- SIZING/FIT
- *This particular fabric and cut run a bit big in the leg, the fit is more like Lot54.
- Some may consider sizing down.
- If you need assistance with sizing please reach out to sales@misterfreedom.com
- We recommend the usual protocol before wearing:
- Cold soak for about 30-40mn, with occasional hand agitation.
- Wear briefly before fully-dry to shape and set creases, then hang until fully dry.
- These Lot64 VDL14 MF® Californians are considered true-to-size, but run a bit more generous in the leg than most of our other Lot64s.
- They actually feel more like our Lot54 cut. (See MF® Californian fit references here.)
- At 5’7 ~145 Lbs., I opted to size down in the VDL14 and went for a W29, for a snug waist and classic 1950s-60s silhouette. (Please note that I am wearing a W30 prototype in the photos.)
- The size that will work best for you depends on how you like your jeans to fit.
- Please refer to our size chart and measuring method.
- A tagged W32 will most-likely be the right size for an individual with an approximate measured waist of +/- 32 inches, and with average body proportions.
- Note that your natural waist is a bit bellow belly button level, not bellow the hips.
- CL's Advice:
- At 5’7 ~145 Lbs., I opted to size down in the VDL14 and went for a W29, for a snug waist and classic 1950s-60s silhouette. (Please note that I am wearing a W30 prototype in the photos.)
- CARE
- Wash when necessary, as with other premium denim garments.We recommend turning the jeans inside-out to avoid potential marbling of the denim fabric.
- Using hot water/heat dryer may result in excessive and irreversible shrinkage.Note that boiling your jeans will turn the leather patch into instant beef jerky, and attaching a new patch on an already-mounted rear pocket is about as easy as wrangling a pack of feral jackrabbits.
- STORY
- If I were a fashion blogger I would start with “One of the problems with classic black denim jeans is what to not pair them with…”
- Instead, as illustration, below is a plethora of smashing MF® outfits, in all kinds of awkward poses and situations.
- Same black jeans, and too much time on my hands.
- We acquired some very cool yardage of black selvedge denim for this project, with the simple intention of releasing an unpretentious, classic cut, home-grown pair of solid black Mister Freedom® Lot64 Californian.
- Milled by Vidalia Specialty Mills in Vidalia, Louisiana, this black selvedge denim twill fabric has quite the historical background.
- The looms it was produced-on — a few restored vintage 1940s Draper X3 looms — were purchased sometime in 2017 from the iconic Cone Mills White Oak Plant by a North Carolina demolition contractor by the name of Will Dellinger (JW Demolition).
- Familiar to all heritage denimheads as the American mill responsible for Levi’s® golden age good looks, Cone Mills folded its domestic operation in 2017, looking for greener pasture and off-shoring to China and Mexico.
- The machines were in turn procured by Vidalia in 2019.
- Apparently 46 machines total.
- Of note, Cone still has somewhat of its legit USA denim-producing legacy going strong thanks to the dedicated crew at Proximity Denims since 2021.
- If the above chain of events sounds like a whole season of Dallas, it’s probably because the world of American Denim carries about the same amount of intrigue.
- What is less plot-driven and more transparent is that the premium denim fabric of the Mister Freedom® Lot64 VDL14 is a black warp x black weft twill, 14 Oz., milled in Louisiana, and that our jeans are cut/sewn in California, USA, the combination of which is bound to make you look fabulous and feel fantastic for years to come.
- Dress ‘em up, dress ‘em down, go Jailhouse Rock or 30 Rock, these classic black jeans will tell the story you choose.
- Please note that these Lot64 VDL14 run fuller in the leg than our typical Lot64s, with a silhouette closer to our Lot54.
- Be sure to read the sizing section and check the measurement chart, as some may decide to size down one inch from their usual Lot64 size.
- The Mister Freedom® CALIFORNIAN Lot64 are designed and
- made in California, CA in collaboration with Sugar Cane Co.
- Cut from Vidalia Mills premium selvedge denim milled in USA.
