Productinformation in detail

Button-up Shirt Long Sleeve MAKING OF DAY – wearable graphic art from Chemnitz

The story of MAKING OF DAY feels as if it was found in the middle of a city morning: posters, sketches, signs, fragments, colour and movement layered over one another. Its visual language comes from KARLSKOPF – direct, urban, graphic and closely connected with Chemnitz. Karl Marx-inspired illustrations, sharp black lines, bright colour fields and spontaneous-looking details turn the shirt into a vivid daytime collage. When someone asks about it, the wearer has a good answer: this is not a decorative print, but a piece of wearable visual culture, transferred onto cotton with precision and intent.

The GERMENS long sleeve shirt MAKING OF DAY was created with Martin König von KARLSKOPF. Martin König is the creative mind behind the Chemnitz-based label KARLSKOPF, known for a striking design approach, distinctive concepts and bold visual ideas. On this shirt, a mostly white ground meets red, yellow, black, blue and green accents. The result is bright, energetic and expressive – a men’s colourful long sleeve shirt with a clear graphic identity.

Not an ordinary allover print

MAKING OF DAY is a statement shirt, but it is not made like common patterned shirts. The artwork is not simply repeated, enlarged or reduced as a generic allover motif. GERMENS works with size-specific print data. The cotton fabric is made in Saxony and printed individually for each size. Afterwards, the shirt is cut by hand from 21 separate pattern pieces, with the artwork carefully positioned across the construction. This is why the design appears coherent, not accidental.

This production method is one of the defining differences of GERMENS. A shirt in XS should not feel like a shrunken version of a larger print, and a shirt in 6XL should not look like a stretched pattern. The proportions, colours and graphic elements are adapted so that every size has the same visual strength. With MAKING OF DAY, this matters strongly: the design carries movement, contrast and illustration, yet the placed print gives it order and shape. The result is not just a patterned men’s shirt, but wearable art with a concept that is highly unusual worldwide.

Cotton comfort, precise tailoring and everyday use

The MAKING OF DAY shirt is made from 100% cotton. The fabric is natural, skin-friendly, breathable, comfortable, odour-neutral and durable. It feels good in everyday wear and has enough visual presence for occasions where clothing is allowed to start a conversation. Worn with jeans, chinos, a jacket or a clean monochrome outfit, it works as a casual button-up shirt, a creative business shirt or an event shirt for exhibitions, city evenings, concerts and relaxed dinners.

The construction supports the expressive design. Closely spaced stitches along the edges, sturdy buttons sewn with a shank, angled cuffs and the characteristic GERMENS collar notch underline the attention to detail. The Kent collar is stabilised with stainless steel collar stays, helping it keep its shape. This gives MAKING OF DAY the presence of an artist-designed shirt and the reliability of a well-made cotton button-up shirt for men. The edition is limited to 99 pieces; when a size is not in stock, individual production may take several weeks.

Craftsmanship, sizes and care

For new GERMENS customers, the home try-on service is the easiest way to start. The service is free; only a small deposit is required, which is later refunded or credited. This makes it simple to test the right size at home before ordering. It is especially useful because the button-up shirt long sleeve MAKING OF DAY is available from XS to 6XL and is designed to look balanced in every size.

After purchase, the alteration service can refine the fit, for example by shortening sleeves, adjusting the waist, adding back darts or shortening the hem. Care is straightforward: wash at 30 degrees, use colour detergent without bleach, add a little fabric softener if desired, do not tumble dry, and iron hot or use a shirt-finishing dummy. More details are available in the care instructions. Treated well, MAKING OF DAY remains a bright, graphic long sleeve shirt with character, comfort and lasting visual impact.



GERMENS artfashion – The extravagant fashion brand since 2010

GERMENS artfashion – Art to wear

GERMENS is more than just fashion. It is an extraordinary concept that combines art, individuality and sustainability. Since it was founded in 2010, GERMENS has stood for wearable works of art – each item of clothing is created in collaboration with international artists and is absolutely unique in its design.

Why GERMENS? Because we rethink fashion. Instead of producing mass-produced goods, we manufacture exclusively to order or in small, limited editions. This reduces overproduction, conserves resources and makes every GERMENS piece something special. Our fabrics come from Saxony and are made into high-quality shirts, blouses and T-shirts in Europe – with attention to detail and precision craftsmanship.

GERMENS stands for exceptional designs that emphasize the character of their wearer. For quality that you can feel. And for an attitude that sees fashion as an expression of personality and culture.

GERMENS is fashion for people who don't want to look like everyone else – but like themselves.

Ahoi Germens No Panic – Euer Udo Lindenberg
