who plans every weekend around a hundred dollar crab cake, or the sailor turned aviator who knows the bay from both the water and the air. It's a Maryland and Virginia gift that's actually about them.
