@Dr_Heech boom!

Did you go OW or raw? Looking forward to the fit pics when they come round

Hi mate l went with raw and it'll be a while before they hit water but when they do I'll sort some out 👍

[Broark]

Also got my pair recently, planning to do the same as Doc and wait a bit. Probably once it starts to cool off.
But I might be tempted to start wearing them sooner.

[srudy]

Got mine from Hoosier, one wash and have already started wearing mine, just a few days. I couldn’t resist! 

[shredwin_206]

Gave the 1922 a hot soak this morning. 
Extremely happy with the fit. Thanks again Sir @Duke Mantee!

Gave my 507RB a wash the other day. This jacket gets some good wear as a gardening layer and has seen its fair share of spills at the skatepark. Don’t see this specific jacket posted much so thought I’d share.

A few Freewheelers (Ironalls chambray and Lot 102, Chopper Builder shorts) and a Star of Hollywood arrived today from our man Seiichiro

@MJF9 what’s the specs on the shorts? I’ve been hunting for a good pair of proper shorter length shorts…

[MJF9]

@shredwin_206 only very quickly tried them on and they're a good 'proper' length.  Nice shorts... happy with them.  Double pockets each side so plenty of places to lose stuff!!  The sizing is a bit smaller than normal - I'm usually W34 but picked a W36 as I prefer shorts bigger anyhow, plus they have fastener buttons to bring them in.  Here's a link with some deets and pics mate.  I'll try get some photos up soon - though how much leg I show is not clear at this stage .  Oh and I saw Hoosier posted measurements on IG too so check that out too pal.

Been wearing this one almost daily since I got it.

1942 type 1

[fabes]

Slight break from the oppressive heat, broke out the 42s. Really enjoy this cut.

Just received the Longshoreman in wabash from Seiichiro-san. I really like this cut, and I've been looking for nice wabash pants. Right now, it's way too hot to wear long pants in Seattle. Soon though...

Delivery from @Duke Mantee arrived   
PCT shorts    
s601xx with painted arcs   
1937 with stitched arcs 

[vlad_III]

nice pairs with the arcs. I thought you just started a 20s pair. 

[shredwin_206]

@vlad_III you’re correct. I will focus on the 1922 until they’re well worn or need repairs. Then rotate in one of these new pairs

Nice to see Duke's legacy being carried forward. You have three really nice pairs, hope you don't Shred them up too quickly 😅

I’m in the market for a pair of sidewinder dark green shorts, size 34. Does anyone have a lead for a retailer that ships to USA? 
 

I found a pair at Mirrorball, but I could not navigate the Japanese language checkout. 

[MJF9]

For Mirrorball, they are good on Instagram or email - [email protected]

The go-to for many of us here is Hoosier who you can transact with through Instagram

Both will take PayPal

Both ship internationally

Good luck!

[FurnitureMaker]

@MJF9

Thanks for the suggestion. Mirrorball were very quick in replying and got me sorted out. 
 

Now I get to see what all this Freewheelers fuss is about!

[mstax]

I just Googled those shorts. Japanese price 25.300 yen which would be around 150 euro. I can also buy them from Son of a Stag for only 400 euro. Granted, no additional taxes and free shipping but what is up with that markup????

Profiteering.

Does anyone know if the Jesse western shirt is a regular production run? Or Freewheelers just makes it here and there when the mood hits?

[julian-wolf]

Others’ll know better, but as far as I’m aware the Neil Cassidy is the only shirt that any of the Freewheelers brands consistently makes every year

Wear your shit hard and wash it often 

[MJF9]

601 XXC, 1937 

I've been wearing these for about 7 months as my main jeans - guess it probably levels out at 3-4 times per week.  Never washed them in that time until today...

Before 40C wash (front only, nothing to see around here :)) 

... and after wash
