First post for a little while...I quite like the first close enough bag. I am not 100% on the leather buckles, but the material colour looks great.

The strap is 1" wide and approx. 3mm thick (6mm when doubled for the returns). I replaced the original bag strap attachments with antique brass effect loops: http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc435/echobelly/Indiana%20Bag%20Strap/Oldattachmentsmin.jpg Replacement loops: http://i1211.photobuck...

Received the custom bag strap: http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc435/echobelly/Indiana%20Bag%20Strap/BagStrapmin.jpg It's made from Mulberry leather and has a gorgeous smell to it. I had it made to 80" long. This meant there had to be a join, which I wasn't too worried about as it is not me...

Apologies for the wait (I've moved countries!) I have finally gotten around to posting some pictures of the bag. http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc435/echobelly/Indiana%20Bag/indy1-1.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc435/echobelly/Indiana%20Bag/indy2-1.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/al...

:rolling: That is funny. No worries, it really is a fantastic suit. I'm really impressed. Actually, I never liked the original back design, and always thought a plain back, possibly with double vents would look better on a custom suit, even though not SA. (hope I don't get shot for saying that...sor...

Fantastic suit! Is it possible for you to post a full length shot of the back of the suit.

I really like that suit

The "worn" effect looks great. I kept looking at the sales picture and then comparing to yours and the effect is subtle but very well done.

KT Templar: Did you do anything to the bag apart from removing the embroidery? It looks nicely worn and weathered in the pictures.

All sounds good. Can't wait to receive mine and post some pictures up

Wow...nice comparison picture, thank you for posting. It looks like a really tidy bag, glad I bought it now. Can't wait to get my hands on it. The embroidery adds something, looks pretty smart in my view.

Great stuff

The reviews I read online seems to rate the quality, too.

No problem. :D I'm looking forward to receiving mine. I think it will be a handy modern bag with an Indy vibe. It looks like the strap is attached by clips and therefore could be easy to replace if one wished to do so. I'll attach pictures once I get it, though it could be in a few weeks as the bag ...

Not sure if this exact bag has been posted but I did find an earlier post from 2005 concerning another Nomad bag. Hopefully safe to post this. I recently bought this as a gift for my father and actually bought another for myself: http://www.nomadtravel.co.uk/p-81-travelproof-sahara-indiana-shoulder-...
