Reyn Spooner 50th Golden Anniversary Limited Edition Sailboats Reverse Print Aloha Hawaiian Shirt M
Retired and no longer available, this is a clean, very lightly worn pre-owned 100% cotton Special Limited Edition Golden Anniversary Issue Hawaiian shirt made by Reyn Spooner in a colorful sailboat reverse print in size Medium.  The shirt is from Reyn Spooner's Hawaiian Traditionals collection and was issued for Reyn Spooner's 50th Anniversary in 2006.  This is a great print on a shirt that features all the details Reyn Spooner wearers appreciate, side vents, matching prints, pearlized buttons, and quality materials.
Reyn Spooner's signature reverse print construction (or what the locals call the inside-out shirt) dates back to the early 60’s with an enterprising surfer/bartender named Pat Dorian who was selling his own line of alohawear while he served drinks.  He would pull out a box of shirts to show whenever a customer complimented on what he was wearing.  In time, he tried to convince Tom Andersen, the assistant manager at Reyn’s to carry his creations by offering Reyn a customized shirt.  Since Andersen wasn’t keen on the bright patterns, they discussed muting the print by turning it inside out.  Dorian made good on that idea, and presented Reyn and Andersen with samples that both of them loved.
Reyn then added his own magic by scouring the globe to find textile artisans who can ink through the fabric with just the right finesse to achieve his ideal of the perfect sun-kissed look.  The result allowed Reyn Spooner to effectively market Aloha shirts to Hawaii businessmen and tourists alike.  The loud and poorly constructed Hawaiian shirts made out of muumuu fabric were reimagined and a classic style was born.
