SIZING/FIT
The Mister Freedom Bora-Bora Shirt-Jac 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: The Bora-Bora Shirt-Jac is true-to-size. I opted for a medium, my usual size in mfsc top garments. The shirt length is purposely on the short side, typical of period Shirt-Jak garments, a bit accentuated visually by the body/armband wrap graphic.
CARE
Machine wash on delicate, cold water, minimal eco-friendly detergent. Turn inside-out. Line dry only.
STORY
The style of the our Bora-Bora Shirt-jac is inspired by 1950s-60s tropical island garb and vintage Shirt-Jac type garments. Casual hybrids between shirts and jackets, these are known in the tropics as the visitors attire of choice for luau, clambake and other beach BBQ festivities.
A bit about our shirts graphic The printing technique of the old-school monstera leaf wrapping body and arms is not your average silkscreening type method. An actual indigo-dyeing process was used to have the blue colors applied. Technically, the fabric is indigo-printed.
This MF garment is designed in California by Mister Freedom and manufactured in Japan by Sugar Cane Co.
