Chinese Indy Pants on Feebay

Post by Texas Raider »

There is a vendor on Feebay that has been there for a long time. They sell Indy shirts and pants. The shirt I got a long time ago, it's excellent, not perfect I'm sure for you major spec'd out screen accuro's, but spectacular none the less.

I got the pants awhile ago as well, just getting around to posting. They are spectacular as well! Excellent quality, nice weight cotton,,,maybe just a wee bit khaki, but not tooo bad. I've taken a swatch of Noel Howard Temple of Doom colored pants material for comparison. The darker pair is one of the Dillards Oak Creek pants from awhile back. The pants are right about $60.00 shipped,,they make them custom tailored to your specs. I got mine unhemmed so I can wash them first for any shrinkage and then hem them. Great stuff,,,both the shirt and pants! Well worth the money and a great alternative!

I got them in about 10 days, maybe shorter. It's fast.

Is TSSY2005 the seller? Because I have seen those pants before and always wondered what they were like.

Same here,I like that they are custom made to your measurements and are machine washable.
Are the shirts custom also?-I only see S,M and L sizes on their listing.

They don't look to bad, cutwise, but for the price, they seem way to khaki, no?

Maybe we could ask them if they have something darker?

They just look khaki against those darker brown Oak Creek pants. Those pants aren't exactly a screen accurate color, they are brown. I think the pants look great.

I washed them 2 times in hot water and dried with high heat, very, VERY minimal shrinkage! Good material! Now I need to get them hemmed! ;)

My first two shirts were from TSSY. She will make them any size. Problem was, the two shirts I had were two different colors, and the buttons needed reinforcing. I like the pants, and she will most definitely make them a different color if you ask, but, Im not interested in pants from her. Just my two cents on the few transactions ive had with her. I think her name is Anna.

I gotta say, those pocket flaps look pretty good on those pants. I like them! They may be able to pull of a Raiders pant, if it was slightly grayer, with slight bit of brown, and the buttons were colour matched to the pants. Wonder what different swatches she has :-k

No, sorry, bro, no Westeds. If someone has a Wested swatch they want to send, I'll take pics of it with the pants.

They ask for your details in the paypal invoice, if you mentioned lighter colored buttons, they'd probably do it. As for colors, not so sure. I think they go with what they got. The auction states colors may vary, so you might get REAL lucky and get one that's spot on, who knows. But the color I got is fine with me.

I went for the pants, and she did not accept a bid of $35, just so you will know where the lower limit is, looks like $40. I too, like the custom feature, and for the price, you cant beat it. Also asked for the pant legs to be tapered for a better fit. What I'm wondering is how to reproduce the NH... taupe, gray, pink quality of the real deal? THAT is an unusual color to attempt to reproduce, although I would be happy with maybe a light taupe.

Sounds like the pants might be a good snag, it also sounds like those who've delt with this TSSY have been pleased.

I just received these Trousers (sorry being English I find it weird calling them pants) from TexanScott.

Got to say they look and feel great. Really nice feel and fit. Obviously not 100% SA but for me that's fine.

Now if any one has a chap whip Im all set. :whip:

Glad you like them IG. Well made and close to the real deal, I thought. She stays true to form with the button up and scolloped pockets.
