Mister Freedom® P.T. HENLEY, tubular cotton jersey, “M.A.S.H.” Edition (white body/OD trims) Made in USA

Mister Freedom® P.T. HENLEY “M.A.S.H.” Edition, White body & OD Trims, tubular cotton jersey.
SS2021 Sportsman Catalog.
Made in USA.

Finally here, and not a moment too soon!
This is the long-awaited comeback of our Gym Henley pattern, revisited for Spring 2021, and fresh-off our California jersey knit factory!
It took a while to get them produced (we’ve been at it since 2020), but they are back, and now available in a full size range. No more sizing goat rodeo, for those of you who remember the original 2011 edition and its dozen of eclectic NOS tubular jerseys and all over the place specs!

This time around, the body is cut from our “SKIVVY” all-cotton tubular jersey knit (no side seams), a fabric of MF® SKIVVY T-Shirt fame.
This milled-in-USA “Skivvy” fabric has less mechanical stretch than our “STANLEY” slubby knit jersey (featured on our STANLEY T-Shirt model), resulting in a tighter, old school athletic shirt fit. For a more relaxed silhouette, consider sizing up.

The P.T. HENLEY features our MF® signature coverstitch/flatlock construction. For a vintage M*A*S*H vibe, we opted for contrasting stitching and trims: olive coverstitch, OD cotton poplin button packet facing, gunpowder grey needle-out jersey neckband, and olive green genuine bone buttons.

A tonal white version and few color options of the MF® P.T. Henley are in the pipeline, and production should wrap-up sometime during February-March 2022.

The MF® P.T. HENLEY is designed by Mister Freedom® and manufactured in California, USA.

Mister Freedom® Original Indigo dyed vintage Henleys

As we mentionned on twitter, Mister Freedom® has its own in-house INDIGO VAT 😉
I’ve been wanting a vat for the longest time and all it took was a bit of research and trial by error… Not willing to compete with centuries of experienced indigo dyeing from the Old World, but just wanted to crack the magic of the process.
So off we go: Very small batches of garments are coming out, with that fascinating color I never get tired of looking at. Different shades, according to number of dips, textile, ‘health’ of the vat, winds and moods.
It’s done about the same way folks used to over-dye garments in the back of the house 100 years ago.
Each piece comes out unique, irregular… but all indigo blue!

We have hand dyed a limited batch of vintage New Old Stock Henleys, three buttons, all cotton, 3/4 sleeves, 1940’s~50’s Swiss Government military issue (the Swiss know their Henleys…)
Different manufacturers/contracts/specs/knit, found dead stock in a military surplus warehouse.
After the hand dyeing process, we re-labelled the shirt to stamp the vat date.
The core of the cotton yarn is still of the original natural color, the indigo color on the outer surface of the fiber. The shirts will fade with repeat washing and wear.
They have been cold washed with gentle detergent, but some indigo bleeding might still occur.

Available WASHED and pre-shrunk
Sizes Assorted (because of the nature of the cotton knitt, the shirts stretch and are difficult to measure. We will ‘guess’ sizes from S to L). They look good tight and stretched out, as an undershirt should fit.
