“Grief is like the wake behind a boat…”

Jimmy Buffett once reflected that grief follows close — a wave large enough to swamp you if you stop moving. But if you keep going, the waters calm, the night breaks, and memory becomes light again.

He wasn’t wrong.  What he hinted at — and what this shirt declares — is why we don’t row alone.  Because grief without Jesus is an anchor.
Grief with Him is a burden shared, lifted, carried.

He steadies the hands on the oars.
He calms the waters no strength of ours can tame.
And when the wake finally fades, He is the peace waiting on shore.

A lone rower crossing quiet water.
A chapel on the horizon.
A cross between Steady and Ahead — not as art, but truth.

For the believer who keeps moving — not by willpower, but by His grace.
For the ones who know sorrow is real… but so is the Savior who bears it.

Steady ahead. Because Christ carries what we can’t.

Comfort and Fit

This garment is built the way good shirts used to be made — with weight, honesty, and the kind of cotton that softens because you lived in it, not because it was flimsy to begin with. The fabric is a true heavyweight knit, combed and ring-spun for a smooth finish but substantial enough to hold its structure.

It has that grounded feel in the hand, the kind you notice the first time you put it on and appreciate more as it molds to you over time. The collar holds shape instead of collapsing, the shoulders stay true, and the seams are reinforced so the shirt keeps its lines instead of twisting or sagging after a month.

The fit is traditional and steady — not a boxy workshirt and not a trendy slim cut either. It’s the kind of fit you forget about once you're wearing it, because it simply sits right on the body: room where you need it, structure where it matters, the kind of silhouette that reads strong without trying. It looks like what it is — a shirt meant to serve, not advertise itself.

Size guide: Sizing runs true. Order your regular size for a classic, dependable fit. If you prefer a closer, sharper look, you can size down; if you want that relaxed, lived-in drape that feels like a favorite from the first wear, size up. This is a shirt that rewards being worn hard and often. It breaks in the way good things do — slowly, honestly, and with character that belongs to you.
