MISTER FREEDOM

One thing that doesn't cost anything extra (or perhaps its worked into the price of MFwear) are COOL tags and bags. Here's a few I've managed to keep around over the years:

[ThisSunday]

Really like that Off-Duty CPO ThisSunday

Does it slim in around the stomach area?

I got the Midnight CPO and am loving it, will post some pics when I get some more wear on it. I went with the XL and p to p is just a tad over 23", and measured across the stomach area it's like 21.5".

Just wondering if most of the MF CPO shirts taper like that?

I've got a little too much extra around the stomach right now... but I love this shirt so much I have no choice but to loose some weight so it isn't so snug around the stomach!

Thanks for any info

Pretty much all of the MF shirts fit the same. They are relatively slim.

Aw, I never got a bag But, I have about ten tags now...

Edit: Thanks for the compliments on the pea coat, everyone. I've really enjoyed wearing it!

The benefit of purchasing at the LA store--they dropped my new vest in the bag:

What's the watch? Do you work @ Sea World?

[rnrswitch]

Ahhh man. The MF shop and Rising Sun are like the two coolest denim joints in LA. So much style in both of them. The folks at the MF shop are cool as all hell as well.

[bernielike]

What's the watch? Do you work @ Sea World?

Looks like an IWC 3717 maybe?

No Seaworld, just surfing. Wouldn't mind a job there though.

He also bought lvc 1955s but didn't bother to read any of the great advice in the lvc thread and bought the wrong size.

MFSC Spring 2011 “Les APACHESâ€

The Paris of the Belle Époque (1900s) saw the emergence of a certain type of street outcasts. They lived in secret dens in the seedy and dimmed outskirts of the City of Lights, abhorred honest labor, hunted the Faubourgs and Quartier de Halles, and danced in local Guinguettes and dives, decked out in flamboyant outfits.

They were called Les Apaches…

Issued from the French lower working class, with a lack of education and absence of Future, they regrouped in loosely organized neighborhood gangs. Abiding by their own hoodlum code of honor, they woke up late, spoke the obscure slang Jare, and wore specific flashy clothes. Their dandy accoutrement combined with intimidating attitudes imposed both respect and fear from the Parisians and their police.

For 30 years, Paris’ Apaches gangs marked their territories by terrorizing honest bourgeois citizens, committing petty larceny, pimping and street fighting their lives away. For those who had ducked the knife and the bullet that bared their name or the ravage of the “Grande Guerre†(WW1), it was the inevitable outcome of Biribi or the Bagne de Cayenne.

In the 1920’s one a many high society dame was spotted mingling with charismatic Apache groups in local Java dance halls, letting her hair down in a famous Dance Apache, immortalized later by Hollywood (“Charlie Chan in Parisâ€, 1935) and several Broadway Shows. The French movie Casque d’Or (1953) relates a true story of a famous Apache event that took place in 1905.

Bourgeois newspapers of the period and universal fascination with the underworld turned the reign of the Apaches into a mix of myth and imagery that will forever mark the Paris of the 1900s to 1930s…

These are the premises and backdrop of the MISTER FREEDOM® x SUGAR CANE Spring 2011 Collection.

Influenced by early French haberdashery and work clothes, European tailoring and Old World silhouettes, this new venture is a departure from the “Americana†inspiration of previous seasons. After extensive research and development we turned a corner onto an unfamiliar avenue (Rue de la Grande Truanderie?) to offer this new look of the Old World…

The collection includes:

* Fancy shirting in printed calico fabrics, cotton jacquard, indigo “Métis†(cotton/linen weave) and pastel color dyed cotton pique.

* French workman outfits in cotton/linen indigo “Métis†twill and indigo ticking.

* Fancy city clothes in intricately woven stripe cotton fabrics.

More to come….

just realized those photos were huge...sorry

[tweeds]

^ Beautiful fabrics, and a surprising departure! The chemise bleu villette looks particularly enticing.

[Happy Hooligan]

I think I might buy my first piece of MF this year. I will even buy it at their store...

[Christmas In A Submarine.]

the workman's coat and the calico shirt look incredible... this will be interesting.

Mulholland Jacket

[TLCA]

outfit looks sick^^^ jacket looks awesome

[glimmertwins]

Hmmmm - seems like this is going to be one of those collections that you'll really need to see the fit to see if it works for you. I'm holding final judgment based on the first fit pics and more detailed shots but I'll say at this point I'm mildly interested in what's currently shown but like the direction he's heading.
