Freenote Cloth

[Choko]

Thank you @popvulture! The rider jacket won’t disappoint, the quality is top notch. Freenote is a really small company too. They only have 5 people running the whole show. It’s great that they focus on the little things.

Also, thanks @Joberwocky! There are some benson heavyweight flannels dropping on March 1st. Definitely check them out. They’re just like UHFs.

@Dmart:

I like Freenote, I have a great Military khaki style shirt that gets a lot of wear.

Assuming you’re talking about the khaki utility shirt I totally agree. Love that thing.

Absolutely correct sir! It’s really amazing!

[popvulture]

Oh yeah shit I almost forgot — I have one of those utility shirts as well, the charcoal ltd. It's so nice… I really wanna get one of the olive or khaki ones maybe in the fall. The twill on those shirts is fantastic.

[Dmart]

The olive one is on my list as well. They are rather running large. I typically wear M or L in IH shirts and my utility shirt is size S ??? Although a tiny bit small for me.

I can throw my hat in the ring in this conversation. Just got the waxed rider in Tobacco. Really digging this one!! Love how the waxed canvas almost has a suede/ leather type look and feel. Really well made and a great fit for layering I think.

[Mizmazzle]

Wondering if anyone has the Shearling lined denim jacket from Freenote?

[Mizmazzle]

@Dmart @popvulture hey fellas. I tagged y’all cause ya both been a big help on my boot journeys. I’ve been wanting this shearling lined rj2 denim jacket for a while now and finally found a used one on Grailed. Snagged it straight away!! Goes great with the lofgrens eh?

[Dmart]

Looks indeed great. I personally prefer the look with the natural leather.

[popvulture]

Very killer! That nat cxl will start to develop some cool color variation along the top of the toe box as creases form. Only gets better!

[Mizmazzle]

Yeah I’m really digging those Lofgrens in the natural cxl. Weather has been hot lately but I’m squeezing in wears to the park with the dog in the evenings. The jacket on the other hand is indoors with AC on only haha.

[Mizmazzle]

Thought the Freenote thread could use some love

This jacket is without a doubt the sickest I’ve ever owned. The shearling is so plush and the denim a nice heavy, crisp 20oz. Fur lined pockets. Been living in this thing the last few months.

Beautiful jacket @Mizmazzle, I have a couple pairs of jeans from them, really nice stuff!

[Mizmazzle]

@misfitlife yeah those guys make some quality stuff. This shearling jacket is the warmest thing I’ve ever put on my body. Just a t shirt underneath and I’m warm down to 0 degrees. It’s crazy!

Have any of you picked up Freenote's flannels?

I picked up a few of their 13oz t-shirts and was pretty disappointed to find that the stitching around the shirt pocket was creating a hole in the shirt after maybe like 10 wears.  I really like some of their flannel colors but I'm a little shy about jumping in after my experience with their shirts.

First freenote item I bought was one of their henleys. Threads on the buttons were coming undone. I sent it back bummed. But then I got a waxed canvas jacket, short sleeved chambray, dope ass shearling riders. I think they have excellent quality. I’ve held their newer checkered Bensons and they are nice. I really wanted to buy one but it just wasn’t prudent in the moment.

Thanks for the feedback!  Will think about it some more.

Just picked up one of their 17oz slub in black and was I'm very impressed! Feels light for a heavier weight and, even though I only have a few hours in them, they are comfortable right off the bat. Nice attention to detail as well: pocket bags/rivets/leather patch). I wear almost only IH so I'm not easily wowed by other brands–but def gotta give freenote some love.

[Paul9221]

Thanks, guys!

Have you guys found their online measurements to be pretty accurate?  Trying to figure out which size to take in a flannel.

[Salted Racer]

Can’t speak for flannel but chart size on their jeans is accurate ( not tag size though—size 34 in some cuts runs 35.5 true size)

[Mizmazzle]

@Paul9221 I have found the measurements to be accurate. On the whole I tend to run in their smaller sizes it seams. I'm a consistent Large in IH shirts, but have Large, medium, and small in Freenote. Their measurements online have been pretty accurate. I did call them and spoke to Will when I was buying my Shearling RJ and that was helpful. Nice dude.
