The entire USA and Japan production of our Mister Freedom® FW2024 "SUBMARINER" collection has now completed. This season's line-up is loosely inspired by the vintage underwater world of the "Silent Service", 1930s~1950s. Dive, dive, dive!
Also available are a few W2024 additions to our on-going USA-made SPORTSMAN catalog.
The words “organic denim” kinda belong together as much as “healthy cigarettes” or “sustainable fast fashion” do…
But Cone Mills White Oak Plant, North Carolina, produced a few limited runs of organic selvedge indigo denim back in its days, before one of the last domestic fabric milling operation in the US shut down in 2017. If you’ve ever owned a pair of pre-2001 classic 501s, the one plant that had been supplying Levi Strauss with its proprietary shrink-to-fit indigo denim for over 100 years is Cone Mills. Why that mill folded while demand for premium denim fabric had NEVER been that high worldwide at the time? Beats me. Blame it on Fast-Fashion new sets of rules reprogramming price points and consumers’ buying habits, and profit-driven suits lured by offshoring production to cut down on costs to accommodate shareholders…
I always thought Levi’s (a public yet somewhat still family-run business to this day) should have considered sacrificing a few assets and saved that plant… But no. Much cheaper to produce denim jeans in Turkey, Pakistan, Cambodia, Bangladesh, China, Ethiopia etc. And the garment-distressing factories to achieve that desirable « vintage » worn-in look are also right next door! How convenient. Much easier to turn a blind eye on environmental guidelines when they are being violated on the other side of the world… While the average consumer just wants a good deal, and "Buy Less, Pay More" never sounds too appealing to a society plagued by consumerism.
Anyways, here are two identical (before/after) pairs of Mister Freedom® "Californian" Lot64 OG23, cut from NOS (New Old Stock) « organic » denim produced by Cone Mills, jeans cut & sewn in California, USA. I wore my pair for about 8 months doing chores + 3 maintenance full washes. More deets here
