Merz b. Schwanen - 12oz Loopwheeled Sweatpant Vintage Washed - Army
Merz has been on our list for quite some time. Can you believe they've been around for 111 years? That's currently our oldest brand! They've stuck around because they do something quite incredible with basics. They stand behind the idea that basics can be something to get excited about. So they create the best and put their iconic branding on just the tags. We're so happy to introduce this German line to our store. In the same way we correlate Japanese production to meticulous attention to detail, we correlate German production to impeccable engineering. We hope you love these super-engineered basics!
Vintage times two! While fabric made on their original loopwheelers in Germany itself has a unique vintage feel, Merz takes it even a step further! How? These authentically made pieces have undergone a special pigment dying process: thanks to this particular treatment, these pieces receive an exceptional vintage optic.
These easy-going sweatpants bring back the vibe from back then. The vintage optic, along with the elastic band on the leg, may remind you of your favorite sweatpants you've already owned almost your whole life — but new and even better.

Fit Notes: They're clocking these pants as an oversized fit. Our guess is that they made them a little roomier to accommodate the shrink from the wash. Shop Owner Tommy was easily able to wear a small in these. He is 5'10," 165lbs, with a 32-33" waist, and typically wears a North American drawstring pant S, and a Japanese M.
