Freenote Cloth

@SourPower I do love the pattern of the RJ1. Really love the Franklin and Poe leather version. Think it lends itself well to a leather jacket.

@northsouthdenimguy said in Freenote Cloth:
Picked up the brown calico western online from Revolvr(Colorado?). First time ordering from them, took a while to receive, but the only place I could find with a XXL. Already has a worn in feel to it, I only have a handful of freenote shirts, but this may be my new favorite.
Needs a cold soak and maybe a damp machine dry, tighten it up a bit
This shirt just came back in stock @northsouthdenimguy on the Freenote website and I have ordered it. Fingers crossed the sizing is okay. Looking forward to the salty chocolate.

Nice! I keep on looking at it in my closet. It’s still a bit too cold if we get a warm day soon, I’m going to wear it again. It’s really nice, especially after I washed it, tightened it up a bit.
-
@northsouthdenimguy - I am thinking the brown will pair well with both black and indigo jeans.
-
@Bridger 100%.

I picked up the Rancho is Moss color from Iron Shop Provisions. I had one in large and it fit in all dimensions but the chest was a bit snug so I went with xl here.
This is the “struggle” I deal with sometimes. The large looks better in photos or the mirror, but the xl feels better to wear even though it’s a bit oversized in my opinion.
Anyhow, this is a nice mid weight cotton/linen blend.
-
thanks to Champ at Guilty Party for bringing these in for me. I’m partial to the Wilkes.
Edit: not carrying this cut in the shop, but made it easier for me to get a pair

@Darth-fader Freenote is the bee’s knees!

We released an exclusive version of Freenote's super popular Calico Western shirt this past weekend. A beautiful Espresso corduroy that was milled for us in Japan and finished off with the coolest "bone rope" snaps. We are real proud of it and you can see more photos here.

Can't justify it at the moment, but damn! Riders jacket comes in denim now! Was looking at the shoulder measurement being a little too narrow though anyway.
-
My apologies if this has come up before, but does anyone have any experience with Freenote's 17oz Black/Black slubby denim? How does it feel and age if so?
-
@phoenixinflight I have a pair of Wilkes in the 17oz black by black. The fabric is fairly stiff.You can really feel the texture.I haven't worn them a ton that pair is a dress up or date night pair. I think it will fade rather nicely with some dedication.
-
Anyone have Freenote Deck Pants in size 30? Is it possible to get the waist measurements in IH-way? I’d really appreciate it
Tried size 31 in a local shop and could almost fit my fist in the waist Usually wear size 30 in other brands jeans/pants. -
@phoenixinflight it’s a nice denim. A little crunchy at first but breaks in really nicely, the fading comes in quite white so it does have that black/white contrast which looks kinda cool. But if you’re after a stealthier black long term you might not like that. I really like them though.
-
@pmadison95 @americanathreads thanks for weighing in. Appreciate it. Something to ponder while I wait for the October 2027 restock of the 17oz Modesto. Love the look of the cut as I'm leaning more toward high rises these data
-
@americanathreads Interesting on the fading too. I would think a sulphur dyed warp and weft wouldn't show much white core at all. My UES black/black double knees have been worn HARD as it's more grey/charcoal contrast, but they definitely aren't as jet black as the Freenote look. You got any photos of yours?

I want a pair of the 17oz black. I have the indigo version in Belford and that denim is awesome. Stiff, creases nicely, lots of character.
The indigo/brown is really cool too. I feel like that one is maybe a little slept on, but I'm so glad I tried it.
-
@americanathreads Thanks for that! You can definitely see some white streaks coming through. Certainly must given up the sulphur dye easier than some other black warp and weft pairs - or is rope dyed and the white core is intact.
