The Bless Up: Roark’s premier performance button-up. Featuring a micro-perforated, 4-way stretch fabric for maximum airflow and moisture-wicking. Built for the trails and the pub. Stay cool, dry, and sharp in the North Okanagan heat. Read more.
The Bless Up is the shirt our staff reaches for when the Okanagan heat hits 35°C. It’s built from a proprietary micro-perforated fabric that acts like a personal air-conditioning unit. This isn't just a "beach shirt"—it’s a technical powerhouse designed to wick sweat and dry almost instantly, making it the perfect choice for a paddleboard session on Kal Lake or a dusty mountain bike lap.
What makes the Bless Up an Attridge favorite is the 4-way stretch. Most button-ups feel restrictive the second you move; this one moves with you. It’s tough enough for the backcountry but styled with a clean, classic fit that won't look out of place at a summer wedding or a backyard BBQ.
Mechanical Airflow: The micro-perforated construction allows heat to escape while letting the breeze in, keeping you significantly cooler than a standard cotton shirt.
The Fabric: A high-performance blend of Recycled Polyester and Spandex. It’s incredibly lightweight, wrinkle-resistant (perfect for travel), and features a quick-dry finish.
Vernon Versatility: It’s the "One Shirt" solution. You can wear it on a 10km trail run and—if you aren't too dusty—head straight to dinner without looking like you just came from the gym.
Fit: Classic / Relaxed Performance Fit
Fabric: Perforated 4-Way Stretch (90% Recycled Polyester / 10% Spandex)

Heat Management: In the North Okanagan, breathability isn't a luxury—it's a necessity. The Bless Up is the best-performing summer shirt we carry.
Staff Approved: Our crew loves these because they don't show sweat marks and they stay smelling fresher longer than cheap synthetics.
Travel Ready: Since it doesn't wrinkle, it's the first thing we tell customers to pack for a surf trip or a weekend camping at Sugar Lake.
