I received my smoking jacket the other day from
WING HOP FUNG and it's great. Very comfortable and soft. I real joy to wear.
The color is not screen accurate but it will do for now.
Here it is from the front and back
One of the things I like about it is that it is quilted similar to Indy's.
All in all, a really nice addition to any gear collection.
Cheers,
Pyroxene

That is quite cool. It looks like the same model. Only the colour, as you said, is not screen accurate.
Have a good one!

I am sure if you gave it to Dalexs he could do something about the colour. But as everyone else has said it looks mighty fine. I am tempted myself now... darn.

I know... I think in a few months time I might be the only person at uni with a smoking jacket.

Very classy! I went to the site and the red looks like the best pick. I wouldn't mind being seen in the morning stepping out into the yard to get the paper wearing that.

Hey pal,
That looks great! Now all you need is a good pipe. (I'm not kidding.) Wear it in good health.

...Add an ascot, a pair of silk slippers and a fez and you will look REALLY cool! Very nice, I've been looking for one of those for a while too.

It's pretty warm. I wouldn't wear it when it's hot.

Isn't there some kind of special hat, called a smoking hat, that is not a fez? Although PBG is right, a fez would look pretty cool.

Ok. I am not getting a fez. <grin> This is IndyGear not SallahGear (Of course that would be a funny idea for a site.)
Perhaps sombody could post a pic of the style they are trying to describe.

The main guy in "The Adams Family" (The movie) wore one I'm sure of it.

Flat top, silk, basically an oval cylinder about 2 1/2 inches tall.
Maybe, an oval with a 2 1/2 inch lip hanging down.
Just trying to put it into wards

Screen accurate, shmreen accurate. Maryon's gift of one of these babies for Christmas is so wonderful! They are warm and oh so comfortable. I shall treasure it along with the rest of the pantheon of Gear for many many years! Thanks, milove.

Now about that pipe and fez.... Hmmmm....

Glad you like it. In my search for one I read, "A dressing gown or robe and fine pajamas are so elegant that in principle you could wear them to fetch the bread for breakfast. It would certainly give the baker a shock"
However, for me, pipe--Yes. Fez--No.

Pyro.
