This white Merz B. Schwanen t-shirt features short sleeves, a round neck, straight hem and is crafted in Italy from an organic, heavy-weight cotton. Like opera, Champagne or the works of Ernest Hemingway, you can't remember a time in your life when you didn't appreciate the power of a plain white tee. Made by circular knitting machines from the 1920s, the Merz B. Schwanen tee is the epitome of sophistication while eschewing any unnecessary seams and stitching. Much like Hemingway.
