Historic Indy Shirt?

Post by Indy Magnoli »

Here is a replica of the WWII Army uniform shirt, which could be considered as a real-life counterpart to Indy's shirt:

Let me know what you think. This shirt is part of what I envision as what a 1930s adventure might have actually worn... along with my Vintage Adventurer! ;)

Kind regards,

Love it, and that jacket is the most drool-worthy I've ever seen. I wish I could afford it! But I've just paid for an AB and a Mark VI bag...

I think it looks great. I love the dark tan color.

very nice shirt! I always thought Indy's shirt would have been modeled on a military or safari shirt.

Oh and I love the jacket PLEASE tell me you are selling these?

On a tangent, I've been watching Magnum, P.I. on DVD over the past couple of days, and noted that the characters wear a lot of safari/military style shirts.

It amused me that the episode I watched just after reading this thread had Magnum wearing a shirt that was almost exactly like the one in this thread (the only difference being a slightly lighter colour); according to the review of this shirt on the Magnoli Clothiers website, Magnoli's shirt was designed following a request to specifically replicate Magnum's. That's beyond awesome. :)

Magnum also wears pretty distinctive Hawaiian shirts (and a khaki/brown web belt, for those pleased to know they can share items between their Indy/Magnum collections); a flash of inspiration mid-episode regarding these clothing items lead me to discover that there actually is a "Magnum Gear" community out there, who are only slightly less exacting than the Indygear crowd. :D

Always remember, Tom Selleck very nearly was Indy, it was only his contract on Magnum that opened the door for Harrison!
