I ordered mine last night from the MF store. I'm not sure yet about the whole sizing up thing. Cristian at MF said I would be able to go with my normal size. We shall see I guess, I went for a large.
-
Only concern with sizing up (for me) is the length…the Large measurements look dead on, so I'm assuming I'd get the XL to account for shrinkage. I'm a consistent large in iron heart. Anyone else on here who can comment on sizing with this?
-
I couldn't find it on their site, if you don't mind could you shoot me a link?
-
I'm going to order the MF CPO today, I'm a medium normally so I should size up to a large to account for shrinkage, correct?
All reading points to a yes on that one. I went large in Appaloosa and it washed down to a medium. Would imagine the same thing happening here. That and all the readings showed that was the shrinkage on the CPO
-
Reading on different forums, sizing up is the way to go @Anesthetist ..
-
Same with 633's?
Yes.

Buy your usual Mister Freedom shirt size, these run true to size (true to MF's sizing) and shrink down to size.

Flat Head Indigo Linen Shirts, Heavyweight T-Shirts, RJB Flannels, Wallets, Bracelets, & More
Last year one of the most impressive shirts we received was a short sleeve indigo-dyed linen shirt from Flat Head. When new this shirt is dark blue and with wear and washing the linen fabric comes alive due to the indigo rope-dying technique used to dye the yarns. We've seen quite a few of these with heavy wear on them and they look unbelievable. We liked this shirt so much we've had Flat Head make us a small run of them exclusively for our shops. Only 80 shirts were made in this new run and they're availalble now at all of our stores.
We've also received a new printed heavyweight t-shirt and a wild Real Japan Blues dobby flannel shirt that has to be one of the craziest fabrics we've seen. The RJB shirt is a collectible in Japan, they do it every year in a new color and with this new iteration we thought it was time to carry the style at our shops.
Along with these new items we've received Flat Head's mid-length wallets in black and tan (with their new sterling silver ring design), woven leather and silver bracelets, feather rings, and a full restock of nearly every jean model including the popular slim tapered SE05BSP jean.

Hi Kiya, will you be collaborating with Flat Head on a new pair of jeans again anytime soon?
We are doing a Flat Head collaboration but it won't be out for about a year from now, should be out in the summer of 2015.
-
Hi Kiya- It's a bit early but has Roy given you any idea what his next build will be?

His next release is a rerun of the KS1002 jean and should be ready in two or three weeks.

Introducing Good Art Jewelry & Accessories
Every now and again a brand comes along that changes your perception of the art or craft in which they're involved in. This recently happened to us with the discovery of Good Art.
With nearly thirty years of experience in the fine jewelry and accessory field this crew of pranksters from Los Angeles create a slew of well designed pieces ranging from fine jewelry to functional accessories, all made of the finest precious metals and leathers.
All of Good Art's hardware is made from scratch in-house at their private foundry in Downtown Los Angeles with the exception of stainless steel springs for the interiors of clips and brass snap backings. Every place they can they will use sterling silver, even in places which aren't visible. There is no skimping on details at Good Art. Every piece of leather is chosen for its exact application and supplied to Good Art by the famed Wicket & Craig tannery which has been tanning the finest leathers since 1867.
Josh Warner, Good Art's founder, has a devoted fan base spanning the world and has created a line which is not only impressive in production and design, but also evolves with both his personality and the personality of his clients. We're excited to be working with such a hands-on artist which takes everything into account, at all times.
Please check the individual product pages for the full story behind the design and production of each piece.

Loved my visit to the NYC store last week, amazing range and infinitely more chill than another denim store in town.
Thomas (iirc) was very helpful and humoured my back and forth on sizing… (Should have just took the 32 mate!) Anyway, not was all lost as the second the Mrs was out the store I tried on one of the last medium IHSH-101's in the wild and the moment I tried it on I knew I could not resist.
Fully recommended and will be straight back next time I'm in town. (Top tip, if you are in that part of the world I can also recommend the Tenement Museum and some food at Sweet Chick, great stuff. Not so much the New Museum as the viewing deck is not open during the week or the juice bar at the top of the street which was awful. >:()

Thanks for coming into our NY store, and glad you were able to meet Thomas, he's great. We try and create a comfortable environment where you can come in and just hang out and see the product, we love talking about the items we sell as much as we love selling them.

The 3sixteen+ 32BSP Shadow Selvedge - Straight Tapered
One of our best selling jean fits at Self Edge is 3sixteen+'s 30BSP. This jean is designed to be a straight leg jean above the knee with a slim cut jean's taper and leg opening. It's a combination of a straight leg jean and a tapered jean for the guy that wants (or needs) room in the upper block but also wants a small leg opening.
3sixteen+ have taken this fit and added their Shadow Selvedge denim to it and released it as the 32BSP. This fabric has an indigo warp and black weft and is stitched together with tonal threads. When new the jean looks like a dark indigo denim and with time will lighten with regular wear with a super high contrast fade. The patch artwork has been redone by Portland's Tronfucious The Grape God 444.
The new 32BSP jean along with a full restock of all 3sixteen and 3sixteen+ jeans and belts have arrived at all of our stores and in our online store.

Saw both the 32BSP and Good Art Jewelry at the Portland store earlier this week. The weight of that bracelet and the clasp was out of this world! Shout out to Tyler for giving me a tour on the premise and sizing advice.
-
Another shout out to Thomas - when I visited for the first time in August he treated me like an old friend. And he's a good salesman too, sold me an ultra-heavy western (sweatshirt) on a 90 degree day while the AC was not working! And some Sugar Canes too, but who's counting? Weather is cooling off and I can't wait to test drive the shirt. I wish I had the opportunity to visit the stores and see the goods in-person more often.
