The Grissom Aviator KC-135 Coconut Button Camp Shirt
Let customers speak for us
I was so excited when the team was able to do this small location for me. Having flown there many times, I love how they included the water, the mountains, and some of the islands in addition to the town. So excited to give it to the person I purchased it for. I know they will love it as much as I do.
I am so excited for this specific location as it is where the recipient of the shirt first learned to fly. I honestly didn't think the team would be willing to do a small location like this, but they did and I absolutely love it! Highly recommended.
Big hit with my dad
I learned to fly at Erie County Airport (sadly now a drag strip) and hung out at Moorhead Airpark for a number of year. Looking at the area I used to puddle jump in my 1946 Aeronca Chief brought back a lot of flying memories.
The cut and fit of the shirt is perfect and covered the greater expanse that has developed since my Erie days.
The time from requesting a custom location to first time wearing was very speedy.
Sorry I do not have a picture as yet.
It’s so cool! I also like how light it is.
Instructed at CRP. Back when this chart was used!
I requested a shirt for a specific area and they really came through! Exactly what I wanted. Thank you very much!
Yes we received this shirt. I am so excited to give it to our son. However it is a Christmas gift. So I really can’t write an accurate review til then. I’m looking so forward to giving this I think this will be our BEST GIFT THIS YEAR. Thank You.
I needed a different size so I contacted customer service on a Sunday and they actually answered and helped me out and we’re friendly. It was amazing. The shirts are bright, fun and true size, I simply ordered the wrong
The camp shirt material is soft and silky. The fit is great and as expected. The detail in the design of the shirt is just wonderful. The shirt came in the time frame it was promised. I will definitely order from Pilot Quarters again.
Excellent quality, fit, and fast shipment. What more could you ask for? Highly recommended.
This shirt was a gift for my brother , who’s been a pilot for over 35 years.
He has most of his training for large planes in Columbus Ohio. It fits him well. He said it looks like good quality. It was relatively quick service from order to delivery. I highly recommend this company
My husband is a retired pilot and did a lot of flying in and around Chicago, so this shirt is a nice reminder of those days.
It's not just Maui! I talked to the team about having a shirt with a bit more of the islands on it. They said they wanted to keep it "the right size chart" so that it was a real sectional. When I got the shirt and was flipping it around I noticed PHPA (Port Allen) on the sleeve... well, that's on Kaui and I further looked at the area on the shirt that had Volcanos National Park and Kilauea on it. I am very happy with the shirt because Port Allen was my first flight post Private Pilot Certificate. I was fortunate enough to learn to fly in Hawaii and all around the Islands so this shirt is special. This is a great product. Thank you!
We love the White Mtns, this was a perfect birthday present for my husband who actually wore it a few weeks later for a hike in said mountains. Fit perfect, the company was super communicative and shipping/delivery was faster than anticipated!

Gas station in the sky, Indiana edition.
This coconut button camp shirt is for the brave aviators who flew out of Grissom and served in the Air Refueling Wing. If that was you, you remember the long hours in the track, the boom stretching back toward a receiver holding steady off the tail, and the flat Indiana farmland rolling out under the climb when the mission was done.
Grissom carries the name of Gus Grissom, the Hoosier astronaut, and the base has kept the KC-135 Stratotanker working for decades. This Pilot Quarters design is our salute to the tanker crews, the boom operators, the maintainers, and everyone who kept those jets flying. From across the room it's a bold blue camp shirt. Up close, anyone who served there knows exactly what it means.
Why tanker folks wear it
- Perfect for Hawaiian shirt Fridays, squadron reunions, and the hangar party after the change of command.
- Ultra lightweight and breathable, so it's comfortable long after the sortie would have ended.
- It gets softer and more comfortable every time you wash and wear it.
- Wrinkle resistant wash and wear. No iron required.
- Coconut buttons, a relaxed camp collar, and a print permanently set into the fabric.
Buying it as a gift?
For the retired boom operator, the KC-135 pilot, the crew chief, or the family member who spent years hearing about Grissom at the dinner table. Military aviators can be tough to buy for. A shirt that honors where they served starts the stories every time they wear it.
Made just for you
