The Mister Freedom® TAP Lezard Jacket comes raw/unwashed, and will shrink to tagged size. Follow the usual recommended initial method before wearing: cold soak for 30mn, spin dry and line dry. Please refer to sizing chart to determine which size works for you.

CL's Advice: This jacket is true to size, and a Medium (38) fits like a snug Medium by mfsc standards. I wear a Medium with enough room for a sweatshirt or denim jacket underneath. This is a rather fitted jacket, depending of course on your build, proportions and choice of size.

We recommend professional cleaning in your local eco-friendly facility or hand wash in cold water with minimal eco-friendly detergent. Turn inside-out to avoid marbling of the denim fabric and un-zip before washing. Line dry only.

These fabrics will develop attractive patina overtime, according to the owner’s activities, frequency of wear and laundering choices.

Note: The double indigo twill will naturally bleed, and minimal color transfer to light color garments or furniture is to be expected. Indigo transfer will wash-off overtime.

 

This jacket is an original garment that blends vintage aesthetics and references to link history with contemporary wearables. The usual MF® spin was put on a 1950’s French Army Type 1 veste matelassée, an NVA black-dyed vest and vintage sportswear field gear.

The result is a hybrid jacket featuring double indigo twill on one side, and our version of the traditional camouflage lézard. This jacket is fully reversible, featuring a “TYE Tokyo” metal zipper with double-sided pull, mil-specs wool knit cuffs and collar band and side expansion wool knit gussets. 

This MF® garment is designed in California by Mister Freedom® and manufactured in Japan by Sugar Cane Co.
