1950s THE ORIGINALS Loopwheeled Classic Fit Lightweight T-Shirt - Army

A subtle nod to vintage craftsmanship, the Loopwheeled Classic Fit Lightweight T‑Shirt from Merz b Schwanen refines the everyday staple. Knit on heritage loopwheel machines, its feather‑light 4.6 oz organic cotton fabric offers a soft, breathable touch that carries the charm of authentic production. With a classic crewneck silhouette, this tee brings casual elegance and timeless authenticity to your wardrobe.

Materials & Craftsmanship

Woven in Germany using traditional loopwheelers, the 155 gsm (4.6 oz) single‑thread jersey is ultra‑soft yet built to hold its shape. Crafted from 100% organic cotton and free from chemical finishes, the tee features tubular construction with no side seams for added comfort and durability. A triangular insert under the arms and ribbon‑panel neckline reflect careful attention to detail and reinforce its classic build.

Fit & Styling

Cut in a classic fit, the shirt has a slim‑through‑the‑body proportion that embraces a clean, tailored silhouette. The crewneck holds true over time, while the lightweight drape makes it perfect for layering or solo wear. With natural shrinkage after wash (length and sleeve shrink ~2″), sizing up is recommended unless you’re after a snug, vintage feel.
