Palaka Nui Blue Kauai Red
A traditional palaka is a two-color plaid, white with blue, brown or red. Palaka Nui ("nui" means large or many) doubles the scale of the plaid and adds a third color. It is printed on Cowboy Cloth instead of yarn-dyed, which lets us play with size and color. This one is blue and Kauai red, on a long sleeve Western snap shirt.
Fabric & Construction
- Cowboy Cloth is our lightweight, cotton-rich blend. As soft as cotton, with the performance of a synthetic. Easy care, quick to dry, breathable and durable. With care it lasts a long time and only improves with wear.
- Small-batch printing. Some styles use the reverse side of the fabric as the face for a softer, sun-faded effect. Reverse prints are a tradition in Aloha shirt-making. We don't carry excess inventory, so a print that sells out may be gone for good, or come back in new colors or scale. This style is printed on the reverse side for a softer face.
