      Had a request for some Tonkinoise pics. Sorry for the bathroom pics, it is already dark out. As you can see the collar is actually pretty low key. The fit is very workwear/military inspired and a bit antifit. I imagine it will shrink a little more with a warm wash. The construction is really amazing as is the fabric and buttons. It really is a lovely shirt.

      Tucked (I promise I don't have that gut):

      I hope this helps! @browniemcghee

        Anyone eyeballing that new wabash workman???  Mighty tempting.

        Here are some pics from my workday - topsiders and gunslinger jumper… Viberg boots.

          Solid look Bluegrass! I definitely like the look of the wabash but I also like the denim workman with the OD stitching.

            I'm definitely thinking about picking up the wabash, since I don't own any wabash fabric.
            I don't have much experience with MF shirting outside my Appaloosa, so I'm assuming I'd be safe with the XXL and then shrinking it.

              ^be careful, you are smaller than me and most Sportsman XLs drown me in fabric.. I'd send Cristian an email and get his take!

                With that being said, all the pre-2011 XLs were too snug on me - I can't win with MF shirting…

                  Yeah I was jumping to conclusions a little based on the size chart, the post rinse XL has a chest of 22.75 which sounds a little on the slim side. I'm just not sure how the rest of the shirt is cut from the chest down, if it tapers much or not. Need some extra space for my belly. 😉
                  If anyone has any advice on how MF workshirts compare to Iron Heart workshirts I'd be interested in hearing it!
                  I'll probably shoot Christian an email too. There's also a new shop here that started carrying MF, so I'll see if they're getting the shirt and then I could actually try it on.

                    I'm XXXL in IH and XXL in MF - but MF sizing is less consistent than IH.  Some of my MF shirts are more "generously cut" than others, and the amount of shrinkage varies.  I agree sizing MF gear requires more careful study.  For example I got a map shirt that looked like a bath robe pre-soak and the amount of shrinkage from a cold soak was quite remarkable.  But my Sportsman shirts have not shrunk much at all from cold soak/hang dry. I shoot for 24-25" chest and ~20" shoulders and hope for the best on other measures which usually work out OK if I get the shoulders/chest right.

                      I've been opting for XXL in most IH shirts (mainly with the heavier flannels, always nice to have some extra room).
                      It's just weird because I can pull of a large in the MF and IH tees, but tees do have a tendency to stretch a little.
                      I went for a XXL in the Appaloosa since the cut on it is a bit more trim. I'll see what Christian says, plus I could always exchange if it was too small or too big.

                        I just saw the final wabash shirts last week and they came out looking really good.  We ordered the wabash and the new super dark appaloosa for the stores, can't wait to get them in. 
                        Also, if you make it into SEMX, we'll be getting the entire Mister Freedom beach collection of shorts, swim trunks, t-shirts, etc..

                          Those are the two shirts I've been looking forward to the most from Mister Freedom this spring/summer.
                          I'd love to make it down to SEMX this summer, we'll see what's in the cards.

                            @Broark - where in Austin is MF gonna be stocked?  @FormulaPfaff might need to take more frequent trips to Austin!

                              @Appfaff Revival Cycles just opened a shop in the last couple months in the new South Congress Hotel and they're carrying some MF stuff. I went and checked it out and the selection was fairly limited, but they were excited to be carrying the line. Hopefully they have some S/S16 stuff coming in.

                                  @Appfaff Wabash mister freedom shirt? I'm gonna have to seriously consider that.

                                  Make it heavier.

                                      Christian got back to me and said based off my Appaloosa sizing I should go with a XXL in the wabash as well.
                                      I'll likely place my order soon!

                                        Nice news to hear @Broark  - I checked out the sizing for it as well and it does appear to run much smaller than the Sportsman shirts - maybe workman shirts are my answer!

                                          I think I'm going to go for it tomorrow morning, I should be saving for some boots but I really want some wabash…

                                            Can't go wrong with some wabby!  The understated stitching is what sells me on the MF version. Lo profile cool as Christophe does so well!  Let us know how it shrinks, my brother and I may go for matching ones on this as we both also have the SH-62 haha
