Merz b. Schwanen - 11.3oz Short Sleeve Sweatshirt Relaxed Fit - Teak

Merz has been on our list for quite some time. Can you believe they've been around for 111 years? That's currently our oldest brand! They've stuck around because they do something quite incredible with basics. They stand behind the idea that basics can be something to get excited about. So they create the best and put their iconic branding on just the tags. We're so happy to introduce this German line to our store. In the same way we correlate Japanese production to meticulous attention to detail, we correlate German production to impeccable engineering. We hope you love these super-engineered basics!

If you've followed us over the last ten years, you know that we love a good cut-off crewneck. We've carried them in the past, and we'll carry them in the future. They're an incredible option for guys who typically have very limited options in tops. They wear like a tee shirt but weigh in like a sweatshirt and we really dig that. This one is a 3-thread all organic cotton loopback fleece.  It's super comfy and ready to be layered straight away. Like everything Merz makes, these are constructed impeccably.

A variance of +/-.5" is within tolerance. 

Fit Notes: So these fit more like the trim fit we expect from Merz. We heard over and over that Merz fit small, and these indeed fit the bill. Tommy needed to size up twice in this crew neck. The XL fit pretty spot on. As long as you're cool with a more classic, short-in-the-body fit you can likely get away with sizing up just once. You can see the chest is pretty normal sizing, but the length is where you want to pay close attention. Tomy is 5'10," 170lbs, with a 40" chest, and typically wears a North American M, and a Japanese L.
