I like the website! I think it has a certain charm to it.

[mclaincausey]

I guess it is retro

Yeah, I know it'll take some serious abuse to get the boots to that level, but damn. I like the charm and the authentic way the products are displayed. It's hit or miss for me too (glad I'm not the only one). I take pieces at face value and not really as a period piece. The natural henley that's getting ready to drop is a must have IMO.

@Chris:

Takes a long time to get to that from this:

Personally, I rarely wore them, since I didn't like the look of dark denim from waist to toe.  Ended up selling them about a year ago.

I was a little worried, but after picking up IH beige cords and olive 705's I figured why not. I agree about the denim head to toe. Thanks for posting pics.

It's straight up 100% wordpress aka blogging software. Still some of the most popular blogging software on the market, but it's not intended for the usage it has. I hate wordpress after having developed websites on the software for years. Really really dodgy stuff.

That said I think they've done a good job to develop any kind of function web shop/site that allows online sales to take place. The software they've used they've gone through hard-yards to allow online sales at all to this point.

Dito. Wearing them to work often gets me odd looks but no one's had the balls to ask why I'm wearing early 1900's inspired workwear clothing into the office :). I like the look, materials, and it often fits well, just different.

I don't mind the personal touch of the orders ONE BIT!  Sorry I did sound judgmental there but it's a pleasure to deal with MF!

[Snowy]

^Yeah I agree. Had nothing but pleasant interactions with the guys on the e-mail. Added overhead/time on their side, but the effort's been appreciated.

[summ3rhays]

Agreed, Cristian has been great to work with on the past orders. He took the time to throw in his opinion on some of the up coming pieces that he's seen IRL. Very conversational rather than transactional.

Does anybody know where to get their utility braces? I've looked all over and can't even find them, other than some blog pictures.

[davito]

Did you contacted MF directly as well JSJ? Maybe they have some left

[mclaincausey]

Lofgren has some nice braces on rakuten as well

[lamdog123]

I really like the color on the sage MF tshirt.

@summ3rhays:

MBB // Alden // MF

[Snowy]

Looks real interesting, Sage sounds spot on.  May have to pick one up for summer, it's good/light weight, right?

[mclaincausey]

Same material as the skivvy, so yes

[Snowy]

^Excellent, thank you.

[mclaincausey]

No problem meng. Mine are taking forever to get here!

[tatmantall]

Same here… Patiently waiting, can't believe how long its taken for them to come this time though
