Looks alright, but then I think their shirts all look alright but they don't really tickle my fancy either.

Re: Turnbull & Asser "Journey" shirts

I'm not keen on their cuffs and for the money I'd rather get a Barba or Fineamore from Shop The Finest, which are cheaper. Both top notch makers.

I'd have to touch the journey shirt before making a judgement on cloth, some of these non iron treatments don't leave a nice touch. I suspect T&A's would be pretty good though. I've a Canali rain mac thats treated with something that doesn't crease, its a very light wool and is damn good. I was in Nice a few months back and the it pissed it down, like walking in a waterfall, flights cancelled, never seen rain like it but the coat didn't let a drop through the cloth. Doesn't feel like wool though.

Re: Turnbull & Asser "Journey" shirts

"In order to achieve the unique crease-resistant properties, Turnbull & Asser changed its usual shirt construction technique by fusing the shirt's collar and cuff (as opposed to being 'unfused', when the cloth is loose from the internal fuses), to maintain a clean, sharp shape. A finishing treatment has also been added to the Journey fabric to ensure the yarn stays straight, instead of springing back to its original coiled shape."

Re: Turnbull & Asser "Journey" shirts

I have bought one. It feels a bit stiffer and less breathable. I will report back after having washed it a few times.

I'm  not sure they'd be anyone posting in the Wardrobe if those rules were adhered to fully!

So I have washed the shirt a few times but it still feels like something is sticking to the fabrics surface.

Exactly! Collar and cuffs feel like cardboard.

It has to go.
