Freewheelers "WIGWAG" Indigo Wabash Work Jacket

Size Guide
Another classic from FW's designed for the modern workwear life!

Let's go back to the 1910s~ where the workmen donned classic workwear! FW has taken some inspiration from these styles but built upon them with more elegant, slimmer fittings and curved patterns to match the body more comfortably.

'Stifel' is that famous Wabash! FW has spent decades revising and improving its Wabash fabric. This 9oz version is genuine indigo thread dyed for a more vintage vibe. Woven using vintage denim machines, the fabric has a subtle vertical texture and irregular surface that feels more 'alive' than even vintage examples. With time you'll see some beautiful, soft contrast ageing against the off-white printed pattern.

Constructed with a combination of single needle and chain stitching machines, this one shows off FW's attention to detail. Looking closely you can see how skilfully they've regulated the curves and stitch distances to make up for an irregular 'vintage' look. With two waist pockets and the iconic watch pocket, this one is practical for your daily use. The large metal buttons are easy to use and give off an authentic workwear vibe when they glimmer in the light.

If you're looking for the perfect 'All-Season' work jacket to enjoy every day, this is the choice!

How We Measure

Pants and Shorts

Waist:

With the major buttoned up (i.e. the top button) open the jeans and lay them flat, like shown. Measure from the front where the major button closes to the back belt loop. Double this measurement to find the waist measurement.

The way we measure the waist is different from the 'Side to Side' technique. If you are used to the 'side to side' technique you can roughly roughly downsize by 1 inch.

For example, 'side to side' measurement for The Flat Head 3002 waist is 28inch and using our method measures at 29.25inch.

Front Rise:

With the jeans lying flat measure from the crotch bar tack to the top of the waistband. 

Back Rise:

Spread out the crotch so the bar tack is visible, then measure from the crotch to the top of the waistband.

Thigh:

One inch down from the crotch, measure flat across to the other side.

Inseam:

Flatten the leg and measure along the inseam from the crotch to the leg hem. 

Leg Openning:

Measure straight across the hem from side to side.

 

 

Tops

Shoulder:

Lay flat then measure from the shoulder's edge to the other shoulder's edge.

Chest:
