getting a pair of N-1Z Deck Pants - Indigo Jungle Cloth tomorrow. the indigo jungle cloth looks great and I hope the sizing works.
found those pants in the warehouse, no idea if it’s a sample or maybe extinct piece
definitely like what they do at Mr Freedom -
@Tyler-Durden may I ask how tall you are and what fabric is that?
-
I’m 5’10. This is the SC/66. This was hot soaked so there was a bit of shrink to this.
I have the black version as well, unsoaked and it is considerably larger.
-
@Tyler-Durden dude fantastic fit man, looking awesome.
-
@Oaktavia Thank you so much brother! If I had to go with just one this would be it.
-
@Tyler-Durden thanks a lot ! Did you not wear the black one yet or just wanna leave it raw? I hope the double indigo fits me in 42, gonna be snug but it was the last one I was able to source and really want to make it work. Maybe I will only soak the arms or leave it raw

I do wear it at least once a weak. I decided to just leave it raw, and let everything settle in on its own. Maybe down the road I’ll do a cold soak.
- I’ll throw it on today and snap some pics.
I also have the Ice blue in a 42. They do run a size up until you soak. Will break in and loosen up over time with wears.
I’d suggest letting it do its own thing as it breaks in, if you decide to soak start with a cold soak.

@Tyler-Durden thanks man!! Very thrilled for that piece

@Tyler-Durden they both look fantastic! I am packed with bottoms atm but the mf stuff looks very cool. They also have a slubby chambray I find very interesting
-
@FlavourFade
where did you get it ? -
@Daniel-San Stuff F - Not really my favourite store but they have a couple nice things
-
@FlavourFade
they definitely have .
didn’t see the RB in indigo indigo there -
My ranch blouse arrived! What a jacket. Or maybe more like a shirt? It's definetely short!! But I like the fit and will wear it a lot! Not sure if I will soak only the arms maybe since they are kind of bulky but will keep them body raw as long as possible because I don't want to loose more length tbh
-
@FlavourFade I would cold soak the entire jacket. Instructions from the MF website:
"The Mister Freedom
Ranch Blouse comes raw/unwashed, and will shrink to tagged size.Follow the usual recommended initial method before wearing:
-
Cold soak for 30mn,
-
Washing machine spin dry
-
Line dry.
Please refer to sizing chart to determine which size works for you.
CL's Advice: I wear my usual Ranch Blouse size in this “Double Indigo” edition, a cold-soaked 38."
If you plan to only soak the arms, you will be unable to wash the torso when the time comes (it getting dirty) without shrinking it at that time. Might become problematic down the road if you spill anything on your chest or stomach. I know I spill my dinner and particularly dessert on my torso while wearing denim without even knowing half the time.
Remember, the RB are designed to be super short and you will lose up to two inches in length. So if it feels short, that's a good thing.

@Oaktavia thanks for the advice!! What could happen if I don't soak it before wearing and maybe wait until it needs to be cleaned? I like that it's short and boxy but hesitate because I am not sure if it still is cool with 2 inches less body length
-
@FlavourFade if you wait to soak now but soak/wash it later (when it needs it/gets dirty/stinks), you risk the dreaded fade shift. This means your fades will likely not line up in the same places before you soaked it due to the denim shrinking with water. And you will still get that shrinkage in length too. Basically, if you don't soak or wash it now, don't soak it ever...but that is not a sustainable gameplan IMO.
-
@Oaktavia the master has spoken
makes total sense. I will soak it once I am back home and can't wait for the results. -
@FlavourFade my RB fit very similar to yours pre soak. Below are pictures of mine post soak to give you an idea where yours may end up.
