Classic T-shirt: straightforward, straight and therefore comfortable cut. The fabric is a heavyweight jersey made from organically grown cotton, which makes the T-shirt more of a standalone piece than a base layer. This purist shirt can be worn with a variety of outfits and has an elasticated edging at the round neckline.

Mela is a Hindi word that means "acting together", and this idea is at the heart of everything the Kassel-based label Melawear does. Producing clothing, bags and sneakers in India, Melawear personally selects its partners locally and regularly undergoes inspections by fair trade and GOTS certification bodies. Melawear products therefore meet the highest standards - from the cultivation of the organic cotton to the dyeing and fabric production through to the finishing. In addition, they are certified with the "Grüner Knopf" seal, a state textile seal that recognizes companies that already meet particularly demanding social and environmental standards and want to improve on this high level. Last but not least, Melawear wants its products to be a timeless alternative to the fast pace of the fashion industry.
