Hat: REI Convertible Legionnaire Cap Sweater: M.A.C.S POC-LFJ Bag: M.A.C.S POC-MHP Pants: Anchor Blue Convertible Cargo Pants (Self Tapered) Shoes: Vivobarefoot Primus Trail FG • This sweater is a proof-of-concept of an idea I had for a future M.A.C.S collection: Lunar Colony Settlement 001. This is the Lunar Fleece Jumper, made from upcycled materials.
- Vintage Patagonia fleece blanket
- ProClub Heavyweight T
- Phat Farm Anorak It features an extra-wide collar opening and a 1/2 length zip rather than the standard 1/4 length. This allows for the garment to be put on/removed over hats, headphones, etc. very easily. The kangaroo pocket has zippers on both openings. It also has a 3D pocket on the left chest. (My first time making one of these so it's a bit wonky lol). It also features elastic draw cords on the bottom hem to cinch it in. The left arm features a flap covering the tags of the original items used in it's construction.

Great colour coordination and blocking. Looks comfortable too.

Thank you! It is very comfortable. I sometimes regret chopping up that blanket at night hahaha.

great fit for L.A..... convertible and versatile, dig the rust/orange color too. Nice fit man!

Much appreciated, my friend! I was in the Boy Scouts for a long time so I guess that ol' "Be Prepared" took root lol

Yooo the color blocking is sick! Everything looks really good but personally I’m more of a fan of the cargos converted to shorts. They just seem too loose and a bit too long as pants. Especially with those shoes the shorts just seem to look more suited for it. But I’m diggin the fit overall and I’m not even a huge fan of bold colors like that. Good job!

I agree, the pants worn as shorts are just such a good fit. I think it's because the zippers give the leg a lot more structure than a plain hem would offer, so it keeps an extremely nice shape instead of going mushy

I think that's what the reason is too. The zippers kind of keep that round shape all the way to the knee which keeps all that extra fabric around the crotch where it's supposed to be lol

Thanks, yo! Yeah I've been meaning to go back and re-hem them. I just got those Vivos and although they aren't the best looking shoes (by any measure lol) I love being barefoot and after doing my research I decided that it would be worth it to be as close to barefoot as I can get even while I'm out and about.

Had to look this word up, but thank you! Learning something new all the time.

I might pick up a pair of those convertable cargos. Nice photo editing...

Thank you! Yeah once I tapered the bottom halves they look a lot better but I like the oversized look on the lower half of the body.

Really like the sweater, very interesting color blocking. Look forward to seeing more of your creations mac. Today's cool morning really made for great fit pic weather, glad to see I wasn't the only one taking advantage of it here in SoCal.
Thanks, brotha! I always appreciate your feedback and support. Yeah I saw you woke up and had the same idea as me hahaha
