Unisex shirt Relaxed Fit

The name suggests it: Here comes a casual shirt for every day. The fabric is made of skin-friendly cotton, the cut is detailed and designed for comfort: This is visible in the pinch pleat under the shoulder yoke and the triangular fabric inserts under the armpits. The shirt, crafted with a rounded torso hem and Kent collar, is equipped with a breast pocket with pen separation.

The knitwear manufacturer Merz b. Schwanen had existed since 1911 in the Swabian Alps, once a traditional textile-producing region. In recent times, a Berliner, Peter Plotnicki, revived the tradition. Once more, the company is manufacturing shirts and sports trousers in the area – for the most part on original knitting machines dating from the 1920s or at least the 1960s. Their slow operational speeds are an advantage: They provide for the high density, characteristic structure, and substantial feel, as well as the excellent shape retention of the knitwear. A small but remarkable detail: Plotnicki has the clothing labels with the original Merz b. Schwanen logo and lettering crafted on an old weaver’s loom for jacquard ribbons.
