Did you misspell "shirt" in the topic line? :lol: If so that's why it's all blocked out by #### signs!

Not a bad one - and great for people who don't care about 100% accuracy.

The big clanger with this one is that it doesn't have the double line of stitching running the length of the body, even over the pockets.

I'd give this about 80% accuracy - losing points for the aforementioned stitching, colour, buttons, epaulet style and a few things like that.

Heck, I'd get it even if it's not screen-accurate. You could say it's the shirt from Indy IV or one of his other adventures. His gear's probably in a constant state of flux. Just look at how his hat and jacket change throughout the three movies. :junior: -IJ

Without a doubt. Look at the way most of us wear & use our gear, and you'll see that. But when something is promoted as ... its an indy shirt. there is going to be some comparison.

I am always amazed when a store like BR offers a shirt like this. Brooks Bros. currently has one as well. You expect these kind of shirts from LL Bean and Orvis, but BR and Brooks Bros. are a different story. It's nice to see them offered.
