Got grain? For the last 2 years, Gibson in Saigon has been turning his Mister Freedom Ranch Blouse Double Indigo Jacket into what looks like a mine or ranch hand-found jacket. You know, like the kind hung on a nail for the last 70 years? Given 4 washes total, nothing separates this fader from his jacket, not even his work schedule or the humid climate of Vietnam. In fact, both have been heavily conducive to earning such an intense, hard-earned network of fades.

Touted as his first Mister Freedom jacket ever, Gibson wore this while working for a vintage denim store in Saigon and didn’t dare take it off when heading for the pub after hours. Besides alcohol, perhaps it was the humidity, heat, and rain that unlocked such striking creasing and denim evolution. After all, when you wear one garment through the good and the bad, and the ups and the downs, it might not be able to talk (although those whiskers down the sleeve are almost audible) but it sure will express itself.
