Our 'Made in Portugal' line, established in 2016, represents more than just an expansion of our collection; it is a step forward in sustainable and mindful manufacturing. Rooted in the values of Merz b. Schwanen, this line reflects our ongoing commitment to honest craftsmanship, now infused with modern colors, organic and recycled materials, and contemporary styles.
Carefully and sustainably crafted in Portugal, this line honors the same standards and values that define our heritage while embracing innovation. By partnering with like-minded, quality-driven, and, where possible, family-run manufacturers, we ensure that each garment upholds our brand’s unwavering dedication to design excellence and socially responsible production.
From the moment you first wear one of our garments, whether it’s a contemporary T-shirt, sweatshirt, or knitted pullover, you’ll notice the exceptional quality of the materials used. Our commitment to using only high-quality, organic cotton and other sustainable fibers ensures that each piece is not only eco-friendly but also incredibly comfortable. The result is a range of garments with unique textures—from smooth, soft haptics to more structured, fleecier surfaces—that you may never want to take off.
Our knitwear line caters to everyone, with timeless silhouettes and modern cuts ranging from classic to relaxed to oversized fits, ensuring a perfect fit for all. For men, classic T-shirts and sweatshirts are complemented by new additions like chinos, jackets and shirts, while our womenswear offers relaxed, feminine shapes and cuts.
Each piece in the 'Made in Portugal' line is crafted with the utmost care, reflecting the experience and attention to detail of the skilled Portuguese craftspeople who share our passion for their craft and for the people they work with. With 'Made in Portugal' , we celebrate life’s simple pleasures through garments that feel as good as they look, made with the same love and dedication that defines Merz b. Schwanen.
