Right in the heart of Werkstadt Zürich – where urban production, craftsmanship, and sustainability come together – a new kind of garment is being created. One that’s more than just a T-shirt. It’s a promise: to the future, to circularity, and to a new way of thinking about fashion. This is the Mono Shirt by NEUMÜHLE.

For years, the Zurich-based label has been asking a crucial question: how can clothing be part of the solution rather than the problem? With the Mono Shirt, NEUMÜHLE is taking that vision one step further. Made from a single material, locally produced, and fully recyclable, the Mono Shirt is a bold move towards a truly circular textile future. No blends, no waste – just clarity, quality, and responsibility.

The concept was born out of an innovation project supported by Innosuisse. From that came the Mono Vest – a fully recyclable gilet designed for circularity. Now, the same design principles have been translated into a wearable everyday essential: a minimalist T-shirt with maximum impact.

Promote the circular economy and support the project

To bring this product to life, NEUMÜHLE has launched a crowdfunding campaign on wemakeit. Backers not only get early access at a special price – they also become part of a community pushing boundaries in circular design and local textile production.

Businesses are also invited to join the movement, for example by gifting sustainable employee boxes or by partnering in shaping a new kind of locally rooted textile economy.

The Mono Shirt embodies the spirit of Werkstadt Zürich: mindful use of resources, proximity to production, and innovation within existing structures. It may look simple – but it represents a bold shift toward a circular, regenerative fashion system.
