03-6065- 76M - M65 Fish Tail Coat - Army Green
orSlow - M65 Fish Tail Coat - Army Green
Pleased is an understatement when it comes to the fact that we're working with orSlow. They've been on our brand "bucket list" for a while, so when we had a chance to see the line live in New York a few years back...we knew it was only a matter of time. The brand is everything we love - vintage-inspired designs with a modern branding approach and quality at the forefront of their ethos. It's all in the name, as they're the antidote to modern fast fashion...they do things slowly!
Here is more of orSlow doing what orSlow does best. Reimaging classic. This is the iconic M-65 fishtail in their vision. It's made from a densely-woven cotton and nylon canvas. This baby is oversized without being ill-fitting. And, if you want to make it fit even better you have the option to cinch and make drawstring adjustments. We think everyone is going to love the squared name plate tag, without the embroidered name. They've also gone ahead and removed the hood to create a more contemporary, clean-looking band style.
- Cotton Nylon Canvas Blend
- Band Collar
- Flap Pockets
- Zip Closure
- Hidden Button Placket
- Fishtail
- Draw String
- Made in Osaka, Japan
A variance of +/- .5" is within tolerance.
Fit Notes: We bought this round a little conservatively as we weren't sure about sizing. Our guess was that everything would fit small, but a lot of the fits are vintage-inspired so they run roomier. Ryan is wearing a (1) in this. They run very roomy, as do most M-65s. We recommend sizing true or even one size down if you want a slimmer fit. Shop owner Tommy also wears a size (1). He is 5'10," 162lbs with a 40" chest and a normal Japanese size large.












































Apparel
It's been some time since we've had indigo denim from Freenote, and we couldn't think of a better introduction than this blue/brown. If you know anything about our preferences, you know we love an earth-tone weft. Well, it doesn't get any more earthy than this. The brown on these is deeper than any we've seen from persimmon, turmeric, or catechu dyes in the past. It's a true mocha-colored brown that we think makes for one hell of a stylistic denim. The contrast between indigo and brown is a lot less harsh than that of a traditional jean, and this makes for a better-looking cuff in our opinion. It's also right in our sweet spot for weight. We really dig anything between 14-16oz. It has the perfect amount of crunch to give you all of those wonderful lines around the legs without being so hard to break in. This is the fabric we've been waiting for Freenote to work with for years!

CD-4 Jacket - Black
When we saw this fabric, even via catalog images, we knew we had to have it in the shop. It's such a unique twist for the guys at Freenote that lends to a more contemporary look. If you're like us, you'll think this baby is waxed up front. Crazy enough, it's not. This is a double pigment dyed fabric from Japan that gives off the look of a waxed piece, without all the upkeep of a waxed piece. It has a nice crunchy texture to it that even feels waxed in person. We couldn't believe our ears when they told us about it at a recent show. It's lined throughout the body with Alpaca and the sleeves have this gorgeous burnt orange satin. This thing is truly luxurious. It's so warm and looks so damn good. It functions like an N-1 at about half the price!
Jepson Sashiko Plaid - Indigo
The Jepson is a known staple at this point, but their ability to make it look new with every release is pretty astonishing. We said that last time but they've done it again. A mix of sashiko and plaid is almost too much to handle. It's a classic 2 pocket shirt that can be worn with almost anything. It has so many layers to explore right now, and even more, will expose its true nature once the indigo starts to fade. This baby is a standalone piece that doesn't really need other layers to make it pop.
Kurt Jacket - Indigo Single Stripe
The single stripe has become a staple at the shop over the last couple of years, but always in pant form. When we saw this classic chore coat-style work jacket come up, we couldn't say no. This fabric always constructs so nicely and the indigo pops like crazy when it's hit with the one wash. We are super intrigued by the mismatched pockets and all the extra sewing work throughout. The extra pockets and banded collar are the extra details that draw you in, but most people stay for that gorgeous Japanese fabric.
