I have lurked from time to time,here and there. I just really haven't had much to contribute of late. I have all my time chewed up by running my own coffee shop and being a father. Indygear and Indy Gear have been put on the back burner but last halloween forced me out of retirement and the daughter...

G'day chaps. I have not stopped in for a hundred years. In regards to the WPG jacket it is based on a G and B in a 42 Long that i sent Wajed 2 years back. The jacket was meant to have gone through a bit of fine tuning and counter sampling prior to release. I am not 100% sure that this ended up happe...

Thanks for sharing the pics.
That photo of the hem is awesome and is strange way of doing it and unless i had seen your pics i would have said never in a million years.

Thanks again for your contribution

its the bag,he isnt wearing it as Indy does,he must have the strap shorter
He seems to be wearing the bag the same way bike couriers do

well in a mid 1940s issue of The Western Horseman they hav an ad for Australian Bullwhips from $1.20 plus shipping.
The same magazine has "fancy officers belts with brass buckle" for .20

Its the bag, id bet my eyes on it

golpeo_rapidamente

Hey there
Look again,its on Grey Clouds back holding the peace pipe Mc Guffin (this is when the CG snow is happening)
Look carefully and all will be revealed (as will Indys holsterd pistol)

golpeo_rapidamente

Flannery also wears elastic sided boots very similair to the boots sold by RM Williams

golpeo_rapidamente

isnt Grey Cloud wearing indys bag,look thru the cg snow and its there

Grey Dude has the magic pipe in it,indys holster is also visible in the walk in the snow bit but disapears by the time he is inside(look thru the cg snow,its there)

hope this helps

Ill scan the pics tonite

golpeo_rapidamente

i think that the pics in Rolling Stone magazine predate the stars apearance

golpeo_rapidamente

There was a lot more missing in Crummy Skull than the holster,trust me

golpeo_rapidamente

That bigger scan with the pics is mine dude
its from the Australian Rolling Stone feature on Raiders from all those years ago

I purchased an Optiomo Indy in pecan and within a month i shelled out the cash for a second. I have just got the second hat back after a well earned rebuild its actually better than when new. To me the Optimo is the best raiders hat(s) ive owned ( and ive owned them all,Herby,PB,Akubra,Stetson,Mallo...

Great work

Cant wait til we see a working model

Im pretty sure they are Prince of Wales type spurs that screw into the heel,either way they are set very low into the heels.

I ride and i would not want my foot,boot or spur locked to the stirrups in any way

golpeo_rapidamente

Hello

Nope the spur is on his boot

golpeo_rapidamente

er dude,you sound like a crazy person

golpeo_rapidamente

Prince of Wales spurs screw into the heel rather than strap around the foot and heel
normal English spurs dont really work with the alden heel

i honestly thought this would go unnoticed

Ive used stiffener on both of my Optimos and its had no ill effect

golpeo_rapidamente

Ive had an Optimo and an Akubra reblocked by Optimo

The optimo looks better than when 1st made

The Akubra is another story,it nvere achieved the same result although unbashed it was the same block

You rock,the hats rock and this couldnt happen to a nicer fella.

Whats the turn around time on any Magnoli boots?
Thanks
Sam

golpeo_rapidamente

the truck chase was second unit so maybe the wardrobe was second unit (less detail as main shoot wardrobe?)
Terry probably did the horse stuff to free Harrison up for some close up stuff
remember Raiders was shot cheap and cheerfull so concurrent activity would have been the rule and not the exception

the hunting jacket in mystery of the blues is very cool (not leather)

Sam

Young Indy wears the same jacket (or similair) in the Hawkmen episode

nice jacket and very "current"
