This turtleneck is a garment that is as minimalist as it is versatile, deriving its exceptional quality from the material used and its craftsmanship. It is made from pure merino wool certified according to the Responsible Wool Standard (RWS). Merino wool isn’t just soft to the touch—it’s also incredibly warm and helps regulate body temperature. At the same time, it’s breathable; it absorbs a lot of moisture and quickly releases it back out. This makes it the material of choice even for more active pursuits—anyone who enjoys jogging, hiking, or cycling will appreciate this. The merino wool is knitted here into a fine ribbed fabric that softly hugs the body’s contours without feeling constricting. The turtleneck accentuates the shirt’s clean, understated silhouette and serves as a substitute for a scarf during the cooler months. The shirt can be worn on its own or paired with a blazer, (wind) jacket, or wool sweater.

What began as an idea over a glass of wine in the summer of 2013 is now a successful Hamburg-based eco-fashion label: Jan ’n June. Instead of catering to short-lived trends, founders Anna Bronowski and Juliana Holtzheimer focus on timeless, minimalist fashion that focuses on natural resources and is produced under socially responsible working conditions. The materials used include natural fibers such as certified organic cotton and European linen, innovative regenerated fibers such as Lyocell (TENCEL™) and recycled polyester and polyamide. To keep production routes as short as possible, the clothing is produced almost exclusively in Europe. Each item of clothing has a hangtag with a QR code that can be used to trace the product's supply chain. Since 2021, Jan ’n June has been certified according to the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS). This sets high standards for the production of textiles made from organically produced natural fibers - across the entire value chain: from the extraction of the fibers, their processing and distribution to ethical and social criteria. Compliance with the standard is reviewed annually and the GOTS certification is re-awarded.
