#L04 Schiesser Revival Karl-heinz

The reason I chose this T-shirt is that these days there are a lot of oversized clothes, and most T-shirts are oversized too. It's becoming more and more difficult for me to find T-shirts that I like that fit tightly, but the Schiesser Revival Karl-heinz henley neck T-shirt that I'm introducing here is a T-shirt that has continued to be made with the same quality and tight fit as it always has.

Oversized T-shirts look great on young people, but when worn by an older man like me, they look a bit sloppy, so I tend to stick to tight-fitting T-shirts or the old-fashioned Hanes-style T-shirts, which make up the majority of my T-shirt collection.

The reason I decided to buy the henley-neck T-shirt I'm introducing this time was because my favourite select shop was selling it, and I found information about it being in stock on the shop's website. I like the silhouette and the details, so I went to the shop straight away, talked to the owner, and tried it on. It was exactly my style, so I bought three of them in different colours.

I use the expression ‘tight fit’, but one of my preferences is that the width of the shoulders should fit. The henley neck T-shirt I'm introducing this time fulfils exactly that condition. I think that this condition is the best for fitting in combination with a jacket or top, and I choose not only T-shirts but also shirts and jackets based on this idea.

The features of the design are that it is made from soft organic cotton fabric and has a form that follows the lines of the body. There are many unique details. The sleeves are long, the cuffs are long and tight, the neckline and the cut-out for the henley neck are deep and the neckline is slightly thick, the length is long, and there is reinforcement fabric from the neck to the shoulders.

The feature of this T-shirt is that it follows the lines of the body, so it shows off your figure exactly as it is, and it can also be used as a barometer for maintaining your body shape. Not only does it fit around the torso and chest, but the sleeves also fit around the upper arms, so it is also a T-shirt that is easy to wear if you have a certain amount of arm circumference, and it gives you a masculine and attractive style.

When I was younger, I didn't really like henley-neck T-shirts because they reminded me of the underwear (steteco) worn by my father and grandfather. The Schiesser Revival Karl-heinz henley-neck T-shirt has a quality that makes it look stylish even when worn on its own over jeans, without that kind of image.
It's a German brand, and although this T-shirt is made as underwear, it's a great T-shirt that doesn't look like you're wearing underwear. I enjoy wearing it with my favourite 501XX and field jacket.

As a side note, I often have fashion discussions with the owner of the shop where I bought the clothes. We got talking about Michael Tapia T-shirts, which are similar to the Schiesser Revival T-shirts we introduced here, and it was a lively discussion. Michael Tapia has stopped working, so it's not possible to get them now, but I used to love Michael Tapia T-shirts myself, and I still have a few. There are some core fans who want them to make a comeback, and the shop owner is one of them who really wants them to make a comeback.

• 100% organic cotton, Egyptian cotton

• the neckline is deep
• the sleeves are long, the cuffs are thick and tight
• the length is long

Blue jeans and a white T-shirt are a classic summer look, but you can enjoy a different style by wearing the Schiesser Revival Karl-heinz henley neck top, which has been carefully designed down to the smallest detail.
It's made from high-quality, soft cotton, so it's comfortable to wear, and it's become my summer staple. It's usually worn with jeans, but it also goes well with shorts, military pants, chinos, etc., so it's useful to have one because it goes with so many different types of pants.
