I think the aloha shirt is perhaps better worn with a solid color kilt, something like a 5.11 TDK and others. However from the pic above I can see that it might work with tartan if carefully chosen. I do like the camp shirt style, of which the aloha shirt is just a color variation, and have worn solid color camp shirts with a tartan kilt. I think River Kilt has posted pics before of himself wearing untucked aloha shirts at parties.
I have a couple of aloha shirts, one that is special to me because of when and where and how I got it. I may have to experiment with it. Steve Ashton, the Wizard of BC, has written often here that the simplest way to coordinate things when wearing a kilt is to put on matching shirt and hose, or a combination that nearly matches, and then put on any kilt you chose. I suppose if you wore hose close to matching the main color of a Hawaiian shirt the aloha shirt and tartan combination could be pulled off better. The shirt should be tucked in unless your taking part in some very informal activity, like a rowdy party.
My big question now is is it OK to wear a guayabera shirt with a kilt?
