Great fit all round there @ben2t

Yes the lambskin is awesome have seen and touched it live some days ago. Leather is very smooth. def a nice jacket. @Anesthetist afaik the natural cow will still be in production but with everything with MF you never know.
On another note the métis (not metisse) fabric have earlier been used also in some items from les apaches, like the vest, the work jacket and the pantaloon ouvrier. which reminds me I could possibly combine the métis sportsman with the pantaloon for a full smurf attack hihi
@ben2t cpo is great isn't it

I won't put them in the dryer. Wouldn't want soft and wrinkly jeans or a fried patch. Or the disapproval of Christophe Loiron. The back cinch on these jeans will keep them up and I'm sure they'll look less baggy once they get some wear and creases. Got to embrace the full and manly cut of these jeans!
And that's a handsome jacket.
I think nothing wrong with a tumble dry, all depends on personal choice. CL does it on some of his pieces too from what I remember. But yes use the cinch back for authentic fit @Jeef

@Friday thx bro these are the indigo métis pantalon ouvrier from les apaches theme. Sold out but think there are flying some around somewhere, ask the pancho guys maybe Mikko can help you out.
No i dont own any items from Viva la revolucion theme any more. Do you mean the americano trousers in corduroy? I could have a more detailed look at these next time for you. Indeed beautiful trousers in a classic 30's vibe

I just acquired a Faro Sack Coat, navy corduroy… hard to take pics.
This is my dad's "real" U.S. Navy watch cap from his service in the early 1950s. RIP Dad, 1933-2014.
@Bluegrass your faro coat looks great, i love the men of frontier items, specially the faro stuff. Much respect to your father and wear the watchcap with pride. Sorry to read about your loss. Take care.
Thx for your comment above -
Thanks David - appreciate the kind words. I'm really enjoying the sack coat, still figuring out the best way to wear it. I've found I don't like it over heavy IH shirts - much better with a lighter weight shirt or light sweater or long sleeve henley or T. It is such a cool jacket, perhaps a bit fashion-forward for me, but I don't feel out of sorts wearing it.
Now that I've got the bug, I have another jacket coming (chaparral blouse/brown), and some OG 107 chinos. Also coveting either the rider's dungarees or the lot 64 Okinawa issue jeans (can't decide). Measurements on both look like they'd work well for me. The 301 14oz denim sounds amazing.
-
@Bluegrass you cannot go wrong with the MF chinos. And obviously you need BOTH of those jeans, the only real decision is which one to get first.
Also, have you checked out the vaquero jeans? You might need those too. -
@Bluegrass nice a chaparral blouse pretty hard to find, cool piece
The riders dungarees are superspecial with the ankle pockets and also hard to find afaik. If you are after a classic 5 pocket jean i'd say go with the lot 64 oki. They are really beautiful with some nice details like 13 star topbutton and camopockets.

If I had to look for inspiration in MF, I know davito is the man!

Truth ^

@Omega Man @summ3rhays @ben2t thx for your kind comments
