The Merc Tamarisk Argyle Knitted Shirt in Burgundy is a stylish take on classic retro knitwear. Combining a deep burgundy ground with bold black argyle diamonds and fine beige grid detailing, this distinctive knitted mod polo cardigan brings warmth and character to a classic geometric pattern. Crafted from 100% cotton, the Tamarisk pairs the comfort of knitted fabric with the smarter appearance of a traditional collared shirt, making it a versatile choice for those into timeless 1960s Mod style.
The argyle design is knitted directly into the fabric using an intarsia technique, creating a clean, integrated pattern that gives the shirt its distinctive character. A smart Milano knit collar and button through front keep the silhouette refined, while ribbed cuffs and hem provide a neat finish. Subtle Merc embroidery on the sleeve completes the look with understated branding.
The burgundy colourway works particularly well with tan chinos, stone trousers and dark indigo denim, while brown leather shoes or loafers reinforce its classic British character. Wear it alone as a statement knit or layer it beneath a Harrington jacket when the temperature drops.
