For the "US15901 Palaka Check Blouse Jacket", Union Supply (Sugar Cane & Co.) draws on an original from its own archives and reproduces it with great attention to detail.

The history of Hawaiian workwear – and thus the origin of the Aloha shirt – begins with the Japanese immigrants who crossed the Pacific and settled in Hawaii. The hard work there demanded robust workwear that differed from traditional Japanese garments.

When Yasuda Kayoji, himself born in Japan, founded the "Union Supply Company" in 1922, he made a name for himself with high-quality, functional workwear. Especially the simple, but hard-wearing blouson jackets made of 10oz heavy Palaka check fabric quickly became standard on the sugar cane and pineapple plantations.
