Update. Actually took these yesterday.
Been debating whether or not to artificially inseminate with Vitamin D and give it a coat of Pecard. It’s 0 degrees here and not much sun.  So far, holding strong. 

I gave in.
First wiped it down with some water and then a coat of Pecard.  Let it sit out a bit but seriously sunless in the east still.  Pretty much the Mister Freedom freedom treatment.
Included a shot of one half treated.  It’s not extreme but just expediting the inevitable.

A fellow addict said, wait what are you doing, you have that one don’t you? Well maybe I do in black. Maybe I have a new natty leather Mister Freedom Ranch jacket, but I had a dream about a natural type iii ever since 3sixteen did their Simmons Bilt black and brown ones with Standard & Strange a couple years back. So I had to do what was right, and honor my prescience.
The fit is fantastic, the leather is nuts, definitely a bunch warmer than the unlined Mr. freedom that’s already too cold to wear here in the east United States. I just pity the fool has to button this thing. Oh yeah me. PS my black one is for sale on Grailed, not that I don’t love it, do, but it was a little deal I made with my fevered brain when I saw this guy.

I know I know, I’m casually looking off into the distance. But I swear I was looking at a vintage 911 that was driving by.

So I'm not going to say this is the best jacket on earth, but it is currently the best jacket on earth that I'm wearing and certainly the best M65 and is going a long way to making its case as my favorite denim jacket, which is a bold statement given my collection of such….Here's some pics folks. Keep in mind, I wear a medium in nearly everything IH--maybe I'm large in UHF, but I was a medium in the overdid M65, but the medium dwarfed me. First images are of the small, following images in the ill fitting medium.
This thing is truly nuts, guys. An added bonus is the high stiff collar makes hoofing the smell of fresh (or wet if it's raining) denim particularly convenient.

Hey Alex, so this seems to be measuring a bit bigger than the overdyed. Is it fitting much bigger?
