Reviews

“If you're after a high-quality music system that looks great, is lovely to use and sounds wonderful, the Ruark R2 Mk4 should be at the top of your wishlist. It's the kind of product that could – and should – be considered alongside any budget hi-fi separates as a more lifestyle (but still very hi-fi-sounding) alternative.”

WHAT HI-FI?

“With a gorgeous finish that hides incredible smarts and solid drivers, this is a top-spec radio to wake up to each morning.”

- GQ

“The R2 Mk4 is a wonderful way to consume music and radio. It's the sort of speaker that deserves to be on show, perhaps even on a shelf all of its own.”

- INDEPENDENT

“The Ruark is just so easy to use, so easy to get playing with a single tap of the power button, that we reckon it must have quadrupled the amount of music we played in that space during its time. And that's a recommendation in itself.”

- SOUND+IMAGE

“The new R2 Music System is a typically splendid offering, with a retro-yet-modern look which will fit into most homes and even smarten them up somewhat.”

- THE TELEGRAPH

“The R2 Mk4 sounds brilliant and is a pleasure to use. It's the kind of radio and streaming system that encourages you to explore all the music, podcasts and radio out there – and it'll make your favourite bands and artists sound amazing.”

- EXPERT REVIEWS

“Fantastic styling and excellent sound quality come to define this speaker.”

Reliable, well-made shirt with a slightly lighter color than expected
Special Size: Standard, Size: X-Large, Color: Navy, Special Size: Standard, Size: X-Large, Color: Navy
This Alimens & Gentle Oxford shirt is a solid, well-made option that holds up well over time. After roughly 20 wears and washes, it’s proven to be durable and fairly resistant to wrinkles, which is a big plus for a cotton button-down. Fit & Comfort: The fit runs a bit on the loose side, but it’s still comfortable and easy to wear. It’s not a slim fit, so if you prefer a more tailored look, keep that in mind. Material & Performance: The fabric is thicker than most standard dress shirts, which makes it a great choice for cooler weather. It provides a bit more structure and warmth, but it may not be as breathable in the summer months. On the plus side, it washes and irons well and maintains its shape over time. Appearance & Versatility: The shirt pairs well with both dress pants and jeans, so it works in both professional and casual settings. One thing to note — the actual color is noticeably lighter than what’s shown in the listing. In my case, I still liked the look and kept it, but it’s something to be aware of when ordering. Bottom Line: A dependable, slightly heavier Oxford shirt that’s great for fall and winter wear. Best for those who prefer a relaxed fit and don’t mind a small variation in color from the listing.

What A Find! Unbelievable Quality and Price!
Special Size: Standard, Size: Large, Color: Plaid-light Blue
I can't believe the quality of this shirt!! I ordered the blue checked one for my husband for a costume. The price was right and I didn't expect much, as it was just for a costume. It came packed into a little box, which I figured showed it would be super thin and cheaply made, but didn't really care as only needed it for one time. Woah!!!! I opened the box and was absolutely floored by the quality and heft to the material. It is crazy. I don't know how they get this shirt into that box, but it is baffling. This shirt is of high quality, with all the seems sewn well. The fabric is every bit as good as the brand of oxford shirt that costs 3 times the price of this one. My husband goes between medium and large. He takes 16" neck in dress shirts. We ordered the large and it fits well. Has a little room, but not in a too big type of way. I washed it once before wearing, and it washed well. Not much shrinking at all. It ironed very easily without a problem. Yes, it is 100% percent cotton. Because of the quality and fit, I will now order additonal colors. My husband loves this shirt. This is an excellent buy!!!

My partner loves this shirt and is very particular. He likes the green color and that it is cotton. Bought more colors from this company. Runs true to size.

Nice shirt!
Special Size: Standard, Size: Large, Color: White
Fits well. Large is true to size. Soft and breathable. My husband was a Brooks Brothers only shirt wearer. He likes the pinpoint cotton. I washed it cold and dried it on delicate cycle. It is slightly wrinkled but perfect to wear casually with blue jeans.
