SIZING/FIT
The Mister Freedom® Continental Shirt comes raw/unwashed, and will shrink to tagged size. Follow the usual recommended initial method before wearing: cold soak for 30mn, spin dry and line dry. Please refer to sizing chart to determine which size works for you.
CL’s Advice: If you are a Medium in mfsc shirts/jackets, you are a Medium in the ‘Continental‘. Because of the specific cut, the darting and requirements of this blazer-like pattern, this shirt/jacket will not fit every frame. For instance, the arm construction, although comfortable, disqualifies this jacket as beach-volley attire. There are no expansion pleats.
CARE
Machine wash on delicate, cold water, minimal eco-friendly detergent. Turn inside-out. Line dry only.
This fabric will develop attractive patina overtime, according to the owner’s activities, frequency of wear and laundering choices.
STORY
The Mister Freedom® Continental shirt/jacket only features four pockets and might not qualify as jungle-ready, but a glance at its intricate inside construction makes it look quasi tailor-made.
Style-wise this jacket is a combination of several influences: fancy 1950’s-70’s unlined tropical gear, short sleeve blazers, safari-type pocketing, elegant uniform silhouettes, Old World tailoring, and the mighty Sun Zhongshan suit.
For the detail-oriented who opens a garment to check its structure, the combination of bias tape piping and fabric selvedge is quite pleasant to the eye, if we may say so ourselves.
This MF® garment is designed in California by Mister Freedom® and manufactured in Japan by Sugar Cane Co.
