Mister Freedom - The Second Chapter #1

One of our favorite lines here at Self Edge, Mister Freedom comes back with the second installment in the story of a Merchant Navy Sailor in the 1930's who had his clothes custom-made by the local Naval Base Tailor as he cruised around the world.

The second chapter of this concept is he sailor's last cruise that took him to the cold waters of the Souther Indian Ocean, after serving ten years in the Navy.

This Winter Collection, "The Last Cruise, Salty Years" focuses on extreme weather gear, custom Naval Tailor-made.
Our Sailor had become an "old salt" (an experienced seaman) by then and his clothes were weathered and faded by sea water, sun and wear. Although non-regulation, a popular practice since the 1920's for Navy enlisted men, was toe have custom "LIBERTY CUFFS" and multicolored stitching added to their uniforms by local tailors. Sewn on the inside of the garment and invisible to the patrol officers, the fancy cuffs were rolled up and displayed while on shore leave.
The sailor CPO denim shirt and forthcoming denim Pea Coat are "LIBERTY ISSUE", customized by the MFSC Naval Base Tailor, featuring a mermaid patch (also used as a secret money pocket) and hidden custom stitching in the form of a inner rainbow chainstitch.
The collection also includes a Modified Type of jungle cloth Deck Jacket, a pair of Modified Type 7161 denim jeans, a wool/cotton sweater, a rain hat, and an undershirt. MF has also reissued the extremely popular chambray shirt from last season.

We've done something a bit special again for this photo-shoot, modeled by Samuel de Goede, shot by Sidney Lo, then each main photograph was digitally processed by Ordo, also check the online store for hi-res shots of the rest of the details.

The 7161md Jeans, Foul Weather Hat, CPO Overshirt, Chambray Shirt, and Mister Freedom T-Shirts are now available in-store and in our online store, these items are made in small runs and restocks are not available. Please check the online store product pages for far too much information on every single piece in the collection:

Yup.

The hardware is all produced in Japan, it's sent to America, it's cut and sewn, then it's sent back to Japan to be inspected and tagged... This is also the case for about 70% of the rest of the Sugar Cane line..

 

[buttonman]

kinda expensive to do all that shipping
any particular reason why they do so?

Does the Pote Tin Kyriaki shirt run small or large in the sizing?

I've applied a tape measure to some of my shirts, and it leans towards a Large being OK; I'm just looking for a sanity check, since I don't trust my measuring skills all that much. I wear a large in AA t-shirts, if that's at all helpful.

They run very true to size... they barely shrink too, so if you're in between sizes go with the larger size..

Kiya,

I bought the Buzz Rickson Chambray from Mauro. I'm a true size M and would normally wear the 15/15.5 shirt, but he convinced me to go up to the 16. It arrived today and it fits in the shoulder and sleeve, but it a bit baggy in the body. Will the shirt shrink at all? He's holding a size 15 for me just in case.

Sugar Cane Orange Sun Sawtooth Western Flannel Shirt Sugar Cane hangs onto the summer sun with a beautiful new sawtooth design flannel shirt with a great color. The magical hands of TOYO have put this together for a late Fall delivery due to the heavier than usual weight of this flannel compared to other TOYO produced flannels. This shirt is now available in our online store along with a complete restock of all of Sugar Cane's jeans: http://www.selfedge.com/shop/index.p...index&cPath=65 Photos by Sidney Lo.:

You know... at first we thought it would be too intense compared to last season's CPO shirt, but it's actually a really easily wearable piece because it doesn't have any contrast stitching.. If you want it PM me and i'll help you out on it.. (offer only good for xchen)..
