We have a fixed price of $18.00 for up to 5 clothing items. 6 or more items will be a flat rate of $24.00. We use USPS and UPS and again reserve the right to choose which carrier at our discretion. All services provide tracking numbers. Express orders must be received no later than 12:30 pm PST to assure second day arrival. Any order received after that time will be shipped on the next business day. Our express charges do not include Saturday delivery so any order placed after the 12:30 pm on Thursday will be delivered the following Monday. Saturday delivery is available for substantial extra cost. Please call for details. Express service is not available to Hawaii, Alaska or any other location outside of the contiguous 48 states. Larger, heavier and bulkier items are higher yet and can be quoted on an individual basis. You must specify express shipping on the order and by doing so accept the costs incurred for this method.
Free Shipping To APO, AE, AA And FP Addresses
We gladly and proudly accept orders from our overseas military and civilian personnel. Simply choose correct designation in shipping choices at checkout . Fill in your complete billing information and complete APO address. Your order will be shipped via USPS priority mail. Shipping is free as long as we are shipping to a U.S. APO zip code. We will attach any necessary customs forms.
International Shipping
Most international shipments are made by Global International mail. 1-3 clothing items can be shipped most places in the world for a flat rate of $12.00. This service does have a customs tracking number, we use it frequently and it is very reliable. 4 clothing items or more are a flat rate of $20.00. Delivery time via International Priority mail is usually 4-6 days. If a tracking number is requested Global Priority EMS (Express Mail Service) is available for an additional charge of $28.00 - $36.00. See checkout page for the various options available. Delivery is usually 3-5 days. Countries that are not served by either of these two methods are shipped by airmail parcel post. The same fees apply but delivery is slightly longer at 6-10 days. We ship only clothing items internationally. Customs and duty charges are the responsibility of the purchaser. We will make every effort to legally keep this to a minimum by mailing your invoice separate from the package and posting a very reasonable valuation.

Sizing
Our clothing comes from the finest companies in the industry. As with all better quality clothing very strict guidelines are used to produce each piece. Each manufacturer will use the same basic size standards, although there may be a variance of 1/2 inch in the charts shown below. Not all items are available in the sizing charts shown. Please refer to the pull down menu next to each item.
Measurements below are the actual sizes of our clothing and are not the same as your measurements. For best fit, measure a comparable existing item that fits you the way you would want your new item to fit. Lay it flat and compare those measurements with the charts below. When in doubt order the size you are most used to wearing.
Remember, Aloha wear is designed to be worn loose and comfortable .

Care Of Your New Items
Each clothing item will have a care or cleaning tag attached. Read these tags carefully. For best results we recommend cold wash and cool or hang dry. Most silks require dry cleaning by a reputable cleaner. Some silks are hand washable and hang dry. Please consult the care instruction tag attached inside each shirt. For foolproof care, turn to your local professional cleaners. You have an investment, both monetarily and emotionally in your new clothing. When in doubt please call us or refer to your local professional. If you follow these instructions your new items will retain size and color for years to come. We will not be responsible for clothing that is shrunk or otherwise damaged by not following proper care instructions. The only thing that will shrink clothing is heat from either the wash or the drying process.
Fabric Types And Characteristics
Cotton Lawn - A light, fine cloth made using carded or combed linen or cotton yarns in a plain weave. The fabric has a crease-resistant, crisp finish. The name derived from Laon, a city in France, where linen lawn was manufactured extensively. It is light weight, sheer, soft, and washable. It is crispier than voile but not as crisp as organdy. When made with fine high count yarns, it has a silky feel. Comes in white or may be dyed or printed.
Silk – A fiber produced by the silkworm Bombyx mori, also known as the mulberry silkworm, with which the worm weaves its cocoon. One of the finest textiles, silk is soft, has a brilliant sheen, and is very strong and absorbent. A luxurious fabric, silk is lush to the touch and drapes beautifully on the body. It is sensitive to sunlight as well as perspiration and must be carefully laundered. While silk is essentially organic, standards are being developed for organic certification of silk.
Rayon or Viscose - A manufactured fiber of natural composed regenerated cellulose, derived from wood pulp, cotton linters, or other vegetable matter. One of the most peculiar fabrics in use today. Strictly speaking, it is not an artificial fiber, because it is derived from naturally occurring cellulose. It is not, however, a natural fabric, because cellulose requires extensive processing to become rayon. Rayon is usually classified as a manufactured fiber and considered to be “regenerated cellulose”. Rayon is the oldest manufactured fiber, having been in production since the 1880s in France, where it was originally developed as a cheap alternative to silk.
Linen - A fabric made from linen fibers obtained from inside the woody stem of the flax plant. Linen fibers are much stronger and more lustrous than cotton. Linen fabrics are very cool and absorbent, but wrinkle very easily, unless blended with manufactured fibers.
Polyester - A manufactured fiber introduced in the early 1950s, and is second only to cotton in worldwide use. Polyester has high strength (although somewhat lower than nylon), excellent resiliency, and high abrasion resistance. Low absorbency allows the fiber to dry quickly.
Tencel - A trademark of Courtaulds for a high-performance fiber used to make soft, beautifully draping rayon fabrics. It is a strong, easy-care fabric made of cellulose extracted from wood pulp that is harvested from replenished tree farms. It's environmentally sensitive and washable. This elegant eco-fiber is derived using a non-toxic process, which spins it into a buttery-soft machine washable textile, both luxurious and upscale. Tencel is 100% biodegradable, durable, dyeable, and machine washable/dryable. It is elegant and ultra-soft, offering an incredible drape and versatility.
Spooner Kloth - A trademarked Reyn Spooner name for a cotton poyester blend. As described by Reyn Spooner: Introduced by Reyn Spooner® in 1964, this traditional classic has become the oxford cloth of the islands. Combining the cool comfort of combed cotton with the wrinkle free properties of spun polyester, Spooner Kloth™ is guaranteed to give years of wash n wear durability.Due to its unique nature, the slight irregularities in weaving and subtle variations in color that occasionally occur are natural characteristics of this woven fabric. Spooner Kloth™ fabric will continue to develop its personality and improve with age.
Polynosic - Polynosic is a type of microfiber that is a blend of advanced polyester and rayon fibers. Characteristics include luxurious soft touch and excellent drape. Features similar characteristics to cotton and silk, has excellent luster and very little shrinkage.
