        @tody:

        oz per square yard, as opposed to grams per square meter.
        now you do the math 😉

        if you want to cheat, here's a comparison chart, it's 373gsm:
        https://fashion-incubator.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/gsm_to_oz_yd_2.pdf

        Ok, so what you're saying is that the 11 ounces (311.8 grams) being advertised for this shirt is actually ounces per square yard rather than the weight one of square meter of fabric. The excerpt from the Merz B Schwanen FAQ copied below would indicate that an 11 oz fabric is 311.8 gsm which translates to 9.20 oz/square yard in your linked conversion chart as well as this calculator… https://www.ginifab.com/feeds/ozyd2_gm2/.

        "What does the weight in the product description mean?
        Fabric weight is measured per m² of fabric. For example, with a weight of 200 grams (7,1oz) per m², this means that a 1 meter wide and 1 meter long piece of fabric weighs 200 grams (7,1oz) "

        So, if it's 11 ounces per square yard, the shirt is 373 gsm (13.1 ounce fabric weight).
        If it's 11 ounces in fabric weight, it's 311.8 gsm (9.2 ounces per square yard).

        Either way, I own and love the shirt…I'm just trying to compare the weight against other brands and have a point of reference.

              @Matt I would say that ours are ever so slightly heavier. Maybe 10oz : 11oz sort of difference

                                Love the color too. Fabric became really strange to the touch though. I feel like it needs a machine wash before I can start to wear it. Anybody experienced with that?

                                            @weftyarn said in IHTL-1501 - Extra Heavy Cotton Knit Crew Neck Sweater:

                                            This „tee“ is absolutely incredible. I can easily wear it as a second layer over a tanktop or an actual tee (no 11Oz 😂), which will make this an autumn favorite.

                                            In case i ever want to wear it as a first layer: Has anybody successfully shrunk these?
                                            I feel like I’m between XL/XXL.

                                            Curious what size this is and what your measurements are.

                                            That’s exactly how I’d like mine to fit.
