default Mister Freedom

I was in this store called Mister Freedom on Beverly Blvd in LA and I must say its like a kid in a candy store. tons of deadstock raw levis not the repro stuff. The guy carries tones of Sugarcane, Lees -- The prices aren't cheap but, if you are into one of kind stuff this is the place for you. I can't begin to say how much I was blown away. Kinda puts RRL stores to shame.

here's a link:

Sounds waaaaay out of my price range, but I think I'll check that place out next time I'm there, just to see what it's like. Nice tip.

It's not really about the website, it's about the quality of items carried there. Anyone can have a flashy website but stock a bunch of crap. This dude has a shit load of really amazing stuff.

I don't care about flashy websites but it can be clean and neat and fit on your screen, and have some sort of order and care put into it.

When I do construction work anything a client sees is a reflection of my business; so when I send in an estimate it is clean and neat, easy to read and done with great care and pride which in turn is a reflection of the work I do.

I can see from his website that he carries some nice products but give be a f**king break with this website it shows me sloppy careless work regardless of what he might actually do, he would be better off with a blank page that had his address and phone number on it. For someone who should be meticulous about details this website is horrible.

sounds a bit too exclusive/expensive considering it's a thrift store...based on the pics the selection looks impressive. The store reminds me a bit of What Comes Around Goes Around.

Are there any thrift stores around the USA that can rival these stores in selection, but offer accessible prices for the goods as well?

I concur, the website leaves something to be desired. I was basically reiterating what I found and wanted to share this with the super denim community.I personally think he has a great looking store and collection. You guys can e-mail him with suggestions on how to improve his website.


Anyway, I'm not about focusing on the negative, but the positive. Dogfarm, like your informative posts.

I like your post too. I think the stuff he carries looks good. And I like the idea of the store.
