Hmm maybe impractical isn't the best description, but instead impractical for me. Currently, I don't have a nice jacket for rainy/"crappy" weather (even though I love cold weather!) and I think it would just make way more sense from a utility perspective for me to pick up something that covers that base first and foremost.
I already have a few jackets for non-rainy days that I love and keep me warm enough. Got to make sure that I'm not buying too many things and wear everything I got you know?
That being said, I seriously love the drover and still might pick it up if I get the funds somehow because it truly is a work of art. Probably my most favorite looking jacket of all time.

Yes, a really nice leather jacket is in my very long term plans….. But I love the Himel heron so I would probably go with that. It will definitely have to wait at least a year or two
but that's okay, I got plenty of time....Also, on the topic of mister freedom, I'm not really sure what it is but I think MF might be my favorite brand. Recently I've found myself just looking for really unique and interesting fabrics/patterns and MF just fits the bill so well....

x-post from BR thread MF related
How is the denim on those MFs? Which jean is it?
mclaincausey, this is the Cali lot 44 (the one with cinch back) from the American sportswear NOS collection (first cali lot 54 is without cinch). there will be a lot 64 coming in this fall sportsman collection. Those are pure straight fits with quite a leg opening. I like that.
denim is cool, 35 diff fabrics were used
of course NOS, cone mills US produced 12 oz. mine is marked "PXUV". You will find some info on MF page or in Christophe's blog as well as in this link -

Never thought I'd say I love a cardigan…
-
It looks even more killer I think than the picture. Those buttons look lighter than other product shots, that may be a prototype.
-
Very interested in getting the indigo cardigan….but what color buttons does it actually come with? All the different pictures have different buttons, lol.
-
specs taken from MF page. Christophe probably switched the buttons from the natural to his indigo one
or it seems they come either or but I am sure you can get what you like when emailing them- Wool Jersey body and sleeves, ribbed end knit.
- One piece body wrap knit (no side seams).
- Milanese knit button placket.
- Wide wrist knit cuffs for roll-up.
- Fold over double layer pockets.
- Blind stitched bottom hem, folded end knit.
- Natural Corozo buttons, aka vegetable ivory or coconut wood.
-
My guess is you need to call them about the buttons, they could be almost any shade based on that description. As mentioned, I'd want the dark ones, and it should be exactly as you want it for that kind of cheddar.
-
One closeup pic shows blue buttons too…

-
I believe davito's right on about the blue buttoned one being a sample. In the description for the cardigan Christophe mentions that the buttons and tag were sewn on after the dying process so as to maintain their natural color.
Really thinking about trying to grab one of these in natural…
-
Road Champs, Takeshi triple leather soles, Cat's Paw heels.
-
Unreal boots MCC. They look stellar.
-
Thanks man, I love em. The fact that I resisted my beloved new Vibergs this morning is testament to them.

Alright this question might seem silly but….how do the road champs feel on feet? Keep in mind I literally only have experience with vans and I've never even tried on a boot. I'm wondering if they're going to be annoyingly heavy/bulky walking around...
