The aloha shirts of Wimbledon 2019
The tennis players at Wimbledon are subject to a strict all-white dress code, but the fans are free to choose their own style. I don’t know about you, but when I’m enjoying the serve-and-volleys, I like to sip on a Pimms or three and wear a bold, bright aloha shirt. Today we mark the end of Wimbledon 2019 by looking at some fans who brought the aloha spirit to London.
A veritable tsunami of aloha from these cheeky blokes
This young man in a red aloha shirt with pineapples
Wear it: There is a very similar shirt available from Amazon.
Gentleman in a black shirt with red floral pattern
Wear it: I managed to find a pretty close match at Aloha Funwear.
Superfan in a navy shirt with white and pink floral pattern
Wear it: I couldn’t find a super close match, but shirts in the same vein are available from Aloha Funwear and Avanti Shirts.
Fashionista in a white camp shirt with palm trees and ukulele pattern
Wear it: Not an exact match, but a reasonably close shirt by Pineapple Juice available on Amazon.
Fellow in a navy shirt with white palm trees
Wear it: Closest I could find are these options from Amazon and Proper Cloth.
Disinterested but highly fashionable kid caught reading
Wear it: This was a tough one, long-sleeved aloha shirts are a different beast. I’m ashamed to admit this vertical border shirt from ShakaTime is the closest match I could come up with.
Tennis aficionado in a pale camp shirt
Wear it: Hard to tell exactly what pattern is on this one, but the colors aren’t too far off the beige Pineapple Hut shirt from Avanti.
Front-row man in ‘strawberries and cream’ floral shirt
Wear it: Again, it’s hard to make out the details on this shirt. But Mellow Rose by Avanti looks like it could be a close match.
Distressingly attractive blog author in rayon patterned camp shirt
Wear it: I picked this one up at the New Orleans Jazz Festival. You can get it from Art4Now.
