Yea, the shirts look...okay....but I think I'm gonna stick to the guys we already know and love.

But at least there's another vender to add to the list. Who knows, the shirts could be state-of-the-art. :wink:

But he does offer a cheaper version for $25. Great for "Indy on a budget."

That's a security guard's shirt!
We tried out some dress shirts like that in the F.D.; they stick to you like fly-paper and don't breath worth a c**p. Plus, the "budget version" still has the badge tab on it. I'd definately be inclined to follow the advice of experienced heads on this site.

I had to wear a shirt just like it when I was a security guard. It was uncomfortable in the winter... in the mountains of northern New Jersey! And the collar bothered my neck so much that I wore a scarf between me and the shirt... even in summer.

Or, for the price, you could get one of Todd's, which has not been "Frankensteined" from other shirts:
Our seamstresses start with a uniform quality shirt like the one below and re-stitch the sleeves, replace the pocket flaps, add the 1.5' band down both sides of the shirt, remove permanent creases and transforms a uniform shirt into a great looking Indiana Jones style shirt.
If it's a "uniform quality" shirt, it's probably polyester or a cotton/poly blend. For the same price, you can order one of Todd's which is reported to have been patterned off an original movie shirt.
With the gracious help of the owner of one of the original Harrison Ford shirts from "Raiders", we were able to duplicate the measurements precisely.
Actually, just checking his site, Todd's price is $49.95, so it's cheaper. Which would YOU choose? :wink:

Keep an eye on your local thrift stores and you can find the same things for under 5 bucks usually. Plus if the same person/ organization donated more than one you have material to make one with the bands down the front yourself.

UUUUhhhhh...details? To me that implies something that you don't initially notice. I'm going with overall tone :wink: .
