I tried on work tops at Gap, Banana Republic, and Old Navy. I learned higher prices don't always mean better quality.
Briefly

Searching for a button-up shirt, three Gap Inc. stores were visited: Gap, Banana Republic, and Old Navy. The Gap offered a comfortable linen option for $80, which felt lightweight. Drawbacks included a flimsy collar and noticeable white button stitching on a light blue shirt. The fit was noted as slightly oversize with a good variety of colors. Similar shirts were available from Banana Republic and Old Navy, highlighting different fabric choices and comfort levels.
I especially appreciated that this option was made of 100% linen, making the $80 price tag seem reasonable.
I was also drawn to the slightly oversize fit and variety of color options, offering lots of summer styling possibilities.
However, I noticed that the collar felt a bit flimsy, and I would have liked more structure around the neckline.
The stitching on the buttons was white, which didn't blend subtly with the light blue color of the top.
