Last Crusade Suit Color

Post by Band Director Jones »

How do you think this matches up (color wise) with the suit Indy wears on the docks in Venice (when he and Brody meet Elsa)? Is it too tan? Not grey enough? Just right? Opinions please.

Looks pretty darn close to me BDJ. I love that suit. Is it cut the same as Indy's suit?

Huh, that tie is brown? I always thought it was dark red or burgandy. Thanks for the pic.

Peace,

BDJ, that color resemblence is almost uncanny. May I ask where did you find the suit from? Do you have a link? That's a good taupe color! Thanks for the pics.

Sorry it's been a while since my original post. I've had some intermittent internet access (my cable modem went out). It seemed like every time I was able to get online I was kicked off.

The suit is similar to Indy's suit. The notched lapels are a little higher and it appears in the picture that the jacket fits tighter, but I've tried one of these on before (the taupe wasn't available when I did) and I can assure you that it doesn't fit that tight. It is rather comfortable. It is a jacket and suit separate so you can get flat front pants or pleated and a better fit between the pants and jacket, however the jacket and the pants are the same shade and material. Personally I'm not interested in a completely screen accurate suit, but rather the same color. The LC fedora looks awesome with that color suit. It is on sale until Monday so I might pick one up. Here is a picture and the link.
