  • Full 6 button front opening.
  • Rounded tails.
  • Brown corozo wood “cat-eye” buttons.
  • Two large utilitarian chest pockets with flaps, each with a pen slot.
  • Unstructured one-piece collar (no collar band.)

  • SIZING/FIT
  • The SNIPES HBT AG-44 shirt comes RAW/unwashed.
  • We recommend this usual protocol before wearing:
  • * Cold soak for about 30-40mn, with occasional hand agitation.
  • At 5.7’ ~145 lbs, I opted for a SMALL for a trim uniform-like fit.
  • We recommend sticking to your usual mfsc shirt size, understanding that what will work best for you depends on your body type and how you like your shirts to fit.
  • CARE
  • Hang dry.
  • Heat dryer may result in excessive/irreversible shrinkage.
  • STORY
  • The pattern of the MF® SNIPES is inspired by the earliest model of US Gov-issued uniform shirt in a full button-front design, a departure from earlier 1/2 button-front pullover styles.
  • Identified as Specs “No. 8-26C Shirt, Flannel, Olive-Drab, Coat Style” by the Quartermaster Corps, it was introduced sometime in 1933 and issued to US Army and Air Corps personnel and FDR’s CCC enrollees alike.
  • This new “Pattern 1933” uniform shirt was deemed “Coat Style”, marking a practical departure from its predecessor, the mustard color pullover wool shirt commonly associated with WW1 Doughboys.
  • The overall design was borrowed from civilian workwear, back when utilitarian garment-making skills bordered on fancy tailoring prowess.
  • This is definitely an intricate pattern by today’s workwear clothing standards, Dickies and the likes.
  • Besides the full six-button front placket improvement, the characteristics of the early 8-26C shirt included a one-piece unstructured collar (no collar band), a singular style of elbow reinforcement patch, and two large functional chest pockets, each with a pen slot.
  • The Mister Freedom® SNIPES retains all of that military design DNA, and we only decided to get creative with our choices of fabrics for each release.
  • This is our fourth iteration of the SNIPES, swapping the original US Army OD wool blend fabric with a Buzz Rickson’s Chambray in 2020, an OD cotton poplin in 2021 — a visual reference to classic US Navy N-3 type shirts —, and a light indigo HBT denim in 2023.
  • For mfsc FW2023 Survival School story, our SNIPES gets a new fancy skin, an all-cotton herringbone twill (HBT) in a classic US military color: Army Green shade 44 (AG-44) — think US Army Class A Green Service Uniform (1954-2015).
  • This is an attractive textured and lightweight fabric, about 6 Oz., milled in Japan.
  • The term “snipes” refers to US Navy enlisted personnel working in the engine room, the “sailors that sail below”, also known as “Black Gang” for their grease-covered blues and dixie cup covers.
  • See Machinist’s Mate Jake Holman’s dungarees for a Hollywood rendition.
