Build For
Own.
Own.
It all starts with research and development of fabrics and fibers, and our team is dedicated to exploring natural, eco-friendly fabrics and constantly innovating and incorporating them, culminating in three fabrics that have been crafted into our favorite Aloha Shirts.
During the market research stage, we bought some men's printed shirts from some fast fashion websites, but to our disappointment, all the shirts we bought were made of polyester fiber, whether it was the plastic texture or the strong chemical smell. It makes us full of regrets about printed shirts. In our impression, Aloha shirts represent an optimistic attitude towards life and spirit, rather than these disposable fast fashion products that can only go through one cycle in the washing machine.
So we decided to use our expertise and love to create Aloha shirts with comfortable, skin-friendly fabrics.But we realize that not everything can be perfect. Due to strict quality requirements and production scale limitations, we can only produce in small batches to ensure that each shirt is impeccable. Quality over quantity, always. If you find our website, please believe that we will not let you down.
All our shirts are made from cotton, natural linen, and Tencel™ fabrics and do not contain any chemical synthetic fibers. Here is an overview of the materials that make up all the shirts we offer:
Cotton is a natural renewable resource and biodegradable. Cotton degrades quickly in terrestrial and water environments and will not bring the increasingly serious problem of microplastic pollution to the Earth.
Meanwhile, cotton is a soft, breathable natural fiber that is skin-friendly and non-irritating. It is also very hygroscopic, which means it can absorb large amounts of moisture (water, sweat, etc.) and transfer it to the air without making you feel uncomfortable.
Linen comes from the natural linen plant and is biodegradable. It requires almost no water or pesticides in the production process, requires only sunlight and rain to grow, and can even absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
Linen is breathable and naturally antibacterial, making it the most skin-friendly fabric. It also has anti-wrinkle and anti-friction properties, making it a boon for long-distance travelers and outdoor enthusiasts.
Tencel™ is made from wood fiber. The fibers originate from the renewable raw material wood, created by photosynthesis. The certified biobased fibers are manufactured using an environmentally responsible production process. The fibers are certified as compostable and biodegradable, and thus can fully revert to nature.
Tencel™ has a drapey, lustrous, and silky appearance well-suited to Hawaiian shirts.
It offers all the visual appeal of silk without the drawbacks: it is wrinkle-resistant, breathable, soft, and machine-washable. It's pretty much a dream come true!
Just because our fabrics are great don't mean you can treat them roughly. Don't worry, if you follow our fabric care guidelines, you and your new clothes will enjoy a long and beautiful life together. After all, our mission is to build you a product that lasts.
Innovation can be a challenging process. One solution to save time is to use 100% cotton, 100% linen, or 100% Tencel™ individually, instead of combining them in various proportions. However, each fabric type has its drawbacks: pure cotton wrinkles easily shrink and feel stiff. Linen fabric feels coarse and requires multiple washes to soften the rough fibers. On the other hand, Tencel™ fabric is expensive. We aim to offer you an Aloha shirt that is gentle, cozy, flowing, resistant to creases, and within a reasonable price range. At the same time, it is a perfect fabric that uses entirely natural fibers and is completely sustainable and biodegradable.
For example, we all know that the advantage of a pure cotton shirt is that it is skin-friendly and breathable, but it is really easy to wrinkle, and it will inevitably shrink and become hard after many washes... We mixed it during the improvement process Made of 50% Tencel™, its wrinkle resistance and softness are unparalleled, and it perfectly combines all the advantages of pure cotton fabrics.
Our dream came true – a soft, breathable shirt that doesn’t wrinkle!
You may have noticed we make fairly limited runs of our products. It’s not just a gimmick to drive up desire and exclusivity — we produce relatively small amounts of our designs so that we can ensure we’re not using more materials than we need to, keeping our carbon footprint as small as possible.
At the end of the story, we realized that the goal of sustainable development for any clothing brand did not exist from the beginning. Whether it chooses chemical synthetic fibers or natural fibers, it will have an impact on the environment, but we still insist on choosing Use natural fibers because the clothes they produce are of good quality and can degrade when recycled. Frankly, we don’t mind paying a little extra. Natural fibers are far more environmentally friendly than chemical synthetic fibers. We approach our material choices and other sustainability efforts with humility, figuring out how to reduce our negative impact, even if we never do it to perfection.
We want our shirts to not only make you look good but also make you feel good about your contribution to reducing environmental impact. We hope that when you wear an Oromen aloha shirt, you wear it with pride, knowing that you are part of a larger story – a story of sustainability, quality, and love for our planet.
We’re working hard on being a sustainable menswear company, but we’re still learning. We’ve not been shouting everything you’ve just read from the rooftops because we’d prefer to walk the walk than talk the talk on these kinds of issues. We’re completely open to any suggestions to help make us a greener company, so genuinely please get in touch if you have any ideas that might help us to achieve that goal — we’d love to hear from you at support@oromen.com
