Beach Culture T-Shirts

Surfs up! Jokers under!

Arnold's Beach Bar bills itself as "Waikiki's last tiki bar." I have no idea if that's true or not, but I do know that it's a genuine dive bar that's been around for decades and this design's vintage treatment makes it a look you picked it up back in the 80s.

The Islander, was a Hawaiian style, Tiki bar & restaurant in West Hollywood, Los Angeles. Famed for it’s mid-century modern A-frame architecture, bridge entry & flaming torches. Unfortunately this slice of Polynesian Style & 1960s Americana was demolished in the 1980s. But you can still celebrate it with this T-Shirt from ryte TRACK.

Food Served Till Midnight

Honestly I've had this idea floating around in my head longer than I can remember... Gotta love those ex president masks from Point Break.

The Tiki has had a greater influence on the modern art world than many realize. The 20th century saw a rise in American’s fascination with the Pacific Islands and their native culture. Images of the traditional life of native islanders captivated the residents of the Continental U.S. and brought about a desire to fill their mundane environment with some of the iconography of the islands. Post World War II returning GI’s brought back images of the Pacific Islands and the fascination with Tiki emerged. By the 1960s Tiki could be seen everywhere. It adorned buildings, restaurants, motels and all manner of advertising. Exports of authentic Tiki could not keep up with the demand.

Stephen Crane (a.k.a. Steve Crane, Steven Crane) started out as bit actor in Hollywood in the 30's and became better known for being one of Lana Turner's ex-husbands than for any of his roles. Realizing his limited acting skills, Steve Crane turned his charm and energies to the restaurant business and in 1953 bought out 'The Tropics' in Beverly Hills. Taking his cue from Trader Vic's and Don the Beachcomber, Steve created his own Polynesian themed restaurant 'The Luau'. The restaurant quickly became a hit and a 'must see' Hollywood celebrity hot spot. Eventually Steve Crane would be approached by Sheraton to create a Polynesian themed restaurant for the hotels to compete with Hilton and their association with Trader Vic's.

Digital design inspired by Polynesian art, tiki gods and the designs you see on ceramic tiles adorning patios or bathrooms.
