Our Paletot get its moniker from old school French slang and a nod to the Apache gang roaming around Paris in the early 1900s.
This jacket is inspired by early French garb mixed with work coats and outdoor jackets to create an elegant yet rugged garment.
For this iteration of our Paletot Apache we developed a beautiful indigo métisse cotton/linen twill. The indigo outer has a purple blue shade typical of early french indigo work clothes. This fabric is guaranteed to develop an attractive patina over time.
This MF® garment is designed in California by Mister Freedom® and manufactured in Japan by Sugar Cane Co.
