The 01/5 Longsleeve Organic Cotton – a light, long-sleeved T-shirt with a higher neckline made out of Piqué from 100% Organic Cotton. We thought about those 80ies polo-shirts and figured a way to make this fabric less traditional...

Fits loose, the 01/5 Longsleeve Organic Cotton is one of our essentials and our model is 172 cm and a German size 34 wearing our size M. The sizes range from XS to XL – it is unisex.

ABOUT THE FABRIC

100% Organic Cotton, GOTS certified and made in Germany.

WHO MADE THIS LONGSLEEVE

The 01/5 Longsleeve Organic Cotton is designed in Munich by our mastermind and fantastic tailor Sabine Dicklberger. It is produced by our manufacturing partner Studio U&N near Chemnitz in Germany.

WHAT IS SO GOOD ABOUT THIS LONGSLEEVE

The Material. Organic Cotton is a hero. The production does not require chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or defoliants, and the social impact improves the well-being of the farmers. Head over to our CONSCIOUS FASHION GUIDE for more information on Organic Cotton.

LET'S SPEAK ABOUT THE PRICE

Transparency is essential to us, and therefore we are quite clear about the costs of each item. The 01/5 Longsleeve Organic Cotton had a long way to go; from designing the samples with our master tailor to pattern making, the cost of the fabric as well as the cost of the hardware (e.g. button, linings, threads), the manufacturing costs to marketing costs (including the photographer, model wearing the 01/5 Longsleeve Organic Cotton, location, hair, and make-up artist, travel expenses and advertising costs for working with influencers and other advertisers). We enlisted all incurred costs involved during the process from our idea to the final 01/5 Longsleeve Organic Cotton. In case you have any questions, please feel free to contact us; we're happy to get in touch with you if there is a need for further clarification.
