Long sleeve button up shirts for men – OUTBACK ESSENCE
This shirt’s design was inspired by a journey through Australia’s vast Outback. While traveling, the designer encountered a curious kangaroo near the iconic Uluru and watched a majestic wedge-tailed eagle soar above the crimson desert. These unforgettable moments are captured in the shirt’s patterns, making it a wearable piece of Storytelling.
A masterpiece inspired by Australia’s wilderness
The long sleeve casual shirt for men OUTBACK ESSENCE by GERMENS is more than just a garment – it’s a tribute to the mesmerizing beauty and cultural richness of Australia. Designed by René König, this shirt showcases stylized depictions of Australian wildlife, including kangaroos, emus, koalas, and intricate Aboriginal-inspired motifs. The earthy tones of beige, brown, red, and black perfectly complement the stunning patterns, making this shirt a standout piece for men seeking casual button down shirts with individuality.
An artistic journey into the Australian Outback
Australia’s Outback is an awe-inspiring land of contrasts, featuring endless red deserts, ancient rock formations, and unique wildlife. The OUTBACK ESSENCE shirt captures this diversity, showcasing kangaroos, emus, and reptiles like the Gould’s monitor and western bearded dragon. The design also honors iconic birds like the wedge-tailed eagle, Australia’s largest bird of prey. Each detail pays homage to the Outback’s extraordinary flora and fauna.

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?
