SIZING/FIT

The Mister Freedom® Patrol 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: I wear a Medium in all three options of the Patrol Shirt.

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

Throwing military/safari/uniform details in the MF® blender, the resulting Patrol Shirt is an apparently simple looking shirt. It features some fancy details however, most of which only the wearer will notice.

Take a look at the bottom of the button placket, on the inside, and you will see some interesting folds and challenging pattern making magic. Elbow patches, box-pleat pockets, expansion ease-pleats, rounded wrist cuffs… and other details complete our Patrol Shirt.

The fabric of choice for this shirt is what we are calling ‘weather cloth’, a reference to a tight plain weave poplin type of fabric quite in use in the old days for outdoor gear, as well as in the military.

This MF® garment is designed in California by Mister Freedom® and manufactured in Japan by Sugar Cane Co.
