I am no expert on these matters, but having started with that comment:- Wested's Aliens Jacket is stated to be based on on A2 with added packets and features. Wested also make the Memphis Belle A2 jacket, which I also own as well as a LC Indy. The Memphis Belle A2 has the following differences from ...

The Jean Pierre watch as shown on the Miscellaneous Props page on the main Indygear site seems to be the same as the WW1111GP watch as shown on the AG Thomas web site at http://www.agthomas.co.uk/Watches_JP2000.htm . I did make telephone enquiries (UK) and the lady said that the watch was about GBP ...

I always use the Four in hand knot, although I didn't know it had a name! It is I believe the correct knot for fastening your tie in the UK armed forces, except when in mess kit!

Congratulations! An excellent pair of boots. Are those darker than other recent Alden's we've seen? Matt They look about the same shade, or very slightly darker, as my pair, which I bought from the San Francisco shop at the end of February. Max: How are your feet after the first outing?

Found It toda...

That's a pretty good starter, my friend! As for loading images, you're going about it the right way, but maybe your hosting site doesn't let you post pictures as such? That's the only thing I can think of. You can, however, post it as a url, which gets you click on a link. http://www.photobox.co.uk...

As a recent newbie I have been looking for a decent Fedora to wear with my new Wested LC jacket. I initially bought a crushable in a green colour (don't ask why green) but continued looking for a better brown. Found one in one of the very few "Gentlemen's Outfitters" remaining in my area (...

Don't know but this might help:- I'm from UK and take a 10 1/2 or 11 shoe! Couple of weeks ago in the SF Alden shop they tried me with a 10 1/2 EE, which fitted Ok, but eventually decided on the 11 E which gives abit more toe room and is almost as wide as the smaller EE ( as the shoe gets longer the...
