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 have 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!
This puppy is not only the perfect color but has this wonderful vintage feel. Normally, you have to do some kind of wash process to get this but they've gone way back to create the fleece in a similar fashion to its vintage predecessors. This baby, while being brand new, has all the effects of being old. We're talking contrast stitching, the military-inspired tag, and longer ribbing on this one. It's a true beauty.

Fit Notes: For being an oversized fit, these surprised us. These fit more true to what we heard about Merz than anything we've seen so far...they're small. Shop owner Tommy was forced to size up to Large in this to get the proper fit. We would recommend sizing up at least one from your normal size. He is 5'10," 175lbs, with a 40" chest, and typically wears a North American M, and a Japanese L.
