Frequently Asked Questions
What is the bird of paradise flower?
The bird of paradise (Strelitzia reginae) is a South African flower named for its resemblance to a tropical bird in flight — vivid orange petals forming the "wings" and deep blue petals forming the "beak." It was introduced to Hawaii and thrives in the islands' climate, becoming one of the most iconic flowers in Hawaiian shirt design and lei-making.
How does #1 differ from the other numbered Bird of Paradise shirts?
The #1 is the original and most classic colorway — the foundational composition with the most naturalistic, balanced presentation of the bloom. The higher numbers (#2, #4, #5) each have distinct colorways, scales, and background treatments. The Watercolor version uses a painterly style. Start with #1 for the definitive Bird of Paradise Hawaiian shirt experience.
Is this made in Hawaii?
Yes! Proudly made in Hawaii, USA by Paradise Found — not an imported imitation.
Does this run true to size?
This shirt runs large. Most people size down one size for a more fitted look, or keep their regular size for the classic loose, relaxed Hawaiian shirt fit.
