Great Peter!

I'd be happy to see those pants finished! Like I said in other posts before, I'll definitively take the shirt and maybe the pants, too.

Will they be available in a boot cut, tapered legs, or straight leg style?

GO PETER !

I love my Jacket and this makes it even sweeter. I am on the list sir ! I may need to wait, as my diet is in full swing, and I'd like to hit my target before I order.

Peace !

They look great! Any estimate on what the pricetag will be, Peter? Whatever it is, I'm sure it will be well worth it if the quality of the jackets is any indication.

So far so good, Peter. How similar to Noel's offering will these trousers be, particularly in terms of pattern, material and colour?

Will you be doing both the 'Raiders' verison and the 'TOD/LC' versions? What version is pictured?

Thanks.

Sergei · Post by **Sergei** » Wed Jan 21, 2004 1:08 pm

They look great Peter. However, the color of the pictured pants are on the yellow side. It is going to be taupe or "office pinks" in color, right?

Thanks,
-Sergei

I think this is due to their being constructed in heavy duty cotton, as the calvery twill is 'coming'. I'm assuming this sample is just to get the pattern down. IF that's the planned final color...

Indiana · Post by **Indiana** » Wed Jan 21, 2004 4:42 pm

Id like to get a sample of the final material so I can compare it with some noel howard pant material I have... I may send you a pm Peter...

Indiana · Post by **Indiana** » Wed Jan 21, 2004 4:48 pm

As it says that is the prototype material.

You'll definatlly be getting an order from me! Any idea how much the shirts will be? (forgive me if I missed something...)

agent5 · Post by **agent5** » Sat Jan 24, 2004 12:56 pm

ITG,
I hear you. The only thing that bothered me about the NH pants was the cut. They pants are actually more strightlegged from the knees down. just look at the film and you'll see that they were pretty straight and tighter around the ankles than Noel had them. I had mine taken in and they look a world better. Did the same to my NH shirt and got the same results. I like! It also gives me the illusion of being slimmer/taller, much like the ribbon size does on the fedoras. I always looked frumpy in the NH, off the rack pants.

I'm really looking forward to seeing what Peter has in store for us.

'Ohio' Erick · Post by **'Ohio' Erick** » Sat Jan 24, 2004 2:04 pm

Peter,

Just received my jacket from you and couldn't be happier!

I would love to be able to say that I will purchase the Indy pants from you as well, but before I can say that, I have a couple of questions/concerns I would like to have addressed.

First, you said that the sample pants are cotton, but that the Calvalry Twill is on the way. Calvalry Twill, however, is merely the weave...so, will the final product be the 14 oz. wool that Noel used, or will the final product still be cotton?

:

Second, Noel's Indy pants appear to have been more of a "greyish-brown" color, whereas your sample pants (as you have stated) are "beige" in color. Will the final color more accurately mimic the actual color of the pants used in the movie, or will your offering be limited to just the "beige"?

:

Third, Noel had two different versions (i.e. colors) of Indy pants - the Raider's version and the ToD/LC version; will you (eventually) be offering more than one version, or are you planning on only offering the one version?

:

Noel's version of the Indy pants possessed an inside button flap, whereas your sample does not show this; will you be adding this to the final "for sale" version of the pants, or will they be exactly as they are shown in your "sample's" pictures?

: Personally, I rather like the addition of an inside button flap.

Irregardless of any differences in the minutia, if the quality of the final Indy pants offering even comes close to the quality of your jackets, then I have no doubt that it will be of the "utmost" quality!

Warm Regards,

Erick

Magnum · Post by **Magnum** » Sat Jan 24, 2004 2:32 pm

Peter, could you please comment further on the color of your pants? What does this shade of beige look like? Hopefully it's the greyish/reddish/brown like Indy's pants were. Thanks.

Yeah, for me I prefer boot leg pants for everything. Tapered legged pants look horrible on me. Here are my GAP boot leg Indy pants:
http://www.minnesotajones.com/Two%20Indys.jpg

But if Peter is doing a straight leg cut that's better in my opinion than tapered at the ankles, but I'm not really sure what you guys might consider more screen accurate-from what Agent 5 says, it may be the tapered leg.

Starman Jones · Post by **Starman Jones** » Mon Feb 09, 2004 5:57 pm

I congratulate Peter on taking the initiative of producing the trousers and Shirt. Unfortunately, I won't be buying the pants for two reasons. First, the button fly. I have MS and don't have the manual dexterity to manipulate the buttons rapidly wnough when I GOTTA GO NOW!! Second, is price. I'm retired and it's a balancing act to make your money last as long as you live.

I understand these are low production items and Peter can't take advantage of economy of scale. I will be buying the shirt, though. I've learned that the trick is to button the shirt up when it's off, save the 2 top buttons. I can then just pull the shirt off and pull it on.

As for pants, the L.L. Bean cavalary twills in the color that looks like milk chocolate make an excellent substitute except for the lack of rear pocket flaps. As I'm almost always in my power chair or on my electric scooter, so it's a moot point. If you want rear pocket flaps, then the L.L. Bean first class twills in taupe are an excellent choice. I'm just tossing these out as good alternatives for those with a limited budget for Indy Gear. If you can afford it, by all means buy Peter's products. He deserves our support.

BTW, in Tampa, FL wool twill is NOT an option except maybe one month out of the year.

Tollan · Post by **Tollan** » Fri Feb 13, 2004 11:30 am

Actually... I don't think that you should worry about the button fly. If you ask Peter I am SURE he willput a zip fly in instead if you request it. I know what you mean though... when you gotta goyou gotta go

Anyone have any ideas as to when these are coming out? Just curious.

Post by **Michaelson** » Thu Feb 26, 2004 1:37 pm

Things have been awfully quiet since last Friday, when Peter said he was going to be putting together a package deal over the weekend (last weekend). That's the last I saw or heard, so you know as much as we do right now.

: Regards. Michaelson

IndianaFist · Post by **IndianaFist** » Thu Feb 26, 2004 4:13 pm

YES! I am also waiting to hear about this package deal. I dont have a real jacket yet. So why not save abit longer and get all 3 at the same time!
