Tahitian Pareu Red White And Blue

Our Tahitian Pareu is a lightweight shirt, tailored to fit with a western snap shirt style. What is a Pareu Shirt? "Pareu" is the Tahitian word for a lightweight printed cotton fabric that was first imported into Polynesia by the French during the early 1800s. During the 1930s, the motifs and colors of the pareu began to influence the prints being used in Hawaii for Aloha shirts. By the 1950s, the pareu print had become a distinct and very popular design style for the Aloha shirt. ~section 2~ ~section 3~ Fabric & Construction Our Cowboy Cloth is lightweight, breathable and quick drying.
