Comfortable & warm: The Wool Pullover
Read moreIntroducing The Wool Pullover, MR MARVIS' ultimate wear-everywhere pullover designed to keep you comfortable and stylish throughout the season. This mid-weight knit strikes the perfect balance between casual and cosy, making it a versatile addition to your wardrobe.
The Wool Pullover is made from wool with a soft hand, 50% of which is recycled. MR MARVIS' signature touches elevate this cosy men's layering piece, with features such as a ribbed collar and cuffs, an engraved metal brand detail on the left seam near the waistband, and the dark blue tab label.
The Wool Pullover comes in a palette of versatile colourways ranging from the light blue Avenues and beige Baristas, to the bright red Chillies and dark blue Deeps. Designed as the ultimate men's layering knitwear, The Wool Pullover goes perfectly with our selection of sophisticated tops, such as our soft Cotton Shirt or sturdy Denim Shirt. Looking for a complete MR MARVIS outfit? Pair The Wool Pullover with our ribbed and dapper Cords, or The Coolerdays for the colder days of the year.
Layer up with our shirt jackets
Read moreShackets, also known as shirt jackets or overshirts, are a must-have in every man's wardrobe. Not quite a shirt, not quite a jacket, but the perfect mix of both. These versatile pieces are your best companion when the weather can't make up its mind.
At MR MARVIS, we're all about versatile wardrobe foundations. That's why we decided it was time to introduce not just one, but two stylish shirt jackets to our own lineup: The Wool Zip Shacket, a casual design with a zipped front that's made from boiled wool, and The Shacket, made from organic cotton twill with a timeless plaid pattern and a buttoned front.
So when do you wear these shirt-jacket hybrids, exactly? Shackets are ideal for those transitional months, but they're not exclusively designed for autumn or spring. As the weather cools down, you can also throw an overshirt over a cosy pullover and wear it under a heavier coat: a clever way to add warmth without compromising style.
When it comes to styling a shacket, the options are endless. Want to keep it casual? Wear it over a Heavy Tee, add your favourite Jeans, and slip into stylish Sneakers. For a dressier look, layer your shirt jacket over a classic Cotton Shirt and toss on some chinos, like The Coolerdays.
The Shacket is available in three timeless checkered colourways: blue Kings Arms, burgundy Red Lions and green Fox & Hounds. The Wool Zip Shacket arrives in classic beige Baristas, light grey Oysters and dark blue Cosmics this season.

New: The Heavy Classics
Read moreOpt for a rugged sophistication this season with The Heavy Classics. Our new cold-weather trousers are inspired by their summery cousins, The Classic Chinos, and feature an extended waistband and front pleats. Their wider fit and a slightly lower rise ensure a contemporary look and feel.
The heavier fabric makes these trousers perfectly suited for the colder months of the year. The Heavy Classics are cut from twill with a pronounced ridged texture, also known as cavalry twill. In line with our B Corp identity, we opted for a fabric woven from 100% organic cotton.
Wear them to the office with a sophisticated shirt, like our Oxford Shirt.
From grey Newmans to dark blue Deeps, The Heavy Classics come in a range of refined colours, handpicked to reinvigorate your looks this season.
Meet the ultimate loungewear: The Lazies
Read moreWith hanging by the fireplace on the to-do list during our winter escapes, we decided it was time to introduce luxe loungewear. We call them The Lazies, the ultimate trousers for lazier days. Designed with a relaxed fit and an elasticated waistband with drawstrings, they’re very comfortable when worn while lounging on the sofa – trust us on this, because we have extensively tested them.
Made from soft 100% organic cotton with a herringbone weave and a brushed finish, The Lazies bring classic MR MARVIS sophistication to any men's loungewear ensemble. Unwind in style and comfort with these flannel lounge trousers.
The Lazies come in three plaid options with a retro feel, and three solid colours: dark blue Cosmics, burgundy Reserves and dark green Lakes.
Introducing The Five-pockets: Denim in Full Colour
Read moreLove the fit of The Jeans, but wish they were available in MR MARVIS' classic tasteful colourways? Consider your wish fulfilled with The Five-pockets, our coloured denim trousers. Just like their cousins, these timeless trousers have tapered legs. The Five-pockets are made from organic cotton, and we've added a hint of stretch for extra comfort.
The Five-pockets have a classic five-pocket design – it's in the name after all – with an iconic coin pocket, a regular waistband with belt loops, and a branded MR MARVIS faux leather patch on the back. A logo-engraved front button and metal rivets round off these coloured denim trousers.
From deep burgundy Reserves to beige Gazettes and green Defenders to deep blue Cosmics, The Five-pockets are available in nine shades that can be worn year-round. Take your denim collection up a notch with MR MARVIS' full-colour denim trousers.
New: The Easy Shirt
Read moreIntroducing our latest shirt: The Easy Shirt. Crafted from a stretchy interlock jersey fabric and designed with a regular fit, this shirt is a perfect blend of comfort and style. Whether you're heading to the office or have a weekend brunch on the cards, The Easy Shirt adapts effortlessly to any occasion. One thoughtful feature of The Easy Shirt is the hidden button-down collar, which offers a clean, polished look. This also makes this comfortable jersey shirt the perfect travel companion.
Our Easy Shirt is made from 100% organic cotton and GOTS-certified, meaning that The Easy Shirt meets high standards for environmental and social responsibility. The interlock jersey fabric is one you may know from our popular Easies and our comfortable Easy Sweater: it’s naturally stretchy, easy to care for and resilient with a good drape. In sum, a jersey shirt is the perfect addition to your collection of wardrobe classics.
Our comfortable shirt arrives in five versatile colours: white Wimbledons, burgundy Reserves, dark blue Deeps, light blue Avenues and dark green Fairways. We suggest you click the “add to cart” button soon because we only have a limited number of these interlock jersey men’s shirts available.

Protect Your Garments, Protect the Ocean
Read moreMR MARVIS has partnered with Guppyfriend to provide an environmentally preferred solution: the Guppyfriend washing bag. These single-sheet (and therefore non-shedding) polyester bags filter up to 90% of microplastic pollution during the washing cycle, vastly reducing potential waste. As an added benefit, the Guppyfriend washing bags also provide significant protection against abrasion, extending the lifespan of your delicate garments and shielding them from pilling.
But, why stop at just preventing plastic pollution? To maximise our impact, all profits from Guppyfriend bags sold by MR MARVIS will go towards coastal cleanup projects in Cambodia facilitated by our partner, Sumthing.
We Are – And Have Always Been – Fur-Free
Read moreBut now it's official too! Because MR MARVIS has joined the Fur Free Retailer programme. The Fur Free Retailer programme is an international initiative of the Fur Free Alliance, a coalition of more than 50 of the world's leading wildlife and environmental protection organisations. The programme encourages companies to go fur-free and provides consumers with accurate information about each retailer's fur policy. This enables customers to make informed choices when shopping.
The fur-free pledge
Despite never incorporating real fur into our collections at MR MARVIS, we have chosen to join the pledge. Our decision extends beyond our brand alone; we hope to encourage other retailers to also adopt a fur-free policy.
Animal welfare policy
We are incorporating an Animal Welfare policy into our Supplier Code of Conduct. Currently, our Code of Conduct sets out clear expectations for fair wages, safe working conditions, and environmental stewardship. As we strive to be a responsible company that ensures ethical and fair practices for all parties, including wildlife, we aim to implement a concrete Animal Welfare Policy by the end of the year. As part of our research, we concluded that the standards set by the Fur Free Retailer programme coincide with our own values.
Be Marvellous, B Corp: our 2023 Action Report
Read moreSince March 2023, MR MARVIS has been the largest Dutch clothing brand with the B Corp Certification. As a B Corp, MR MARVIS is counted among businesses spearheading a global movement for an inclusive, equitable and regenerative economy. As part of our B Corp identity, we're committed to publishing an Action Report every year. In this report, you can read everything you need to know about our efforts and plans concerning sustainability and social responsibility. You can find the full report via the link below. To give you a sneak peek, here are some highlights that are shared in the report:
- In 2023, 21,913 garments were reconditioned and 1,117 were repaired, preventing them from going to waste.
- With Justdiggit we've set a target to regreen 1,460 hectares in Tanzania.
- In 2023, we donated €116,901 to charities.
- By switching to organic cotton for The Longs, we saved 46 tons of CO2. This equals 46 hot air balloons.
For those who missed the memo: what is B Corp again?
B Corps (short for Benefit Corporations) are commercial companies that meet high standards of conscious decision-making. B Corps commit to public transparency and legal accountability to balance profit with purpose for people and the planet. To become a Certified B Corporation, a company has to do the so-called B Impact Assessment (BIA). This is an elaborate questionnaire that assesses a company on five impact areas: Governance, Customers, Workers, Community and Environment. It sounds simpler than it actually is: it requires a certain type of company DNA and – in our case – more than two years of preparation to take the right steps. Companies need to score at least 80 points (out of the total 200) to become a Certified B Corp. In the Netherlands, the average score is 83.7 points. MR MARVIS scored 101.7 on the B Impact Assessment. A score to be proud of.
To keep the B Corp status, companies must recertify every three years. Since we certified in 2023, 2026 will be our moment of truth again. That may seem far away, but we are ambitious and given the changes we're looking to implement, it's really just around the corner. To make these changes happen, we've thought out 50 projects to undertake in 2024. Some initiatives are already in the making: for example establishing a Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (JEDI) committee, collaborating with other like-minded B Corps from the fashion industry to tackle industry challenges together and developing a MR MARVIS recycling program.
