SNEAK PEEK: Mister Freedom Fall '09

The very fine people at Mister Freedom were kind enough to invite me over and give me the exclusive, all access pass to the new line. These few pieces basically sum up everything I love. I'm not going to go into how great Christophe and his team are, or how they are able to create what others just talk about. I've already told my story about Christophe, his space, and my experience in it, in my post last week, so I'll let the pieces speak for themselves.
