Thank you for taking the time to respond so thoroughly, Bluegrass. I am officially jealous of that CPO fit. I think I made a mistake passing on it. I also appreciate the comparisons to similar IH shirts, as I have the 81 Cash in a XXXL.
I agree the Métis Sportsman is a special shirt, too. I've been trying wearing it open for a more casual look, but may take your advice and slowly turn up the temp with subsequent washes, until I get the shrinkage I desire.
Congrats on the Cavalry Map Shirt. I have seen the fabric in person, and it is indeed amazing. I'm sure you will get some great fades if you keep layering with it, too.
Anything catch your eye this season? I'm interested in the Pincheck Workman, Utility Jacket, and Hi-Land In Evac Jacket; but I will need to see them in person to determine if they are musts. I've been making an effort to really scale back the wardrobe, and only wear things that I truly love. That's why I asked for your opinion on fits and shrinkage, because it if it doesn't fit near perfectly, it's gotta go.
Thanks again, and enjoy your awesome gear!

CPO fit looks great @Bluegrass. Enjoy mate, it's a killer shirt.

Bluegrass, I may not have been clear. I haven't seen any of the new stuff in person, yet. I was just listing the items I am interested in from looking on CL's blog. It's a blessing and a curse to live close by, as I'm sure you can appreciate.
Haha. Yeah, throw a post-it on the credit card. That helps.

A few new items have popped up already on some Japanese sites.
I ordered the Sportsman workman shirt in black last Thursday, hopefully will be here by next week's end. See link, but its now on a few other sites.

Thats a nice shirt, I'm sure you'll report back!
For sure, still waiting on shipment sadly. Ended up being fiscally irresponsible and ordering the Okinawa CPO as well to save on shipping. I'll add some pics when they arrive. Should be an epic day.

Mister Freedom indigo metis shirt.

Such a great looking shirt. Any signs of fading on it yet?

There is a little bit on the ends of the sleeves but I've only worn it a few times. The fabric is pretty nuts, I don't think it will take much to show some wear. Will keep you posted

Thanks man! I still lust over this shirt something horrible.

Okinawa CPO XL over the Metis XL. Both amazing shirts. The denim on the CPO is something special.

Nice combo there. I wore my CPO yesterday as well. I love being outside in the sun, the colors are so amazing!

I've really wanted the Sportsman Blue Chambray in a Size Small forever. Only medium and up on the MF site, and one Japanese site had a large left. One or 2 mediums popped up on Ebay but I refrained from buying something I knew wouldn't fit. All hope was lost….
Or so I thought. I translated Mister Freedom into Japanese, filtered by date, exact matches, etc... And finally, I stumble upon Fashion-Freak-PX.com.... What is Fashion-Freak-PX.com? Fashion-Freak-PX.com is the only place on the internet with a Sportsman Blue Chambray in Size small. Got the last one. I have been vindicated for countless hours wasted.

If you are selling something in demand, it shouldn't be damn near impossible to track down. But the hunt is half the fun.
