Journey Short Sleeve Button Up Shirt

I really really wanted to keep this shirt (blaveis), but as is the issue for many of us taller but not wider folk, it suffered from the standardization that happens with larger sizes (they get wider more than they get longer). If there were a tall version of their L or XL sizes, I’d be on it and the other styles I see. But unfortunately, I had to return it. Otherwise, the material was nice and the look was great (except that I looked a bit overgrown in it).

Journey shirts come in many different fabrics, and buying on line always adds to the excitement and anticipation of what to expect. This Blaveis is 100% cotton, and what a thick, soft, plush feeling cotton it is! While I may not be able to make the actual Journey, Roark often has me running to the dictionary looking up these obscure names. Blaveis is a Norwegian flower! Don't see flowers. There are all kinds of other cool things; Celtic Runes? I dunno Fit's true-to-size as usual. I've included a photo. Don't really know what color it is. Deep, deep navy? Black?? Whatever. Really makes those little designs POP!

A reviewer remarked that Roark consistently shows less, rather than more, when displaying their stuff - and I'd have to agree The Pictish print is a great example of that. A whole layer of pale imagery floats beneath the brilliant garden of flowers & snakes. At first glance, I thought I was seeing a bleed-thru from the other side of the fabric, but no! Very clever design, too; laden with detail that sprawls across the entire shirt without repeating itself. Stunning actually I'm a big fan of their jacquard weaves, but this is a truly spectacular print - right up there with Tiger Lotus. And like that shirt, this one's also a luscious cotton/viscose blend with a satiny lustre and supple hand feel. Love this shirt. Feel like a pixie when I put it on!

Pictish was given to me as a gift 2 or so years ago and it is easily my most complimented shirt in my collection. I'm 6'2" 170 and a size L fit perfectly It is nice and lightweight and honestly the photos don't do it justice it's such a beautiful print with so many wonderful small details. I'm tempted to buy a backup now that they're back in stock.

I got this as a gift for my friend and he wears it for nights out and as a fun colorful cookout shirt.

Love the shirt. Large fits great for my 5'10' 200 lbs build. It has a sick vintage look to it. Sunbeam Mosaic 4 LIFE. LOOOVE IT!!!

Love the shirt but it is much smaller that listed size. I will be exchanging it.

Classic Japanese-style print on a soft cotton viscose blend that feels great and drapes beautifully Shirt's tailored like and has a collar similar to the Journey series. One of my favorite Roark summer shirts and I own quite a few of them!

Quality materials, and a really good looking design! Looking forward to see how this shirt ages.

Full disclosure - I love Roark shirts - I probably own 20, mainly the bless up breathable collection which are great for the hot summers. I do love the journey shirts too and I love the design on this!

I really like this shirt and the matching shorts. The fit is good. I wear medium in Roark running gear and this fits casual compared to that. I’m 5’11 175lb right now when actively training 25 miles a week. I went with medium for shirt and shorts just like the running gear and I’m glad I did
