hang until fully dry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe Lot54R are considered true-to-size.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSee our MF® Californian cut\/fit references here.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAt 5’7 ~145 Lbs., I opted for my current W30 waist size, for a snug waist and classic generous 1950s-60s leg.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eI’m going un-hemmed and un-cuffed with these.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe size that will work best for you depends on how you like your jeans to fit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlease refer to our size chart and measuring method.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eA 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.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNote that your natural waist is a bit bellow belly button level, not bellow the hips.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCL's Advice: Which size works for you depends on how you like your jeans to fit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eI wear a size 30 in the reissue.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCARE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCARE for your MF® denim jeans:\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWash when necessary, as with other premium denim garments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWe recommend turning the jeans inside-out to avoid potential marbling of the denim fabric.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWash separately from light-colored garments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUsing hot water\/heat dryer may result in excessive and irreversible shrinkage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNote 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.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSTORY\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThey are back!\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe anticipated reissue of our very first MF® CALIFORNIAN blue jeans, an original vintage-inspired five-pocket pattern initially released in 2010, is finally out.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSame classic straight leg cut with traditional mid-rise, same trims, and same vintage New Old Stock (NOS) denim fabric.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWe called that cut “Lot54” at the time, a nod the general silhouette\/image of the “BRMC” blue jeans featured in The Wild One (1954).\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTo quote Johnny Stabler, “Now, listen, ya don’t go any one special place.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThat’s cornball style…Ya just go.” Snap.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOur revived traditional five-pocket design was obviously heavily-inspired by a combo of old Lee®\/Levis®\/Wrangler® classics, twisted MF® style.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe pair of Lot54 I wore at the time — I had much fewer MF® five-pocket options to grab from the closet back in 2010, so I went hard on those — is one of my favorite in my stash of Californians today.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eI save them for special occasions, and affectionately call them my “Sunday jeans”.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThat splash of red paint on the right leg is from the original MF® HQ facade facelift…\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAfter much hunting around in local LA warehouses, we were lucky enough to score some forgotten yardage of the exact same Cone Mills selvedge denim of the original Lot54s, a coded “XUV” 12 Oz. indigo denim twill milled by Cone’s White Oak factory in Greensboro, North Carolina, when it was still operating.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAfter 112 years of loyal service to the Denim and Fashion Industry, that facility notoriously closed in 2017, victim of corporate greed and offshoring fueled by a global audience’s thirst for cheaper goods.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWhayagonnado.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIf you’re into a classic pair of selvedge jeans with an old school silhouette, cut from vintage NOS USA-milled denim, sewn in USA, and with promising fabric evo potential, the MF® CALIFORNIAN Lot54R (reissue) may not be a bad choice.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe Mister Freedom® CALIFORNIAN Lot54R (reissue) are designed and\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003emade in California, CA in collaboration with Sugar Cane Co.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCut from NOS Cone Mills premium selvedge denim milled in USA.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Mister
