Freewheelers "Mal Ord" Blystone Mechanic Shirt

FREEWHEELERS

$285.00

Introducing the Blystone Mechanic Shirt from Freewheelers under the "UNION SPECIAL OVERALLS" label — a piece inspired by 1930s work shirts.

This shirt features a chin strap at the collar, with a dedicated button to neatly tuck it away when not in use. The chest pockets are asymmetrical, echoing vintage work jacket aesthetics:

  • The right pocket comes with a flap closure.

  • The left pocket is a uniquely shaped design with a built-in watch pocket.

Additional vintage-inspired details include:

  • Side gussets at the hem for durability.

  • A Union Label sewn inside the placket.

  • Urea buttons throughout for an authentic, period-correct touch.

Fabric:

Made from cotton weather cloth, the fabric features:

  • Combed twin yarns for the warp (vertical threads).

  • Slub yarns for the weft (horizontal threads), densely woven for structure and texture.
    This results in a fabric that feels crisp with a rich, irregular texture — perfect for capturing the spirit of vintage workwear.

Custom Model:

This version is a custom model with a navy discharge print applied using a traditional dye-penetration technique.

The print reads "Mal Ord", referencing a pioneering mechanic from Southern California who, in the 1930s, began crafting hot rod parts. Initially, he only made parts for close friends — a true garage legend of the early hot rod scene.

Material: 100% Cotton
