What are people saying about our knitwear.
Very good quality
This is a very high-quality T-shirt. It's very comfortable and soft. Be careful not to put it in the washing machine. If you must, use a cold, very gentle cycle to avoid damaging the fibers.

Designed in the Netherlands, knitted to layer, worn across seasons.
Knitwear at ETQ means two knitted fabrics, both clean and tonal, made to layer. The lighter end is Cotton Silk Knit, cotton with a silk hand, used across our Tailored polos and the TS 04 crew. For warmer, structured pieces we move to fine-gauge merino, breathable, temperature-regulating and, unusually for pure merino, machine-washable. Designed in our Dutch studio and made in family-owned ateliers in Portugal, Turkey or China, chosen per piece for the best make.
Across more than 500 verified reviews ETQ holds 4.6 out of 5, and comfort is the word that recurs most after quality. It's the quiet upgrade people repeat-buy across colours, part of a community of more than 250,000 customers.
The range, by how you'll actually wear it
TS 04 Tailored crew. A Cotton Silk knit crew-neck in tonal shades: the quiet upgrade to a tee.
Tailored polos. The PO 04 and PO 05 in the same Cotton Silk Knit, collared and refined.
Merino crew, half-zip, roll neck and cardigan. Fine-gauge wool in the merino collection, for warmth without bulk.
How to wear it
A fine knit is the quiet upgrade to a tee. Wear the Cotton Silk crew with an Essence trouser or chino and a suede loafer for the office, or over a collar for a layered look. As it cools, reach for a merino half-zip under an overshirt.
Fabric and fit
Cotton Silk Knit is soft, breathable and dry with a subtle sheen; merino is fine-gauge, breathable and temperature-regulating, so one knit covers spring evenings and winter office days. Both are knitted, not woven. A clean, regular fit; most customers find it true to size.
Care
Cotton Silk: machine wash cool, inside out, reshape and dry flat. Merino: a gentle wool cycle at 30°C, reshape and dry flat, no tumble dry. Exact care is on each product page.
Frequently asked about ETQ knitwear
What is ETQ knitwear made from?
Two knitted fabrics: Cotton Silk Knit (cotton with a silk hand) for the lighter pieces, and fine-gauge merino wool for the warmer ones.
Is the merino machine-washable?
Yes. Unusually for 100% merino, it's engineered for a gentle wool cycle at 30°C, so there's no hand-washing or dry cleaning. See the full merino collection.
Is merino warm without being bulky?
Yes. Fine-gauge merino is breathable and temperature-regulating, which is why a single knit works across seasons and layers cleanly under a jacket.
How does it fit?
A clean, regular fit. Most customers find it true to size; check the fit note on each product page.
How do I care for it?
Cotton Silk washes cool and dries flat; merino takes a gentle wool cycle at 30°C and a flat dry, never tumble dried. Exact care is on each product page.
Where is it made?
Designed in our Dutch studio and made in family-owned ateliers in Portugal, Turkey or China, chosen per piece. We like our makers with history: among our garment partners is a family-run knitting mill in Manisa, Turkey, working since 1898, four generations on, with knitting, dyeing and finishing under one roof. The merino is knitted in China from wool raised in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.
This is ETQ. Designed quietly. Worn for years. See merino wool, polos and sweaters, or the full menswear collection.

How to measure
Let’s find your perfect fit. Place a sheet of paper on the floor against the wall and put your feet (with socks) on it, heels against the wall. Make sure you lean on your feet with full power when measuring. Now you simply draw a line at the end of the biggest foot. Measure the distance with a ruler and find the size that matches it: see size table. Are you in between sizes? In that case, we suggest taking the bigger size.
Mediterranean Suede
Refined in style, matt in color. The ultra-soft suede leather is sanded and feels velvety soft. It is crafted from the inside layer of the leather hide. Mediterranean leather is the delicate choice.
Premium Suede
Experience unparalleled luxury. It's made of the finest selection of hides and superior finishing techniques. It is valued for its softness, flexibility, and ability to lend a sophisticated look. Our premium suede shoes need no lining, just one layer of leather. It wears like a second skin.
Nappa Leather
Soft. Smooth. Nappa leather makes extremely comfortable shoes. The leather is obtained from tanning animal hides. It is characterized by a fine grain and a smooth finish. It feels simply sophisticated.
Nubuck Leather
Premium nubuck: the best of the best. Exclusive leather that we sanded rough on the outside grain part of the hide, giving it a velvety butter-soft surface. It offers utmost suppleness.
Full Grain Leather
Full grain leather is naturally firmer and more durable as it is produced by retaining the top layer of the hide. Its appearance is natural, authentic, and robust. You are still able to see the grains. It looks just like the grains on your skin. We never sanded, buffed, or snuffed it, so this leather is super strong.
French Terry
Tès Chique. French terry is a knit characterized by its unique looped-back construction. One side is smooth, and the other side is textured with loops of thread. It is known for its comfort, breathability, and moisture-proof properties. French terry is available as lightweight or heavyweight.
Punti di Roma
Wrinkle-resistant, soft like a baby, and slightly elastic. This is Italian quality, knitted to perfection. Punti Di Roma has a heavy, rich quality as the stitches interlock on both sides of the fabric. The best part: it’s recovery properties. This fabric stays in shape. And so will you.
Bamboo
Bamboo fibers are derived from the pulp of bamboo plants. Bamboo knits are soft and breathable. Moisture wicking? Yes. Ideal for socks.
American Fleece

Known for its exceptional warmth and insulation, American Fleece is perfect for layering or wearing on its own. Its slightly brushed surface creates a plush, cozy feel, making it ideal for cooler climates.

Piqué Knit
A true classic in fabric craftsmanship, piqué knit is renowned for its unique textured surface, characterized by a subtle waffle or honeycomb pattern. Originally developed for sportswear, piqué knit has evolved into a sophisticated fabric that balances structure with breathability. The weave creates tiny raised patterns, adding a tactile dimension while allowing air to flow easily, making it perfect for all-season wear.
Soft yet durable, piqué knit is frequently used in polo shirts and garments that require a balance between casual and formal. It drapes beautifully while maintaining a slight stretch, offering comfort without losing its shape. Known for its ability to hold its form and resist wrinkling, this fabric is an excellent choice for those who value a polished look with minimal maintenance.
Mercerized Cotton
Mercerized cotton is the epitome of luxury in cotton fabrics. Through a special finishing process, the cotton fibers are treated to enhance their natural properties, resulting in a fabric that is smoother, stronger, and more lustrous. The mercerization process not only strengthens the fibers but also gives the cotton a subtle sheen that adds an elevated, polished look to the material.
What sets mercerized cotton apart is its ability to hold dye exceptionally well, resulting in vibrant, rich colors that resist fading over time. It’s smoother to the touch than regular cotton, offering a silk-like feel without sacrificing breathability. This fabric is durable, resists shrinking, and maintains its shape, making it ideal for garments that combine sophistication with everyday wearability.
At ETQ, our mercerized cotton shirts offer a refined, elegant look with the comfort and practicality of cotton. It’s the perfect choice for those who appreciate understated luxury and long-lasting quality in their wardrobe essentials.
Twill Fabric – Iron Free
Twill fabric is a durable, structured material characterized by its diagonal weave pattern, offering a distinct texture and visual depth. Known for its strength and versatility, twill is used in garments that require a bit more durability while maintaining a polished, professional look. The diagonal weave provides natural wrinkle resistance, making it an excellent choice for both casual and formal attire.
What sets our Iron-Free Twill apart is its advanced treatment that ensures a smooth, crisp appearance straight out of the wash, eliminating the need for ironing. This fabric is designed to stay sharp and maintain its form throughout the day, providing an effortlessly polished look with minimal effort. Its ability to resist creasing and maintain its structure makes it ideal for busy professionals or frequent travelers who need their clothing to perform as well as they do.
