I'm wearing a bright red aloha shirt today, I don't care it's cold and raining outside. It just puts me in a good mood!

They can be someone’s personal style. Wear if appropriate and if you want to.

It REALLY DEPENDS on the Hawaiian shirt. There are ones that look generic, fake, and cheap. The real ones are made out of a textured cotton that you can only get over there. The higher-end ones are usually more tastefully done, more of an artistic look, often designed by a local designer there, or a company like Tommy Bahama.

Maybe. If and when in the Hawaiian Islands.

We live in Florida and love the aloha shirts. My husband's closet is filled with them. But we prefer certain styles - not the little floral ones, we like the vertical bands of designs or other interesting colorful "picture shirts." Most of them are vintage or semi-vintage, and made in Hawaii. We don't like the cheap knockoffs.

Exactly. The cheap, five dollar special from the souvenir store is going to look just like that, cheap. A nice one from say Tommy Bahama will look sharp and classy (provided you buy the correct fit and have the body for it).

Tony Bahama shirts are NOT Hawaiian shirts.
I don't know if you knew this but Tony Bahama shirts are knock offs of Tommy Bahama shirts.
Italians love them !
