Button-up Shirt Long Sleeve COBRA
Story about the Shirt
Deep in the jungle, where the cobra reigns as the silent king, there was once a fearless warrior whose courage and elegance were as impressive as his deadly precision. In the darkness of the night, surrounded by the sounds of wild life, he wore a shirt as unique as himself. The "COBRA" shirt reflected the mesmerizing beauty and deadly danger of the reptile, and thus the warrior became legendary not only for his deeds but also for his style. Today, the GERMENS shirt "COBRA" symbolizes this legend. It represents not only style and bravery but also an undeniable uniqueness that lends every wearer an aura of elegance and strength.
Advantages of the Cotton Fabric
The COBRA shirt is made of 100% high-quality cotton, manufactured in Germany. Cotton is known for its excellent wearing properties: it is breathable, skin-friendly, and absorbs moisture, helping to prevent unpleasant odors. This makes the shirt ideal for everyday wear, as it stays fresh even after long days. Moreover, cotton is a natural material that feels comfortable against the skin, making it particularly suitable for people with sensitive skin. Thanks to its durability, the shirt retains its shape and color even after many washes, making it a long-lasting companion.
Special Product Features
The "COBRA" shirt stands out with the exclusive GERMENS collar notch, which gives the shirt a striking look. The diagonal cuffs are another highlight: they are often color-contrasted, adding a special touch when worn folded. The sturdy buttons are sewn with a stem, increasing their durability and preventing them from coming loose. The Kent collar of the shirt is equipped with removable stainless steel collar stays, ensuring a perfect collar shape. The precise seams with 7 to 8 stitches per centimeter guarantee lasting quality and durability.
Unique Design and Craftsmanship
The shirt’s design, created by the renowned artist Gregor-T.Kozik, transforms each shirt into a work of art. The extraordinary surface designs follow the shirt's cut, giving it a distinctive extravagance. Unlike most other colorful shirts, GERMENS shirts appear unique and exclusive due to this attention to detail.
A distinctive feature of GERMENS shirts is the limitation of each design to only 99 pieces, enhancing their exclusivity and making them rare collector's items.
The shirt is available in 10 sizes, from XS to 6XL. New customers are especially encouraged to use the Try-on service, which allows them to try on three different sizes at home to find the perfect fit. This ensures that the fit remains consistent when reordering.
If the shirt does not fit perfectly after trying it on, GERMENS offers a Modification service, where, for example, sleeves can be shortened or the waist can be widened. This service is particularly practical as it ensures the shirt can be customized to the wearer’s individual needs.
Care and Availability
Caring for the shirt is simple: it is easy to wash, the colors remain vibrant even after many washes, and the shirt is easy to iron. More detailed care instructions can be found here.
Shirts that are not in stock are produced to order. The delivery time for these shirts can be several weeks. However, those in need of an immediate purchase can check the immediately available products.
About GERMENS
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 emphasise the character of the 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.

What is special about GERMENS?
extravagant artist designs
René Koenig and numerous external artists create their designs directly on special templates that correspond exactly to the cuts of GERMENS clothing. The result is a surface design that fits perfectly on every item of clothing – an interplay of art and fashion in perfect form.
Exclusive designs - printed to fit perfectly
GERMENS only uses its own designs, which are only available here. For each garment – in every size from XS to 6XL – the pattern pieces are printed individually and accurately on high-quality cotton fabric.
The fabric is then finished so that the colours remain permanently brilliant, the fabric is washable, suitable for everyday use and comfortable to wear – without any unpleasant odours.
Careful cutting by hand
GERMENS only produces what has actually been ordered. This is very sustainable and ensures lasting value. After printing, the fabrics are cut to size – in the traditional way, by hand. The skilled worker is visually orientated to the design and cuts each piece individually. The result is a perfect fit in which art and cut interact perfectly.
Careful manufacture in the factory
After cutting, the many individual pieces are sewn together in a Polish family business with great care and many years of experience. High-quality finishing details – such as finely stitched edges or buttons with handles – and fine fabrics guarantee that every GERMENS garment will give you long-lasting pleasure.Who wears GERMENS?
