The Janji repeat merino shirt is my all-time favorite shirt. I own maybe ten of them. Half of which are the long sleeved version. I use the shirts for both casual wear (they’re so comfy) and exercise. I just purchased the slate color in the long sleeve option. However, I was very disappointed to find that Janji has removed the rear collar loop! Janji, why??! That is one of the key features of this shirt. I’m a runner and, because these shirts manage odor so well, I can get multiple wears out of each before washing. I use the loop on the back to hang the shirt from a hook in my bathroom. This method allows for faster drying versus laying the shirt over the tub. And it’s also convenient when camping, for the same reason. Honestly, had I realized the hook was removed, I wouldn’t have purchased this year’s version. Janji also changed the orientation and cut off the thumb holes, though this is less of an issue for me.
I haven’t worn my new slate repeat merino yet, but I think this is still a great shirt. But it’s lost some functionality. I’d you don’t care about the hanging loop, I recommend it. It’s very comfortable, light, stylish, and dries pretty quickly. But for me, the absence of the loop is a deal breaker. I’ll definitely check before buying in the future.
