Yup. You got a winner there!!! Congrats and well done!

Hollowpond

Really looks the part!!! Can't wait to get mine now!

Hollowpond

The LL Bean one does indeed have that stitch detail. I just looked at it again

I'll be danged. I clearly don't have the eyes that other members here have, but I'm perfectly happy taking advantage of yall's attention to detail!

Hollowpond

That's a good catch. Haven't seen anyone point that out yet. It's like the top portion of the shawl collar is sewn on

Probably explains why that collar lays differently than other cardigans as well

Hollowpond

I got the "Bean" one. I don't have to have 100 percent SA...Having said all that, whatcha lookin at?

Hollowpond

Looks like goat. If so that thing is a TANK. Assuming the fit is what you want, that is a fantastic buy!

Hollowpond

Just ordered my sweater.

Hollowpond

Oh man. That's not bad at all. I'm 6' as well and would order a large regular. Yeah, I'm down for 6 buttons...

Thanks!

Hollowpond

I'm down for 6 buttons too pending your pic and the length. Thanks for that!

Hollowpond

Only thing keeping me from pulling the trigger is the length. I'm into function more than SA, BUT I'd love one that just sticks out a similar amount as Indy's...

Hollowpond

Gotta admit though, it would have been a humorous scene and a great way of introducing the Webley for the rest of his adventures.

I realize production folks weren't thinking there might even be sequels, I'm just saying with hindsight it would have been a neat little bit.

Hollowpond

I always thought the monkey was making sure everyone else in the bar had a gun. Never thought about the monkey stealing Indy's gun.

Hollowpond

I love my Todd's holster. Only one I've ever had and it immediately scratched the itch. Well done!

I'd love to see pics of this one!

Hollowpond

Yeah, I was just funnin'

I use a Windsor sometimes. And even above and beyond the thickness of the material, where on the tie the knot starts and how tightly you tie that base knot makes a HUGE difference. A full windsor is definitely more symmetrical when tied correctly.

Hollowpond

I'll probably do a Half Windsor myself. That's my knot of choice. Full Winds look hUgE and Four in Hands look starved. Full Windsor https://farm1.staticflickr.com/466/20290249382_441b9f3e96_o.jpg Four in Hand https://i.pinimg.com/736x/e5/e8/56/e5e856750140f4eea53450076222ad67.jpg :rolling:

Hollowpond

I’ll echo that. Top notch customer service. Karolian Dry Goods is tied with S&J with best gearhead customer service. And that is high praise indeed!

Thanks for being a fan first gear supplier Adam!

Hollowpond

Got them, and oooh wee…they are perfect. Can’t wait to get them hemmed.

Hollowpond

Looks great!!

Hollowpond

That’s my thoughts.

Hollowpond

I'm going through the thread now to find my next pair of boots. My ~5 year old Aldens are falling apart, literally. I only wear these things late fall to spring on the evenings and weekends. The sole on the right boot has pulled away from the boot 2/3 around. I might see if a local shoe repair plac...

Hollowpond

Got my shipping confirmation today!! $\:D/$

Be my first pair of real Indy pants ever, and I’ve been in this game for as long as the game has been around!

Hollowpond

I've always thought that the longer whip straps were made so the whip would be more visible under the jacket. If you've ever worn a heavy whip like this while in Indy gear, you know how aggravating and not practical that is! The whip slips and worse than that it swings everywhere putting...things......

Hollowpond

I think all of the press stuff used in DOD was subpar. Price of living in a digital world maybe?

Hollowpond

Now that's what I'm talking about...

Hollowpond

It looks like it has a connection to the belt off the bottom of the holster.

Hollowpond

Nice X2 then!

The Akubra will very likely be more durable than a Strat to boot.

Hollowpond

I am so glad you posted that. I had COMPLETELY forgotten about the Campdraft and I have been looking for a Stetson Stratoliner in a Cattleman's bash.

I'm about to make a hat purchase. Bashing that sand open crown myself will be fun, and what a great hat...

Hollowpond

If what they mean by that is mass produced, quality vintage style lids at affordable prices (200ish USD).

I'd definitely be excited by that.

Now if they mean they are gonna become another Dorfman

Hollowpond

I also thought that it was interesting that he crammed that hat on his head so low that his ears bent down....

Hollowpond

Never had the pleasure of talking to the guy. Owned a second hand early Adventurebilt that I should have held on to!

His impact on the gearhead community and impact on THE fedora (not to mention hat making in general) is undeniable.

Hollowpond

Man, those do look fantastic! Can't wait to get my pair $\:D/$

Hollowpond

I'm pretty excited to get my hands on Karolina's new wool blend, although I would love a pair of Mags one on these days

Hollowpond

Oh yeah. Let us know when these are ready!!!

Hollowpond

Looks like I know what strap I'm getting for my waxed canvas MKVII project. I knew it was going to be Make it Jones, but I wasn't sure of the style...now I am

Hollowpond

I would say that is also a product of businesses as a whole slipping. Customer service ain't what it used to be. We used to live in a society where someone would pump your gas for you, stores had cashiers and people to hoof bags out to your vehicle for you. Now we do all that ourselves because that ...

Hollowpond

Now y'all got me eyeballing those in the weathered henna.

This place is heck on a wallet!!!

Hollowpond

I agree. If I had not won the lottery with my recent Alden purchase, I would be all over these.

Hollowpond

Hollowpond

Swap the laces out with some of these and that's some awesome close-enoughs...

Hollowpond

Hey gang, The second run of Classic shirts arrived! Very happy with them! I made a few updates to them and the color is really fantastic (in my opinion anyways) very similar to the first run, but olive undertones vs. pink undertones. Looks good! Glad I got in on those. Any word on timeframes for th...

Hollowpond

I'm honestly not sure, but I do remember it was quicker than what was quoted when I bought it by a week or so...

Hollowpond

Just giving y'all the heads up, KDC has a new and improved "Classic Adventure Shirt" and wool blend adventure pants up for preorder now... https://karolian-dry-goods.myshopify.com/products/classic-adventure-shirt https://karolian-dry-goods.myshopify.com/products/wool-blend-desert-grey-offi...

Hollowpond

Use mine all the time. The layout is awesome.

My first pair of Aldens that I got (in… ‘98?), never had that problem. But after years of moaning about how much they cost, I finally nabbed a pair from eBay. And, man, does the tongue on one of them, always wants to take a dive… (not the other, only one). I’d started considering doing the same thi...

Hollowpond

/That's a great job, but man, 600 $ boots shouldn't have that issues by default! If it makes you feel better I only paid $193 for mine... :lol: But I hear ya. What's the worst part is that they pretty much have that problem across the board. If you look at Alden Indy reviews virtually everyone has ...

Hollowpond

No problem sliding them on and off. Your foot has to kind of slide more sideways, but it's just as easy as before just a slightly different movement. Kind of like putting on those old zippered dress boots...

Hollowpond

I wish there was a good DIY tongue stitch video. I LOVE my new Aldens, but that tongue sliding all over the place? ](*,) Agreed. Mine doesn't slide too much but even the little bit that it does is annoying. :x It didn't exist, so I had to invent it!! https://indygear.com/cow/viewtopic.php?t=74163 :...
