Description: MISTER FREEDOM® NOS Gunpowder Tea HBT Workman Shirt This Gunpowder Tea HBT fabric is a New Old Stock Mister Freedom scored, a nice haul of 100% cotton herringbone 8.5oz twill milled in Italy. The dark greenish grey color is very similar to an old MFSC favorite introduced when they played cowboys ’n indians, during their “Men of the Frontier” days back in 2012. Inspired by 1900’s vintage textiles from the Old World, that HBT cotton-linen fabric had been milled in Japan and was featured on the Faro sack coat, waistcoat, and britches. It was also later used on the Sportsman Slacks. MF's Fall 2016 Workman shirt features a color very close to its handsome predecessor. It differs in weight and fiber content, however, much lighter and 100% cotton. The reverse displays a very slubby surface, with somewhat of a ‘brushed’ texture. The yarn appears to be sulfur-dyed, as the core is left natural. NOTE: We tested a sample Workman Shirt (featured in the photos) with a full wash cycle (cold water + eco detergent), followed by heat drying, and were quite surprised to see the dark greenish color age so quickly. Colorfastness was pretty low. After just one wash the new Workman Shirt had the patina of a garment that had built the Transcontinental Railroad. Instant gratification!
