Why it's worth it
Merino holds its shape through every wear — no slump, no sag.
The Edit
Merino wool in a flat, fine gauge with no surface texture — all the interest lives in the construction: a stand collar with a full snap placket that buttons flush to the chin, and an asymmetric ribbed hem that angles away from the body rather than lying flat. The shoulder seam sits slightly off the natural shoulder, giving the sleeve a softly dropped line without losing shape. Charcoal this flat and a silhouette this close to androgynous is a combination that gets out of the way of everything else.
