Re: Compliments on the general gear
My new response to the question, "Why are you so dressed up?" will be "Why aren't you?" It's past 5, what am I, a farmer? I do wish I could pull off the kind of clothes Indiana wore at the end of Raiders. But I'm a short Asian guy so it's tougher :P But yeah, that old style is s...

Re: Azuma's projects #2 of 3 - The Last Crusade Shirt
Just got my shirt safe and sound. Looks great. Only one complaint. I usually buy Smalls at stores like Express, Banana Republic, Club Monaco. When they say fitted, I love the way it fits, not too tight, but definitely well fitting on me. I'm by no means super skinny, in fact I have a bit of pudge I...

Re: The NEW 404/403 Alden Indy Boots are showing up!
Okay, so here's what I want to know: I just ordered a pair of 403's. On the second link above, Shoemart shows a 40514H and a 403. Except for the slighly faded look of the photograph making the 403 appear lighter in color, they look IDENTICAL, the 403 is called "Brown Analine Pullup" ($378...

Re: The NEW 404/403 Alden Indy Boots are showing up!
So I've been looking at the 404's. Alden 404 But they don't have my size, and they said it'd take 6-8 weeks to get it in my size. Anyone know a place? I did find it at TheShoeMart here But I read some reviews of ShoeMart that makes me kinda weary. Does anyone have any experiences to share? I e-maile...

Re: Azuma's projects #2 of 3 - The Last Crusade Shirt
For people shipping to the US (or Michigan specifically) was there actually an importing tariff? I've ordered things from overseas before where there wasn't one. I didn't get any fees at all. And the shipping price I paid for was about the same as anywhere in the US.....and it got here as quick as ...

5'7'', 155 lbs, 30'' waist. I ordered the Small, like I do for everything I buy clothes-wise. The main body was rather short. http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/170/17159227.jpg Other than that it seems like a great jacket.

Todd's Costumes? Where is he + a few other questions.
So, I'm trying to get a couple things from Todd before the Halloween party in a few weeks. I've emailed him, called him a couple times (answering machine) no response whatsoever. I just need to know if the stuff I order will get here in time. Like, does anyone know if I were to order things like the...

Re: MkVII Laptop Bag

They're all from 8.9-10.1 inches, use the same N270 processor, come with 1GB of ram, 160GB Harddrive, blah b...

Dunno, haven't heard from IdahoJones in a while. He's the only one I've found who seems to have made a relatively good MKVII from scratch.

Re: MkVII Laptop Bag
For reference, there are 10.1 inch netbooks that also fit into the mkvii very nicely. So a slightly larger screen, same pixel size. It's what I plan on using when I get my netbook after the summer.

Re: MkVII Laptop Bag
I think a MKVII would look fine scaled up. As I said before I don't think you could use the leather strap, but a web strap like the originals is no different than most of the bags on the market. I am going to do some PS mockups when I get home later, so we'll see. I think it would look pretty good ...

Re: Another gear to add to WIP
How happy are you with the Todd's strap? I'm looking to get another strap.
@OP
Where are you planning to get your leather? Do they come pre-cut in 1inch thickness or do you need to do that yourself somehow?

Which of these bags would stand up to the most wear and tear? Right now I'm thinking no the original unissued bags as I really...

The PB hats are inconsistent? Some people seemed to have had better experiences than others, while A...
