Here is a another piece from Freewheelers "Giants Of The Dead" collection. Different from Mr. Hemming of "The Lost Generation", Tom Joad is a fictional character from the John Steinbeck's 1939 novel The Grapes of Wrath. The novel talks about the struggling life of American farmers during the post Great Depression era. The main character - Tom Joad is a paroled young man who struggled for his family to make a living. The phrase "The Ghost of Tom Joad" comes from a Bruce Springsteen's song which Tom Joad was mentioned as a symbol of fighting against the ruthlessness of capitalism.

The t-shirt features a natural cotton color medium weight knitting fabric. The print of the t-shirt will age through your wearings to give a more vintage look!

Time and time again we see many different camo chinos but its rare that we see some that are truly unique! The Freewheeler’s vision of vintage military functionality and comfort of modern styling is something that really impressed us!

The ‘Krafty’ chino's fit is a high taper with an adjustable leg opening. This makes for a very comfortable fit, especially when worn using the draw string waist fastener. You can adjust the fit to match your styling with the removable leg opening adjuster, taper them in or open them up, its up to you! The chino pocket design also features an additional fastened, front flap pocket. Perfect for your small belongings like keys or lighters! The entire chino is skilfully constructed to a ‘bullet proof’ standard using FW's crazy thick cotton thread. 

Now onto the fabric!! The specially designed tiger camo pattern has been discharge printed onto a 100% cotton twill olive green fabric which feels quite smooth. With wear, you will see very beautiful military style ageing as the fabric fades to a lighter shade. The dark navy sections in the pattern have a subdued appearance, making the chinos easy to pair up with your other gear!

These are some of the most comfortable and functional chinos we’ve seen so far! And like most gears from FW we might not see them again, grab one for yourself while you can!

The Freewheelers are known for their limited quantities of special items throughout their collections. Here we have a very impressive dead stock version of their popular ‘Lynman’ oxford! For all of those who have a taste for the 'hard to find’ items this is one for you!

The inspiration for this style comes from tailored dress shirts from the late 1800’s. The ‘Lynman’ shirt really takes this historical style to a new perspective. If you look closely you’ll notice that the details are very irregular! The chest features no pockets for a more classical look and also has a minimal 5 button closure design. From the curved lower placket to the extra high collar, this is one super detailed shirt! 

Created using FW’s specially developed fabric, the woven check pattern is created on vintage machines using indigo dyed linen thread and unbleached natural cotton. The texture is super soft and has a subtle bumpy feeling to it. With time the fabric will age to a vintage look with many shades of sky blue indigo.

We think this shirt will look super dope worn in a oversized fit or even in a true to size fitting! If you are a fan of rare FW gear, you don’t want to miss out on this!

When it comes to signature fabric, we usually hear about denim… When it comes Freewheelers, one of their most famous signature fabrics is their cotton moleskin, this amazing fabric is truly one of a kind!

The heavy weight moleskin fabric is very soft to the touch and has a subtle furry feeling. This special kind of fabric can only be created from vintage machines controlled by skilled craftsmen. The charcoal colour has been overdyed, with use you’ll see the fabric age to a soulful vintage look. The colour tone will become lighter and the furry texture will become enhanced!

The construction has a totally ‘bullet-proof’ appearance, the complicated detailing and precision of each chainstitch is unlike any other brand. If you look closely you’ll notice the FW have even used extra thick thread to increase the durability and to add extra character to the overall style. The extra thick buttons are also specially created for this shirt and are all individually hand stitched, a time consuming process that yields the best result!

Thanks to the heavy-weight fabric and construction, you can wear the shirt in summer as a jacket or as an undershirt in winter! If you are a fan of true craftsmanship this is a great opportunity to try something very special!

We always try to bring in more cool non-denim garments. The "Mcbain" is a classic chinos style from Freewheelers. The whole idea is to reproduce an 1920s early style chino and also enhance it with modern fitting and utilities.

Using a 100% chino fabric that custom made for Freewheelers. The fabric is in a 1920s vintage chinos style, soft and smooth but tough as well. The fabric has been once washed and the color appears in a vintage khaki way. 

The most interesting part is the construction. It is some craziest we ever seen! The chino has been constructed with so many different patterns with some wildest stitchings. Freewheelers take inspirations from the early age outdoor pants and mining pants, mixing them together. You will see the deep patch on front pockets of bush pants, cinch back with single back pocket of miner pants together. Freewheelers double layered the pants from knee above, so it is still great to wear in the winter. Also, if you wear out the knee part, there is still one layer underneath and you don't have to do patch them. 

"Mcbain" is in a high tapered fit with a mid rise, roomy thigh part and a narrow leg opening. Either you want to rock with boots or sneakers or you want to wear them in a "over-sized" style as our model did, they are always some best choice! Trust me, this is something made for the true players!

Talking about garments, Freewheelers always proof that they deliver only the best of the best. Even their most basic plain tees tell a great story. We found these interesting graphic tees in our recent buying trip to Tokyo. They belongs to a collection called "Giants of the Dead" which Freewheelers pay tribute to those great figures of America.

The term "The Lost Generation" is popularised by Ernest Hemingway through his well known novel "The Sun Also Rises", and there is no doubt that this Pulitzer and Nobel Prize double winning war hero novelist is one of the greatest figures of 20th Century. The t-shirts feature a beautiful detailed sketch of Mr. Hemingway in his classic writing pose. Since it is "Giants of the Dead", Mr. Hemingway is in the shape of skulls and bones with the title of "The Lost Generation" underneath. This is not just an interesting collectable piece from Freewheelers. The t-shirt features a natural cotton color with Freewheelers custom made knitting fabric that make sure you will have comforts and durability in the same time!
