You could try F as in Frank. Your best bet will probably be vintage stores if you're specifically looking for local shops. Otherwise, I'm sure you can get aloha shirts at Old Navy, Winners, etc. TBH, you'll probably not find many outside of the big box stores because our coastal style is very different than what you see in Hawaii.

@crazycanadianloon I tried Winners and Old Navy but they didn’t fit the style. It’s usually a simple pattern on solid cold colors. I wanted complex print on warm/dark.

Ardene had some but the fabric is bad, super thick and not comfortable. Looks (and is) a bit cheap.

I’ll try F as in Frank, thanks for the tip!

This one is kind of wild but it fits your description : https://www.hottopic.com/product/barbie-ken-malibu-woven-button-up/20529242.html 😆

Lots of HT in metro vancouver

@crazycanadianloon It kinda does! I like it though the bright pink is out of my palette (warm autumn), but I'll peruse similar items on that store. Thanks!

Already took a look at F as in Frank online catalog and didn't find much.
