Thanks @Broark - i'll keep my eye peeled on it!
Was on the site looking at size charts and for some reason (even though I've seen them 100 times), these really caught my eye… they look awesome without the turn ups and if you do cuff, they will have a big WOW factor - when the social situation calls for it.

Similar to the shipyards, it appears I am right in between the XL and XXL. Meaning if I try to shrink the XXL down to waist size, the hem will always be bigger than I prefer - if I get the XL, I will only be able to carefully hand wash... oh the back and forth!

25.5 inch sleeve on an XXL? My gorilla arms count me out of this one. That is the shortest sleeve I could manage (with those larger shoulders), and I would be swimming in the rest. It's a very cool shirt and different enough from the 55 that I would have liked to try it. Oh well. Please do keep us posted with pics as it evolves.

I'm sure Cristian could check to see if they have one in stock with longer arms - all my MFSC shirts had "long" sleeves for me except the Sportsman Metisse. Once I got the chest where I needed it, the sleeves were too short

The sleeves are a little short, but it doesn't really look comical or anything I don't think.
Maybe I mis-measured the sleeves, I'll check again tomorrow.
Also this shirt looks nice with the sleeves rolled up, a good way to show off the Stifle boot print.
One detail that I honestly overlooked a bit is the indigo dyed poplin fabric on the button inside placket. It's really a great shade of indigo that contrasts with the dark indigo of the shirt. I'll have to get a macro shot of it.
Wore the shirt today, just as an overshirt but wanted to give it a test run. Really like the fit of it buttoned up by itself too, probably will try that out this weekend. It's a bit slimmer through the mid-section that some of my IH shirts in the same size, but I think it still works. Plus they say vertical stripes are slimming right?

Looks good @Broark! Back in the day, I was a big fan of Thom Browne suits, and their main characteristics was a shrunken appearance in the sleeve, body length and inseam (not that I could afford them or had the body to wear them). I would much prefer a slightly shorter sleeve than one that is too long and looks unkept. Solid pick up - enjoy it!

Speedway Pique - original American Sportswear Edition.
Spoke to Tyler at Indigo Proof and I think we are gonna hem these and use the Extra fabric to make belt loops.

I've been saying I'm going to buy that belt since it came out.
Thanks for putting those images up @Appfaff to help me over the edge

No problem @madmonday -its been one of my favorites since I got it. It was my first MFSC purchase and one I will always look back fondly upon.
Plus, it looks like you are still in luck! http://misterfreedom.com/liberty-belts.html

U right , I've had that in my shopping cart so many times, hahahaha
time 2 sh!t or get off the pot, fit picks when it lands . . . maybe hahahaha

Nice!
Whenever someone is able to get something from a past collection of Christophe's it is an exciting day, no matter if it's a belt, a jacket or a shirt (Speaking of, someone needs to grab the last white utility shirt in XL (fits like a big large) from the Naval collection… it's been temping this me for years... although Cristian said I have zero chance of buttoning it up haha)

The Liberty belt is one of those amazing pieces that you never realize how good it is until you've had it for a couple of years. Mine has been my go to summer and office casual belt and the evo is very promising. Def get one Monday, you won't regret it.

Just got word from Tyler at IP that my riders have been successfully hemmed WHILE moving the map pockets up, not only to accommodate the shorter length, but also a little higher above the hem than they came stock - this way I can cuff if I want and not have to fold the map pockets. Tyler wouldn't even start the project until he had the right rivets for the job and he was able to course the same stock rivets that came in the pockets. Excited to get these and put them back into rotation!
