Alright gang, The materials have been sent to the manufacturer for the next shirt! :CR: I should have a sample in a few weeks. Now, I am working with a new manufacturer who has a great reputation. The exciting thing is that they are based in the USA and do everything in house. As a result, prices *w...

Yes, the listing on Etsy is for the most recent run! Here is a picture of the new Berlin shirt and wool blend trousers.

KarolianDryGoods

Hey gang, Sorry for being MIA on here! I tried accessing the site a few times and it said it was still down. Yes, my website has kinda been a pain to deal with, so I had been redirecting traffic to my Etsy shop. ALWAYS feel like you can reach out to me on Etsy or email (KarolianDryGoods@gmail.com) f...

SHORT REVIEW **UPDATED** Now that I have received also the pants from Karolian, here is my short UPDATED review of the pants from vendors which I have details for: - MBA Pants (Raiders Style - Not available anymore) / Owned Color: Screen accurate. Most probably same as the original movie. Material:...

I'm debating adding a Temple shirt this year to round out the line, but I don't want to step on Azumas toes. But it's on my mind. But please let me know if that'd be of interest. I would definitely be interested. I'm starting to put my TOD build together, and I was planning on buying your Classic a...

KarolianDryGoods

Great comparison pics! It's always interesting to see them next to each other. Glad you're liking the added length! I know some folks are finding them too long for their preferred fit, but remember you can have them hemmed, eliminating the lowest button, and that will give you the same number of but...

KarolianDryGoods

Glad it arrived safe, Croft! Lookin good!

KarolianDryGoods

Hey! We are back after maintenance! Apologies if I have been hard to get ahold of or missing messages on a few platforms. It's tough keeping track of everyone on emails, FB, here, Instagram, theRPF, it's a lot for one person. But I am doing my best to keep up! So please hang tight if you contacted m...

KarolianDryGoods

Thank you guys! I appreciate the kind words. I try to operate the way I'd want to be treated as a customer!

KarolianDryGoods

My pants arrive tomorrow and I'm excited! I love seeing all these reviews and pictures. I'd love to see KDG take on affordable Indy boots. Oh boy. As much as I'd like to do boots, I don't think I'd ever have the capital or space to do a run. I would however love to tackle an m1917...that's a projec...

KarolianDryGoods

I can grab some photos of the back soon, but they are pretty basic in the back. No vent or belt. Just like the screen used blazer.

KarolianDryGoods

Got the final preview from the Cut/Sew facility for the updated Cairos! These will be a little longer (5cm longer in length), have the 35mm pleats and placket, double pleated sleeves, and olive buttons. The buttons are a little darker than the previous runs, but those leaned more khaki/tan than oliv...

KarolianDryGoods

Thanks Croft! No worries. Question for Karolian... how much extra material do the trousers have on the waist? In case for example a size 34 needs to be enlarged to a size 35 in the waist? Thanks a lot! There is no too much extra fabric in the seam allowance. I might recommend sizing up to have them...

Great looking jacket! Great fit on it too!

KarolianDryGoods

Great pics, Croft! Thanks for the comparison pics! It's always helpful for folks and I only have a set of Todd's to compare! I am hoping these become kind of the spiritual successor to the Todd's. It means a lot to me to be seeing such positive feedback on these. I can't express how much I appreciat...

KarolianDryGoods

So glad you like them!

KarolianDryGoods

Very cool! Love that case - it's gorgeous !

KarolianDryGoods

And here is the back - the darts are almost impossible to see, but they are there!

KarolianDryGoods

Hey gang, I have had some folks reach out about the Tanis suit over the past few months, and it got brought up in the Sri Lanka Blazer thread again. I said I wasn't going to do another Adventure item for a bit after the stress of the Officer Trousers and Blouse, but I can start gathering interest in...

KarolianDryGoods

Glad you're enjoying it! I'd still love to do the Tanis suits! The hiccup is capital. I would definitely need to run a preorder for them due to the sizing requirements. That way everyone can order their jacket size, vest size, and trouser size. So, I still can, but it'd require quite a bit of backing!

KarolianDryGoods

Croft! So glad they arrived safe to ya. I think the blend helps the feel a bit. I didn't notice any wooly feel, but I'm not too sensitive to it, well, not as much as others I should say.

Cant wait to see some pics! Stay warm!

KarolianDryGoods

Thank you guys! I hope you like em!

KarolianDryGoods

Here is a quick shot in the yard of the new trousers! These just have the hemmed turned in and not their final length!

KarolianDryGoods

Got picked up today! So they are on the way!

I’ll let my seamstress know I’ll have some work for her soon.
Thanks for the heads up.

Croft

Excellent!

It is looking like they will arrive Tuesday, so shipping notifications should head out soon!

KarolianDryGoods

Freight costs are paid on the trousers so they should be landing late next week/early the following week depending on DHL

KarolianDryGoods

Hey gang, The trousers are JUST about to ship - I just have to pay the freight costs. The Cairos are in production - should be done by February! I was looking at hopefully bringing the next run of Berlin shirts to the US after finally finding a cut/sew facility in the US. Unfortuntaely with all the ...

KarolianDryGoods

Gorgeous rig! Cant wait to watch the youtube vid!

Yes! I've got several versions available depending on your taste, and I picked up a vintage holster that I am going to draw from (pun intended) on a different strap design

KarolianDryGoods

The felts have kinda exploded in price. With all the love Indy is getting and being a natural material, the squeeze is on. So the felts are looking to be about $100 each. So with labor and such, I'm hoping to get them at $375 putting them at a price point that I think reflects the quality and design...

KarolianDryGoods

Oh no, This would be lunar new year coming up in a few weeks. Id be more than upset if it was July #-o Ive made maybe 2 dozen hats for folks over the last few years. These would be the same felt and design as the ones I wear in most pics. The felts are very lightweight rabbit and flop like Raiders h...

KarolianDryGoods

Hey gang, Confirmed with the facilities that the shirts and trousers should be done before the national holiday. Thank you again (seriously!) for the patience on the trousers. The wool really threw everything for a loop. I can't understate how much the ongoing support means! I will also be doing a r...

KarolianDryGoods

Absolutely! I can do lefty versions of all my leather items (including Solo and such)

KarolianDryGoods

Thank you, Croft!

I also wrapped up my version of the Raiders Shoulder Holster!

There are a few hardware bits that will be swapped for ones that ship, but I am pretty happy with it! I also have options on etsy for different colored elastic and right side construction.

KarolianDryGoods

Overall, the wool trousers will have most of the same measurements. The edits I made were the rise in the crotch, and a slight taper at the knee vs the straight cut. All the other measurements I provided were the same. Now in production, there will always be some +|- but that's to be expected in man...

KarolianDryGoods

So if I’m doing the conversion correctly, your adding 3.93” which is close to 4” Wow, that would be awesome, is this correct? If it is I’m in for one L Croft :mrgreen: Yes! About 4 inches in length. I'll also bought back a few dozen shirts from previous runs, so I will have some Berlins in as well!...

KarolianDryGoods

Okay! I am just about to send payment to the cut/sew facility for the Cairo shirts. I confirmed the color fabric, buttons, length, and epaulet length with them. We are adding *10cm to the length*, the fabric color will be about the same as the last two runs (dye lots always vary), olive buttons (sam...

KarolianDryGoods

All right - I am in contact with my rep about the changes to the Cairo shirts (including adding about 2 inches of length) and they should get back to me soon. I just need 4 more preorders to cover the balance on the order. Even if you aren't on this run, sharing really helps! The trousers are also i...

KarolianDryGoods

Man, I am loving the excitement over this! Ive been poking around a few vintage holsters, but I am wondering if they mated two holster rigs together to get the kinda unique features

KarolianDryGoods

Thank you! There are some notable differences on the blouse from Marion's, but I'm really happy with how they turned out!

I didn't post it here or update the Indy specific groups because it's gear towards another character, but thank you for the kind words!

It was a really interesting project!

KarolianDryGoods

Fair enough! I should have some more info by the end of the week!

KarolianDryGoods

I'm about 5 shirt orders away from submitting the order, so I am going to reach out this week to discuss a few things about this run. I'll be able to confirm the length soon! But my plan for this run is to do the same fabric color, with the 35mm placket and pleat like the recent run of Classics, and...

KarolianDryGoods

Croft - The prices on my Etsy shop should show ya what is on sale there (a lot is 20% off until December). My site's a little different because the fees and such are different and I have been playing around with a few things to try to drive traffic there vs. Etsy. So there may be some "loss lea...

Or even better tall sizes

I'd LOVE to do tall sizes, but its tough to start a new line because of the initial investment and then having space for the inventory.

KarolianDryGoods

Canyon! Thanks! They are going to be deeply discounted for Black Friday and Cyber Monday! :whip: Will the sale start at midnight? I'm seriously considering grabbing one of these blazers too. I'm curious on the sizing - I noticed the size 42 says a 43.5" bust, which is just a hair larger than m...

KarolianDryGoods

Croft! I am going to inquire - it should totally be possible, but I don't want to confirm yet before I iron out all the details with the cut/sew facility. I am going to update a few things, and they're usually really open to changing up the design. Canyon! Thanks! They are going to be deeply discoun...

KarolianDryGoods

Hey all,

I have started gathering orders for another run of my Cairo shirts! These will be slightly updated and in a limited run of 100.

Thanks for lookin!

My buddy was able to grab some photos of their Sri Lanka blazer so I wanted to share here too!

KarolianDryGoods

Glad that was helpful! If it was placed yesterday, I should be sending it out today later this afternoon!

Hey Bear,

I have a 46 chest (measured, and I usually fit into 46 off the rack for suits) and I'm 5'11" and about 220, with 25" sleeve from shoulder seam to cuff.

I wear the XL and it fits as pictured in the attachment.

I hope that is helpful!
