The best of both worlds in a broad shouldered t-shirt. Organic cotton on the outside with natural merino performance against the skin. Merino and cotton take dye differently creating a depth of color and tone no single fiber can provide, plus it’s very soft, warm and cozy.

Cottonweight Merino

Fabric Story

Soft on the skin and opaque to the eye, Cottonweight Merino is a double knit jersey with an 18.5 micron merino inner face and a cotton outer face. The merino inner face is beautifully soft with a cool, dry body climate while the crisp cotton outer face brings the structure, heft and opacity we expect from a heavyweight T-shirt. Weighing in at 220gsm, it makes for a proper heavyweight t-shirt fabric.
