Is MBA or Noel Howard still offering Indy Gear?

Post by Solo »

As I mentioned in earlier posts, I have been out of the Indy Gear World for a few years, At one point, I thought he was not going to offer gear any more! Is his stuff still available? I was just curious!

Sure, assuming you get him at the right time. ;)

Noel Howard usually is away on business, but when he's home, he's one of the best vendors out there!

Here's a pricelist Noel gave me a few months ago. Prices should be fairly current...

On a related note, does anybody know when Noel Howard will be back? The last time we exchanged emails was in the last week of December, and I haven't heard from him since... Was a pity too, since he was back in town for only a few days, after having returned from a few months abroad.

Yeah. The price of those hand made pants still shocks me every time I read that list!

Meh. It's money.
Plus, it's not as if Noel's really going to be doing this forever, y'know.
I'm happy with my pairs, and when you're happy you tend to forget what it cost.

You'll be even happier when you see them laying on top of the screen used pair he has.

the cavalry twill wool is pricey stuff.....then you couple that to the price of a high end british tailor and that's why they cost so much. good thing i can wear OTR stuff....though it's still over $200 usd.

come on.....how many times can you say that the man that suited up HF in the indiana jones movies is the same man that suited you up :wink:
