The Bless Up: Roark’s iconic breathable button-up. Built with micro-perforated fabric and 4-way mechanical stretch for the ultimate air-conditioned feel. Moisture-wicking, quick-dry, and wrinkle-resistant. The North Okanagan’s favorite summer shirt. Read more.
The Bless Up is widely considered the "Holy Grail" of summer button-ups. At Attridge, we recommend this to anyone who hates feeling sticky and restricted when the Valley heat kicks in. The magic is in the micro-perforated construction—thousands of tiny holes that allow heat to escape and the breeze to flow right through. It’s essentially a personal AC unit disguised as a sharp, stylish shirt.
Unlike standard "performance" shirts that look like gym gear, the Bless Up maintains a premium, matte finish. It’s built with 4-way mechanical stretch, meaning it moves with your body whether you’re casting a line on Sugar Lake or reaching for a cold one on the patio. It’s the shirt our staff lives in from June through September.
Tactical Breathability: The perforated fabric is designed to wick moisture away from your skin and dry instantly, keeping you from looking like a swampy mess in the heat.
The Fabric: A high-end blend of Polyester and Spandex that is naturally wrinkle-resistant. You can pull this out of a stuffed travel bag, give it a shake, and it’s ready for dinner.
Vernon Utility: This is the ultimate "Boat-to-BBQ" transition piece. It’s technical enough to handle a splash of lake water but clean enough for a night out downtown.
Fit: Classic / Slim-Straight Fit
Fabric: Perforated 4-Way Mechanical Stretch (Moisture Wicking)
Buttons: Durable, rubberized branded buttons
Construction: Reinforced seams for long-term durability
Pockets: Single chest pocket with a clean, low-profile finish
Vibe: Clean / Breezy / High-Performance
No Sweat Marks: Because of the perforation and quick-dry tech, this shirt is famous for hiding sweat—a massive win for those Vernon wedding season afternoons.
Travel King: This is the #1 shirt our staff packs for surf trips or camping. It doesn't hold odors and never needs an iron.
Staff Approved: We’ve seen these shirts last for years. The quality is a cut above your average mall-brand button-up, and the comfort is unmatched.
