Merz b. Schwanen's 214 Tee in Nature is a newer style, taking queues from the form and fabric of the 215, but relaxing the overall fit with a slightly wider chest. This nature tee has a slight off-white color and is made out of 100% pure organic cotton in an easygoing 2-thread fabric. As usual with Merz knits, it features a round crew neckline and a triangle insert under the armpit for maximum comfort. Made on original loopwheelers in Germany-one of two remaining loopwheeler operations in the world, the result is a seamless tubular fabric that will be your most comfortable tee.
Note: This is Merz's Relaxed Fit, which fits a little larger than their Classic Fit. We recommend still taking one size up for a relaxed fitted look, but you may be able to take your typical tops size (rather than sizing up) if you want a slim fit or if you are on the smaller end of your size. However, double check the measurements for the chest and length to make sure you've got the right size. The garment will shrink about 1" in length after wash, with less shrinkage in the chest. Chest will stretch back out after wear. Cold wash, hang dry. For additional information on sizing and shrinkage, see our blog post here.
Model: Model is 6'0'' and 175 lbs. wearing size 5 | M (his regular TTS, M) for a very slim fit; model typically wears 6 | L due to shrinkage, but we're showing the 5 | M here on the model for reference. After wash, the 5 | M would likely be too small on the model. Expect shrinkage after wash.
Measurement Note: Due to the irregularities characteristic of loopwheelers, there will be slight variations within each size. Accordingly, the measurements posted are general targets that we've found to be the average or each size. If you are more particular about the sizing, or know that you need one with a specific measurement within a size, feel free to leave a note at check-out indicating your measurement preference. In general, we do not find the irregularities significant enough to impact the size you should wear.
