Description

The Merz b. Schwanen S218 Good Originals Relaxed Fit Heavyweight Longsleeve in Charcoal is a vintage-inspired basic made from a 10.7 oz. Loopwheeled 2-Thread Jersey, suitable for year-round use. This shirt is produced in Albstadt, Germany, using 100% Organic Cotton on specialized loopwheel circular knitting machines from the late 1800s to the 1960s. These machines operate extremely slowly and utilize gravity to create a consistently tensioned, thick, and breathable jersey with exceptional durability. Inspired by classics and reimagined for the future, this substantial Longsleeve is more sweatshirt than t-shirt. It boasts a slubbed pattern achieved through a seamless single circular body that drapes beautifully, embodying a contemporary antique-styled grit. The design simplicity of the S218 Longsleeve is thoughtfully enhanced with traditional construction details such as a ribbed crewneck, underarm gussets, and vintage stitching on the hem and cuffs, making it an ideal elevated basic for those who appreciate craftsmanship in all forms. Inspired by the industrial era, the Good Originals Loopwheeled Heavyweight Longsleeve has been modernized into an all-season staple that will wear beautifully for years.
