Palaka
Palaka shirts have a long history in Hawaii, dating back to the 19th century when they were worn by Hawaiian plantation workers. The shirts were made from sturdy cotton or rayon fabric and featured a plaid or checkered pattern. The shirt's design was influenced by the Scottish and Irish immigrants who also worked on the plantations, who brought with them the traditional plaid shirts they wore in their home countries.
During the 20th century, Palaka shirts became popular among Hawaiian locals and tourists alike, and it was worn as a symbol of Hawaiian culture and style. The shirt was worn in different occasions, as a working shirt, as a casual wear, and even as a formal wear.
In the 1960s, palaka shirts saw a resurgence of popularity, as they were adopted by surfers and beachgoers. Today, the palaka shirt is still a popular item of clothing in Hawaii and is often worn as a symbol of Hawaiian heritage and culture.
