Shirt: Absolutely tremendous orange with white hibiscus, brown flowers and dark brown leaves. Thick, coarse material. Made proudly in NZ by Jay’s Clothing Ltd. The best thing about this shirt was when I ironed on the label #88 it left go a big waft of 1974. A mixture of mould and chemicals that takes you right back to the good old days.
