Hey all, I got word yesterday that production on the ToD/Skull shirts is complete! They're just undergoing inspection and pressing. After that, they'll be shipped my way and I will pull the preordered shirts and list the remainders. Thanks again for all the patience on these! Now that the relationsh...

Hey gang,

I got an email notification of a DM, but it is not in my inbox on here. It's totally possible that I am not familiar enough with the forum to locate it, but if this was you, can you email me at karoliandrygoods@gmail.com ?

Thanks!

KarolianDryGoods

All right gang!

We are cutting and sewing.

I should have more info soon.

I wanted to again thank everyone for the orders and patience on this run!

I am coming up on a year of starting my relationship with this outfit, so it's been a journey to get this ball rolling.

Thank you again!

KarolianDryGoods

Adam, you can always comment on posts like this mate! It's great to have an "inside" understanding of exactly what the issues are! And yeah, no one should feel knocked back by this post, I think! It's about getting all of us the very best accuracy we can! And honestly, Karolian Goods is d...

Respectfully, I want to comment on this thread. I worked extraordinary hard to get the details on my shirts as close *as is reasonably possible* on my shirts for production. Things like the hem length and style are done for production needs. In the case of the Cairos, I ran into the same issue on my...

KarolianDryGoods

I'd love to. But these would come down to material availability and costs for both materials and labor.

Things are so up in the air with fabric and textiles since Covid that at the moment it is really hard to say.

KarolianDryGoods

Thank you! I really do appreciate the patience. The manufacturer themselves have been great! I know a lot of folks are having issues with textiles. Which is mostly on my end for choosing a harder to find fabric both in weight/certification and especially color. Hopefully this will lead to another ru...

Hey gang

I sorted (most) of the fabric, so I approved everything and we are getting cutting next week.

Thanks again for all the patience on this run!

It was really important to me to get this specific color, weight, and quality certification on the fabric.

I'll update as I can!

KarolianDryGoods

Hey gang, I started offering a version of these and have found (with the type of leather I am using) if you want the rough out side to be smooth - it's easy to achieve! You will need some water and either a piece of canvas or leather (old belt works great.) Apply a little water to the backside, then...

Unfortunately the fabric manufacturer is not responding to any communication. Probably too small a fish to pay attention to, despite them claiming manufacturers only need to order 1k of fabric a year to keep an account open. :roll: So looks like I am paying retail for fabric. Inconvenient and kinda ...

KarolianDryGoods

Test label with the Ford stamp!

KarolianDryGoods

Thanks gang!

Re: length - confirmed with the cut/sew facility quantities for sizes. So they will draft up the sizing soon -including the length.

The hiccup is the fabric manufacturer is kinda giving me the run around, so still sorting things out with them

KarolianDryGoods

Rubber stamp has arrived for the labels!

KarolianDryGoods

I always loved the tie. My headcanon in DOD (personally I really loved it) is that Indy is very out of place in the 1960s culture. We see this established at the college, his neighbors, etc. I think the tie is the costumers trying to separate a more formal look of the "classic" era Indy wi...

KarolianDryGoods

No offense taken at all! Indy gear is meant to get beat up!

I will also have several sets of the new buttons for purchase as well. Great upgrades for previous shirts

KarolianDryGoods

I did communicate with the team that I want to add 3 inches in length to each size. I'm going to confirm before production starts - still sourcing best wholesale price on the fabric. Waiting to hear from the manufacturer. But I finalized the label design AND I have a waterproof waterproof stamp on t...

KarolianDryGoods

Small update on the MIA Temple shirts! The labels are at the weavers! I got a few questions on some changes on these. We are doing a taller collar stand and a larger collar. The cotton is a very high certified cotton (same with the labels) and the buttons are the most accurate I've offered yet - bot...

KarolianDryGoods

AFAIK - Some Raiders trousers were reused in TOD. The TOD specific pants are a bit different in their hem and rear dart. The rear dart is straight vs angled, and they were hemmed with a ~1.5 inch hem vs the ~4inch blind hem on the Raiders. I'll attach a pic from Temple that shows the straight dart (...

KarolianDryGoods

Working on the new labels for the Made in America Temple shirts! Using inspo from the Bermans + Nathan's labels. Thinking of using the Grail Diary address as an Easter egg :-k I will be getting a stamp made to stamp in "Harrison Ford" on the bottom of the label as well as "Raiders II&...

KarolianDryGoods

Hey gang,

I should have a full size chart soon - the pattern grading takes a bit of time.

I was able to confirm we can add 3 inches of length to each size!

KarolianDryGoods

Thanks fellas!

I won't have full grading until I submit all the sizing and fabric/buttons etc.

But the L has a back length of 29.75"

The preorder will run for awhile; I should have a video up on my Instagram page soon (just buried in work right now) but I'm really thrilled with these!

KarolianDryGoods

All right gang, The time has come! The new Made in America Adventure Shirts are ready for preorder! These are my Skull/ToD shirt! I can't really talk too much about how, but someone was kind enough to bring several shirts to meet a screen used one and take photos. So I am very confident on the color...

KarolianDryGoods

Hey gang, The new sample is in! I don't want to post full pics yet, but I'm really excited about this shirt! Made a bunch of changes and it will be a great fit for a few looks. My question is... Would folks want XXXL? I have a min number I need to order per size, so if only a few people are looking ...

KarolianDryGoods

Hello!

I got an email notification that I had a private message on here about a size change.

Unfortunately the message isn't in my inbox

Can the person who messaged me email me instead?

Karoliandrygoods@gmail.com

I'll need your order number!

Thanks

I'd definitely recommend sizing up!

KarolianDryGoods

Got word the new shirt sample is done!

Should hopefully have it in hand next week.

Really excited for this one - hoping it opens some doors to other soft goods as well!

KarolianDryGoods

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...

Glad it arrived safe, Croft! Lookin good!

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 !

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

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!
