Mister Freedom - Baloo Jacket Two Tone

Pattern: An original pattern inspired by 1930’s sportswear ‘Cossack’ type unlined leather jackets, 1930’s “Grizzly” type leather jackets, and other vintage sportswear and outdoor garments.

Leather:
* Black vegetable-tanned “Tea-Core” full grain cow hide leather, black topcoat with natural-color flesh side, milled and supple, about 2-3 Oz weight. Exclusively developed for MF®.
* Soft-hand genuine sheepskin panels.

Lining: 100% cotton brushed flannel with a 1940’s-50’s-inspired vibrant plaid pattern, discharge-printed. Fabric milled in Japan.

• Vintage 1930’s style, inspired by our Cossack-style MF® Campus Jacket and Grizzly-style American sportswear jackets.
• Fully lined with a soft cotton brushed flannel featuring a vintage style discharge-printed plaid pattern.
• Single panel sheepskin back.
• Slash pockets with arrow-head pocket stops.
• Side gussets with adjustable side straps (NOS metal slide buckles)
• Keyhole button holes.
• Corozo ‘Cat Eyes’ wood buttons, backed by genuine bone buttons.
• Mister Freedom® woven “Sportsman” label.
• Made in USA.

NOTE: The Mister Freedom® Black BALOO Jacket is made of genuine leather. We use full-grain, and not top-grain leather (aka corrected or buffed leather, sanded to level surface inconsistencies). No two hides are alike and each panel may feature variations in texture along with natural imperfections.

Sizing: The fit could be quite snug, depending on one’s body type. If planning on layering, with a heavy cable knit wool sweater and a denim jacket for instance, considered sizing up for a comfortable fit.
I am usually a 40 in mfsc jackets and opted for a 40 in the Black BALOO, with enough room for a lightweight layer underneath.
