[Merz B. Schwanen]
COMPANY INFORMATION
Balthasar Merz started running the textile factory on the Swabian Alps in Germany in 1922. In 2011, one of his 90-year-old henleys was discovered at a flea market by Peter and Gitta Plotnicki, who were so taken by every detail of the fine knit, that they decided to visit the factory. Before long, they had acquired the company, renovated the building, and restored the original machines to full working order. Today, they continue to make a range of basics featuring the same captivating details and precise manufacturing standards as those a century ago—only now with organic, sustainable textiles and a range of classic colors. Their factory is one of two in the entire world that utilizes circular or “loop wheeled’ knitting. And the only one in all of Europe.

Are you strong enough? This longsleeve is a real beast!
Its solid and slightly slubbed structure is exceptional in every way. This longsleeve is a real breath-taking piece that feels sturdy yet comfortable thanks to its unique structure. Its timeless design and the loopwheeled heavy material made of 100% organic cotton make this garment more than a regular longsleeve – it's probably the world's most sturdy and heaviest jersey material.
The Merz b. Schwanen 2M15 Black t-shirt is a solid medium-to-heavyweight t-shirt made with 100% organic cotton and made using vintage circular knitting machines. This jersey t-shirt is a solid alternative to their popular 215 t-shirt, with a slightly lighter fabric weight and side seams that may allow for some to have a better fit.
Note: Recommend sizing up one full size due to shrinkage after wash. Note that Merz 2M15 t-shirt is unwashed and will shrink about 3% in length. The chest/width dimensions will shrink a little, but should generally stretch back out with wear. Recommend cold wash, hang dry.
