The unique fabric of this garment was traditionally manufactured on original loopwheelers in Germany. It's made with artisan craftsmanship, patience, and a lot of experience.
An original flea market find from 1911 is the template for this 'worker button-up shirt'. Special attention to the authentic processing of the neckline. The collar is turned over finely by hand twice - real skill is required. This is exactly how the neckline of this shirt was originally processed 100 years ago, since the comfortable modern edging machines did not yet exist. In addition, the attached button placket made of cotton fabric and the original laundry buttons make this shirt a special eye-catcher. And of course, the patched neck mirror must not be missing today, as it was then for hard-working men.

About Maco-Imit: For over a hundred years, the material blend used for this shirt was a popular substitute for the expensive Maco-cotton from Egypt. Even today, the comfortable haptics can hold its own – this shirt may be a revision, but isn’t it an original piece nonetheless?
