Ships fast via USPS Priority. MISTER FREEDOM® x SUGAR CANE Spring 2011 Collection “Les Apaches”: VESTE OUVRIER Voila l’été…et voila les Apaches! I would like to thank everyone involved in making this collection a reality, all the believers, supporters, risk takers and hard workers, especially our friends at Sugar Cane Co for their unconditional support with this new MFSC collaboration. MFSC Veste Ouvrier (workman’s jacket): Inspired by early french work wear gear, the first installment of the MFSC Apache collection is a our version of a french worker’s coat. We combined elements of several 1900’s to 1940’s pieces to make our veste ouvrier. We kinda like that one… SPECS: PATTERN: An original MFSC pattern and fit, inspired by early french bleu de chauffe. FABRIC: Two options (fabrics loomed in Japan exclusively for MFSC): A) INDIGO Métisse: 9.7 oz. indigo dyed twill blend, 70% cotton and 30% linen, un-sanforized. The yarn core is white, the indigo outer has a purple blue shade typical of early french indigo work clothes. Fades, bleeds and reacts to sun light… B) INDIGO Rayure: 8 oz. indigo/white warp and black weft striped twill, herringbone weave, white selvedge, un-sanforized (respectfully lifted from a late 1800’s swatch of french textile). Fades… BUTTONS: Original MFSC Corozo natural wood buttons. (aka “vegetable ivory”, corozo buttons where an hi-end option for suiting from the 1900’s to 1940’s). Five button-front. DETAILS: * Original slanted button holes, to keep straight vertical closure. * Inside white cotton twill pocket backing, to reinforce pocket top edges. * Concealed chest pocket, with flap covering the MFSC woven label (NO visible branding/logo, so you don’t feel like a billboard…). * Cinch back belt, with original french NOS metal sharp-prong buckle (DISCLAIMER: guaranteed to mess up your car seat, but we figured they have been around on battle fileds and in factories since the 1840’s, so we’re taking the risk in 2011…). The buckle is removable and you can switch to one that fits your needs. * Concealed chin strap. CONSTRUCTION: Tailor type single needle french seams, no overlock nor chainstitch. 100% Cotton thread, oxidized black/brown colour. SHRINKAGE: Both fabric options are RAW and unwashed, and will shrink lightly with cold wash/hang dry. SIZING: The Apache collection is sized/labelled in french! (all the way, baby…). 92 (small), 97 (medium), 102 (large), 107(Xlarge), 112(XXlarge) PACKAGING: The garment comes in an individual old school chipboard box, exclusive to MF. The original oil painting was masterfully executed by Mr. PATRICK SEGUI of RIVETED blog fame, and a paper print of his artwork will be featured on the Apache Collection box tops. Merci M’sieur Pat’…☺ LIMITED EDITION: For US and EU, a total of 130 jackets were made A) 70 pieces of INDIGO Métisse veste Ouvrier B) 60 pieces of INDIGO Rayure veste Ouvrier Garment designed in California by MISTER FREEDOM® and manufactured in Japan by Sugar Cane Co.
