30% off is excellent.
Have my eyes on the Workman Wabash and/or the Indigo Metis. They are both excluded :(.
Garrison shirt for $230 is an excellent deal, how about the Tonkinoise Shirt? -

Garrison shirt for $230 is an excellent deal, how about the Tonkinoise Shirt?I have the Tonkinoise and it is good but it is a bit of a vintage military fit (not much taper and full sleeves). I thought about sizing down but I think it would have looked really odd. The Buzz Rickson chambray is awesome though with lots of character. Here is mine:

If I bought it all over again, I would have bought the denim and used it as a shacket.

If so, in the same size? Is it because the fit is a bit generous? Still sitting on the fence between the BR and the Denim version of this shirt.

Fit on the tonkinoise isn't particularly generous. I have the denim version in my regular size and it fits somewhat slim. The length of the shirt is a bit more cropped than some of MF's other shirts. If you are planning on wearing as a shacked it would definitely be a size up piece. I'm a bit long in the arms for my size so the sleeves are about as short as I could go as well.

Guys with the Skipper jacket, how warm is it? And how's the fit, generous of small?
Looking for a somewhat lighter jacket that I can use when it rains, everything I currently have is too heavy.It's really not that warm of a jacket, more of a spring piece. Mine is a 40 and is a slim fit but it's still comfortable. Keep in mind it isn't waterproof so I'm not sure how good of a fit it would be for you.
Btw, I think @snowy still has one as well.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm so close to ordering a Loco jacket that it's driving me … crazy. The length is the only measurement that is making me second guess it.

How much length is it missing? A 30% off sale is hard to pass up….. ESPECIALLY when it's at Mister Freedom!
I'd prefer another 3/4" but I might just give it a shot anyway. I can always send it back if I know it won't work prior to a soak.

Yup, have one as well. It's light for sure, and not even close to waterproof. It reminds me of a denim shirt in terms of it's warmth…

Let us know what you finally decide on. A rain resistant, stylish jacket that won't cause heatstroke in our weather is not an easy hunt.
By the way, I went functional and non-stylish, myself: https://www.amazon.com/Columbia-Watertight-Packable-Jacket-Black/dp/B00DQYWIHA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1469899963&sr=8-1&keywords=columbia+watertight+ii

For hot weather I have a Battenwear popover anorak which is water resistant and a Patagucci rain shell which is waterproof.
I like the jacket Chris pointed out and might get one myself.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

El Loco has arrived!
…in an Apache box?
Pre-soak fit (pardon the shorts)
Soaking….look at that texture!
Now drying
First impression is that it doesnt seem as boxy as I thought it would be, but this is pre-soak and it may feel differently after losing some length. Second, the green button holes pop against the denim and match the burl buttons beautifully. Last, the denim is phenomenal and I am loving it.
I am a little perturbed that my jacket came in a box and not a denim bag as it was listed but I got it on sale so I can't complain. I can't wait for it to dry and with the sun out in full force today it won't take long!
