They look good and will probably shrink just a little more with a wash.

Thanks guys!!
I was very curious about these - great post! I had asked Cristian and he said they were cut essentially similar to the Lot 64. Which made me wonder, why Lot 654???
So yes, the cut is the Lot64 cut, but made with a new stock of the same cone denim used on the old lot54 if I remember my details correctly. Also, these feature similar stitching and patch details to the original lot 54 that were more toned down for versions of the 64s.
I was urged to stay away from the first batch of 64 because the thigh was so slim on the 34 and 36, but now that I can wear the 38, the fit is perfect for me and what I wanted.
I'll probably get these hemmed eventually, but like Anesthetist said, they will shrink a bit more so I will wait Til I soak one or two more times before sending them off.
Overall, they are great! And probably a better fit for me than the new lot74.
I was also able to snag a few items I had let pass me by years ago, the original Pique pant and the midnight riders. I'll get some pics of the riders, but here is a shot of the OG pique - loved the details on this version over the new sportsman although I love the newer "wheat" color.

The Tonkinoise is on my hit list as well. Nice fit on the 64, looks good!

Snagged a tonkinoise abut 3 weeks ago. Love the shirt. The fabric is incredibly neppy. As usual with MF the shirt has plenty of subtle and not so subtle details. I really dig the way the collar of the shirt is constructed.

Broke out my Watchman the other night. Gets a lot of looks, but I think it works.

Looks good. It's sure to get better with age as well and the colour will perhaps become more subdued.

I hope so, it can't get much brighter [emoji23]

Snagged this Sportsman Metisse in a trade with the good dude @johnny5799 as it was a bit too big for him.
I figured this fit was a little "off"
So I went against MFSC washing instructions and shrunk this baby into this:
No noticeable chest and shoulder shrinkage, but managed to bring the hem and sleeves up a bit.
Considering that all my other MF shirts are "gotta tuck me in" garments, I figured this was a nice change.
Cheers,
Adam

Nice! The fit is much better.

Thanks @summ3rhays ! I actually really like the "shrunken" look it has now. Definately something different for me to have.
My brother @FormulaPfaff cautioned me, as he said almost all the fits he's see are super baggy - must just be the drape of the heavier fabric or way it shrinks/dosnt shrink in places, since I've seen a lot of sportsman shirts on people that look quite trim and really good. I didn't measure it after I wash/dried it, but I'm sure I got about 1.5 inches in length shrunk with minimal chest shrink since it not tight at all in the P2P ever after the dryer.

Really liking the new fit @Appfaff
Once you get a good amount of wear on it I'm sure the fit will improve even more too. I've noticed, especially with tops, if you get some good combs and creases set in the whole shirt will slim down visually.

Thanks bro!
