FAQs
What makes loopwheel fabric special?
Loopwheel knitting is a slow, traditional process that creates a seamless tube of fabric, resulting in a garment that is more durable and maintains its shape better than standard T-shirts.
Is this the exact shirt from The Bear?
Yes, the Merz B. Schwanen 215 is the style synonymous with the character Carmy in the television series The Bear.
How does the sizing run?
The shirt features a regular fit. If you prefer a more tailored look, stay with your standard size, but consider the potential for minor cotton shrinkage when choosing.
Can I put this shirt in the dryer?
It is highly recommended to hang dry to prevent shrinkage and maintain the integrity of the loopwheel construction.
What is the purpose of the triangular inserts?
The triangular inserts under the arms are a heritage detail that provides extra room for movement and helps prevent the seams from pulling under stress.
Troubleshooting
Shirt feels stiff after washing
Natural cotton may feel firm after air drying; giving the garment a light shake or gentle steam will restore its original softness.
Minor shrinkage after first wash
Standard cotton may experience slight contraction; avoid high-heat drying and ensure you follow care labels precisely to maintain fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this garment is crafted from 100% cotton, proper care is essential to preserve its fit. Always check the internal tag for specific washing temperatures. To avoid shrinking, it is highly recommended to wash in cold water and hang dry rather than using a high-heat tumble dryer. The classic crew neck and regular cut ensure high compatibility with various styles, ranging from casual workwear to modern minimalist outfits.
