SIZING/FIT The Mister Freedom® Manureva Deck Shorts comes raw/unwashed, and will shrink to tagged size. Follow the usual recommended initial method before wearing: cold soak for 30mn, spin dry and line dry. Please refer to sizing chart to determine which size works for you. CL's Advice: They are pretty much true-to-size, and I opted for a waist 32 and relaxed fit, judging the waist 30 a bit too ‘Angus Young’ on me. These shorts have a generous waist and slimmer thigh section. CARE Hand wash or machine wash on delicate, cold water, minimal eco-friendly detergent. Turn inside-out to avoid marbling of the fabric. Line dry only. This fabric will develop attractive patina overtime, according to the owner’s activities, frequency of wear and laundering choices. STORY The 70’s vibe is pretty obvious in the pattern of these short pants. Owing less in design to the British Army bermuda shorts than to funky-fresh flare “Bush Pants” popular some five decades ago, our Manureva's are available in a multitude of colorful options. A nautical reference to boat-builder, Hobie Cat®'s, colorful 1970’s sail patterns. Regarding the bermuda above-knee length, there’s always the custom route. To further alienate yourself from family and coworkers, crop the Manureva’s into hot pants, and tag us on Instagram. All skits aside, the Manureva Deck Shorts look very cool on, with a nice 70’s Playboy of the Marina nautical vibe. This MF® garment is designed in California by Mister Freedom® and manufactured in Japan by Sugar Cane Co.
