While others were busy making excuses, we were busy making moves.

2025 was turbulent. It had an extra dose of turbo.

We created a dirndl-style sweater with Marina Hoermanseder and Almdudler, supported a Kickstarter campaign with Get Out Sneakers, and when karriere.at said, "We want merch made in the EU," our answer was: "You want it, you got it."

In 2025, we produced high-quality merch for 287 clients.

2025 was a scam. But we took it by the collar.


We received the largest order in the history of Das Merch and produced 25,000 shirts—only to realize the order was a fraud. Thanks to our incredible community, we were able to sell those shirts to you at a special price. We want to say thank you for that.

Our largest (legitimate) order was €53,987.50.

In 2025, we grew. Beyond our limits.

We didn’t just expand our product range and win new clients; our team grew, too. Alongside Klaus, we expanded our leadership team with Philipp as Head of Account Management and Bianca as Head of Marketing.

In 2025, we saw a nearly 50% increase in revenue compared to the previous year.

In 2025, we reached new heights. With Lufthansa.

For the airline’s new location opening in Portugal, we had the honor of delivering the matching merch—produced in Portugal, of course.

In 2025, we secured jobs in the EU. With the AMS.

We supported a major campaign for the Public Employment Service (AMS), acting not just as a producer but as a logistics partner. We ensured that all products arrived at their respective locations right on time.

In 2025, we went on a World Tour. With Benedikt Mitmannsgruber.

From Madison Square Garden in New York to the local tavern in Langschlag. We produced the tour merch for the cabaret artist. And we laughed a lot.

In 2025, we played it safe. With DEVK.

We implemented a complete design collection in various colors for the insurance provider.

In 2025, we picked up the pace. With sneakers for Tabakfabrik Linz.

And with our new Click & Ship system, which allows us to produce and deliver smaller orders significantly faster.

In 2025, an average of 433 products were purchased per order.

For 2025, we want to say thank you.

Thank you to all our clients for your trust. Thank you to the team in Linz for your incredible performance—every single day. Thank you to all our partners across the EU. And thank you to you. For your interest in our mission to make merch better and more sustainable.

Let’s turn your brand into a "Lovebrand" in 2026. We look forward to your inquiry.

FAQ

What shipping options are available to me?

We offer various shipping options, from standard to express. Depending on your location and the urgency of your order, we can arrange the best shipping solution for you. Delivery to several locations is also possible.

How can I get personalized samples for our products?

For orders of 500 pieces or more, we will create a sample (for a fee) on request after the order has been placed. For small orders, we can send you a package with various customer projects. You can easily book this package by scrolling down and clicking "Order sample".

What does sustainable production mean at Das Merch.?

Sustainability is the core of our brand. We use materials from ethically responsible sources almost exclusively (more than 95% of all orders) and work with production partners who are committed to environmentally friendly practices. In addition to sustainable materials, all textiles are produced in the EU. We have a close relationship with our production partners and employ a tailor shop with around 10 employees in Fafe, Portugal. In addition, we only work with GOTS-certified printing companies. If you want to know more, check out our sustainability page.

Can I reorder my merchandise exactly the same even after a long period of time?

Since we manufacture the products directly and do not use blanks from other brands, we can still produce your desired product after several years. Should a material or accessory no longer be available from one of our production partners for any reason, we will find an individual solution for you with our team in Portugal.

What design options does Das Merch. have?

Feel free to try out our configurator to see how your design looks best on the various products. However, if you have any specific questions, feel free to contact our team.

How can I get an offer for my merchandise?

The fastest way is through our configurator. Live pricing is integrated there, so you can see how the price changes with every design change. If you need a written offer, please contact us using the contact form.

What is the minimum order quantity (MOQs)?

Our minimum order quantities start at 50 pieces per design. This means that you can order a t-shirt or hoodie in different sizes, but you must buy 50 pieces of the same T-shirt in the same color with the same design. For socks, we have a minimum quantity of 300 pairs per size range (e.g. 39-42 or 43-46). Take a look at our configurator, there you can see exactly how much your design will cost.

How long does it take on average for my order to be delivered?

Delivery times vary depending on product type and order quantity. We can deliver some products such as t-shirts and hoodies in our standard colors in around 4 weeks, but in general, you should always plan for 8 weeks. For specific time estimates depending on your order, please contact our customer service.
