Button-Ups

The verdict

A summer work shirt at premium pricing; evaluate carefully for season and color.

Fit

Short-sleeve Movement is cut loose for heat—expect roomy shoulders and chest. Mist Sunburst is a light print; prints show wrinkles more readily than solids.

Quality

At $158 for a short-sleeve, this prices higher than long versions. Cotton fabrics from Vietnam are serviceable; short-sleeve construction (arm seams) is often first to show wear.

Price check

At $158, you're paying a seasonal premium. The short-sleeve format and pattern push price up; long-sleeve Movement options are better value per wear.

Best for

Warm-weather work wear if you live in a hot climate year-round; risky for seasonal-only wear at this price point.

Care

Cotton benefits from cool water washing and line drying to preserve color; short sleeves are prone to collar curl.

Fit check: Faherty

True to size

Faherty fits true to size with a deliberately relaxed cut — take your usual size, and only size down on the roomiest dresses and boxy tees if you're between sizes.

Owners and hands-on reviewers consistently report Faherty running true to size, with the slight ease built into the cut rather than a sign to size down. The relaxed silhouette shows up across lines — tees are described as boxy-but-not-oversized, pants run about a half-inch generous in the waist (not enough to change size), and some dresses and boxier tops read roomy enough that between-sizes buyers go down. A minority of owners find pieces large and boxy at their usual size — one Reddit user had a medium tailored — and a few customer reviews flag garment-to-garment inconsistency, but that's the exception in the feedback, not the pattern.

Sizing advice: Order your usual size across the line; if you're between sizes, size down only on roomy dresses and boxy tees — everywhere else stay true, since the relaxed drape is intentional.

What owners report about Faherty button-ups

Owners describe Faherty's button-ups as unusually soft for casual shirts — brushed cottons and linen blends that drape well — with a slightly relaxed cut that most reviewers say runs true to size. Longer-term owners report the fabrics holding up: one reviewer notes a flannel worn over a year with zero pilling. The consistent pushback is price for a casual shirt, and a minority of Trustpilot reviewers report items shrinking after washing according to the care instructions.

Strengths: Reviewers repeatedly single out fabric feel — soft brushed cotton and lightweight linen blends that drape better than the price peers they compare against.
Watch out for: The main complaints are the high price for casual shirts and scattered customer reports of shrinkage even when care instructions were followed.
Sizing: Reviewers report the shirts run fairly true to size with an intentionally slightly relaxed fit, so most advise taking your usual size rather than sizing down.
