The verdict
Fit
The High-Rise cut is relaxed and generous through the waist. Intended for an easy, untucked look. Size down if you prefer a closer fit.
Quality
Basic cotton at this price is functional but not refined. Expect adequate seams and standard finishing; may pill slightly after multiple washes.
Is the price fair?
At $40, this is bottom-tier pricing for button-ups. Durability is acceptable for the cost; not built to last beyond 1–2 years of heavy rotation.
Best for
Budget-conscious shoppers needing multiple neutral basics that work as rotation pieces without investment.
Care
Wash cold and air-dry to reduce pilling; avoid extended tumble drying.
What owners report about Mavi button-ups
Owner reviews on Mavi's own product pages skew positive on construction and color retention: one linen-shirt buyer wrote the color "stayed after washes" through repeated wear, and a chambray-shirt owner called it "well made" with color "true to photos." The recurring theme is fit running loose — several reviewers describe the button-ups as relaxed to oversized, and one buyer who ordered an extra-small said it "was very large" and had to be returned. A couple of reviewers also found the linen texture "a little rigid" rather than soft.
- Strengths
- Reviewers repeatedly praise the construction quality and color retention after washing.
- Watch out for
- The most common complaint is sizing running oversized, with at least one buyer returning an extra-small for being too large; a couple of reviewers also noted the linen fabric feels stiffer than expected.
- Sizing
- Multiple owners recommend sizing down, since the button-ups (especially the linen styles) tend to run large and relaxed rather than true to size.
