Not bad, but there aren't any epaulets

Re: Close enough shirt- Duluth trading
it would do well for wearing under a jacket. Who'd know there aren't any?

Looks nice from the front. I actually don't mind no epaulettes since that's the one thing about the Indy shirt design that I really don't like.
However, if you read Duluth Trading's description, this shirt has a bi swing back? How does that look? When I think bi swing backs and pleats I think bowling shirts.

Re: Close enough shirt- Duluth trading
Yeah, I saw these in my catalog, but really, for the price, you can get a Todds or similar with epaullettes. These days you can get the repro's for the same or even cheaper than close- enoughs. It's not like back in the day when we were searching for something close enough 'cause there was no alternative.

Hard to tell from a drawing, but the color looks too dark.
That being said, Duluth stuff wears like iron.

Re: Close enough shirt- Duluth trading
I bought this shirt for now. Plan on making a Classic Indy Outfit, as well as a Modern Indy outfit.
It is a 5.11 Tactical Shirt to go with my "Modern" look:

Re: Close enough shirt- Duluth trading
Yeah I know ay
Only think that is annoying is the badge holes on the front (It's a Uniform Shirt), but the style without them doesn't have the shoulder epaulets and it has different pockets:

Re: Close enough shirt- Duluth trading
I managed to unpick the badge holder. It was just a rectangular strip with 2 holes, so now i'm completely happy with the shirt. I'll post some pics tonight.
Also, what do you guys think of this for my Modern Indy outfit. Thinking about getting it in Dark Brown:
Any other suggestions a welcomed. (And I plan on getting a Normal Indy jacket too).

Personally, I would have gotten the classic Indy jacket FIRST, but that's just me...

Re: Close enough shirt- Duluth trading
I most likely will after I get back from holidays in May. Get a Todd's Standard and Outdoorsmans at the same time. Just looking around at the moment just as a reference or guide for later on.
Re: Close enough shirt- Duluth trading
Could you please elaborate on this? In the photos, the badge holder grommets do not appear to be in a separate piece of fabric.clark.j.kent wrote:I managed to unpick the badge holder.
