What do you guys wear with Adventure pants?

[andrewindy]

I have been trying to figure out what else goes well with the adventure pant besides the adventure shirt for daily wearing. I want to start wearing the gears I have more often rather then pulling them out on special occasions.

What do you guys wear on the top to match the adventure pants usually?

thanks

Pretty well everything. Especially clean and pressed. A blue button down Oxford with indy jacket and a fedora works well, brown brouges or jodpur boots. I also wear my Wested trousers with a Harris tweed jacket in the autumn and winter at the weekends.

Wooo, too hot over there for wool trousers!

[IndyBrit]

Hot here too KT

[Kt Templar]

Indy Bermudas.... not!

(Bink.... don't even think about it....)

That's Snakewhip Sable, by the way.

Like it or not, Adventure pants are a breath away from an ordinary pair of khakis, which may well be the most versatile pants ever beside blue jeans. I'll wear nearly anything with khaki pants, including my Indy's; Safari shirts, t-shirts, polos (I favor olives, blues, and yellows). A well chosen hawaiian shirt can look great. If your going t-shirt or polo, sneakers work just as well as shoes or boots. And for a jacket, a sports jacket will dress them up a little, while a cotton work jacket or military field coat will make things more relaxed.

This just scratches the surface, really. The main thing to keep your choices neat, and avoid colors that don't work well with whatever shade of khaki you've got. I find my own don't work with most grays too well.

That's awesome.

Where do you find them?

[binkmeisterRick]

He got the Indy boxers somewhere in Canada, I believe.

I agree with Chewie in that these pants aren't too terribly far off from regular khakis or dress pants. I wear mine to work with a nice shirt much more than I do with an Indy shirt.

I generally wear mine with boxers. Unless it's way too hot or I plan to walk a lot, then boxer briefs.

[McFly]

I'd think the boxers might be cooler than the boxer briefs...

You guys...... ]

I thought about making that joke twice, and thought better of it both times, but I suppose I knew at the very least Bink would chime in with it.

[Michaelson]

Yeah, sometimes it's best just to sit by the sidelines and wait to see who comes running out of the bushes first, maboot....

I got those Indy boxers at a dollar store chain called 'Giant Tiger' or something like that.

You know, Sable, I was half tempted to post the Costanza shot, but thought better of it.

You guys actually wear these pants when it's NOT Halloween?

Appreciated!

I find the Indy pants to be very uncomfortable in even the slightest bit of heat. I've never been a fan of wool at all so I never wear these pants outside of a costuming event such as Halloween or a convention.

[binkmeisterRick]

My Indy pants are Orvis officer pinks repros (which they sadly don't make anymore). If you put their cavalry twill material next to NH and Wested pants, you'd have a hard time distinguishing which was which without really looking close and handling the swatches. They are very comfortable and I wear them three out of four seasons of the year. But then again, I don't view these as costume pants. I'm sure Orvis didn't, either.

Actually, the officer's twills, no. Usually just on "Indy" occasions. Though I do wear khakis often or jeans. I've "outgrown" one pair of my twills and am trying to remedy that. Though then I suppose my second pair will be too baggy.

I'd rather go with the baggy.

[maboot38]

I'd actually really like to have another pair of my Wested Indy pants, but a little baggier. I have occasionally worn them to work, but I don't think they are "around the house" comfortable like some of the wool pants sold by L.L. Bean and other such vendors.

Marosy, you realise that I will now be in therapy for the rest of my life.

I wear adventure shirts with adventure pants

I did find a pair of bermuda shorts that were kind of adventure looking, but I can't find them now. I guess they were bermuda triangle shorts. I'm just glad I wasn't wearing them when they disappeared.
