Now that's weird Michaelson, because I can see them, but when I posted them, they went to right.
So I'm not if that's what Texan Scott is talking about.

Re: MOTB Cardigan
...I saw your attempt at posting those photos, Croft, and thought you might need a tweak or two, ha! Hope you don't mind.

Re: MOTB Cardigan
I don't know if Indy would have used that model of snow blower, Croft...
You might need to pick up one of these:
I bet he'd prefer yours, though, for sure!

He found it in Nepal. Abner was tired of helping his daughter clean a pathway to her bar so he invented the contraption. She's been drinking people drunk ever since to pay for the darn thing!LZeitgeist wrote:I don't know if Indy would have used that model of snow blower, Croft...

Re: MOTB Cardigan
I have one of those contraptions to, just find this one a little more efficient.
We didn't take to many close up's of the "undertones" ThatManFromRio, but here's another shot taken at the same time.
This is my US Wings SL, I put this one through the ringer, to big for me so I soaked it down, and through it into the dry on med heat. Shrunk it down and gave it a nice worn look, just like I'd taken sand paper to it.
Oh and yes I the gave a heavy coat of Picard's to soften it up.

Re: MOTB Cardigan
Looking great there, Croft.
I've also got a US wings SL (US), and I've got to say, so far it's my favorite Indy jacket (current inventory includes:3 Westeds, 2 US wings).

Re: MOTB Cardigan
Why is Croft right hand justified... You must be wearing a right handed cardigan, Croft? Either that or the weight of the blower tilted things askew? This is what happens when a guy uses non-SA related items....it just messes up the whole Indy universe.
Re: MOTB Cardigan
Got my MOTB Cardigan/scarf this week from Indy Magnoli. I LOVE it. The sweater is so unbelievably comfortable, and warm! The color and look is spot on for both the sweater and scarf. I will take some better pictures on Sunday. But here's a quick pic I took while watching the Hobbit on this cold winter night

Re: MOTB Cardigan
Yeah he got both of them to me very quickly. I Put my order in January 3rd, I got the scarf on the 17th and the sweater was delivered on the 28th.So he made and shipped the sweater to my door in less then a month. The sweater is SO comfortable. I cant really explain it but the material its made from is so soft. Wish I could get bed sheets made from it haha. And while it is an expensive sweater it actually is one of the cheaper Indy items I've bought so I guess I cant complain. Well worth the money IMO

Re: MOTB Cardigan
Looking good and that was serious fast turn-around.
Looks like the knit on yours is much tighter than mine. I look forward to closer pictures.
These are expensive for a sweater, but like Chuck said, compared to other pieces of 'name brand' gear (as opposed to the pennies on the dollar you could spend on 'close enough' options), the sweaters are in the same ballpark. And well worth it to me to get the exact sleeve and body length I wanted.

Indiana Jeff

Re: MOTB Cardigan
Slight update.... I've only managed to wear my sweater a few times. This morning I picked up my sweater to put it on and I noticed there was a hole in the seam that connect the collar to the main body of the sweater. It's not a high stress area like the armpits/shoulders and I only wore the sweater a few times. I've only had it for less then a week so I really don't think this was caused by me. I messaged Indy Magnoli and explained the situation. He mentioned they have to open the package and inspect it when it comes through customs and It may have been damaged then. Now that I think of it there was a hole in the bag when I received the package but at the time I thought nothing of it. Indy messaged me back right away and said to take to a tailor and have it fixed. He also mentioned that he would in fact reimburse me for the cost of the repair. Will be taking the sweater to get fixed tomorrow morning will update once I get it back. That being said I would like to say how much I appreciate the fact that Indy firmly stood behind his work. I don't know how the hole occurred, whether or not it happened when it was being made, during shipping or something that I caused. But it's really great to see him stand behind his work and offer to reimburse me. Definitely will be buying more from Indy in the future.
Re: MOTB Cardigan
Well finally got my sweater back from the tailor and it looks great. Cant tell there was ever a hole....And heres a few pics I took today

Anyone know a knitter?

Did anyone snag one of these before they were gone?

Re: MOTB Cardigan
Just wandered into the MotB episode here at COW, and love that look on Indy. Fortunately AE still had one in my size and I snagged it! Would have liked to get my hands on one of the Duluth ones, but I guess that's what I get for being late, heh.

After finding the 7 parts to the MotB episode on YouTube I just spliced them together and exported to Apple TV settings. I looked forward to watching it with these Indy "bookends."

I think it might be almost impossible to find the brand of sax he's playing, but given the small size of the horn, I would say it's a curved soprano sax....
Re: MOTB Cardigan
Just noticed that I can't find my MOTB cardigan. I think I got it from Land's End., but they don't offer it anymore. Anyone know where to get a SA one? I've already looked at Magnoli's.

Re: MOTB Cardigan
Yep, you fill in a sizing form and the sweater is made to measure.
I have one and was able to get the length custom made so it doesn't hang out the bottom of my Indy jackets when I wear them together.

Re: MOTB Cardigan
I found this at a local Dillard's Department store. It's Roundtree and Yorke and was priced at $79. I think this was the easiest found piece of Indy gear I have bought so far and it's really comfortable.

Re: MOTB Cardigan
I got the Duluth sweater today and ordered my normal size of 2xl. It is pretty roomy and looks like it would be comfortable. The length is too long to look right for me with my Indy jackets. By itself with the fedora, it looks fine. I will most likely just box it up and mail it to my Father in WV.
The 3XL Olive/Brown What Price Glory (WPG) I have which fits like a 2XL looks much better with the Indy jackets. It is about the same length as the jackets and the sleeves don't need rolled up. It is also more of a body conforming shape but not tight at all. I think wearing the sweater over the collar of the jacket works best given the cut of the jackets but that is a personal choice.

Re: MOTB Cardigan
Recent trip to the bitter northern realm of Calgary - of course I took my gear just to be able to wear the cardigans...
Old Navy:
Duluth Trading:
Both size L, but the Duluth one is substantially longer and bulkier. Lined and kept me warm, but poked out from inside the jacket everywhere.
If I actually had the need to wear a cardigan on a regular basis I might acquire a Duluth size M. (Anyone want to trade?)

I also picked up a new brown Chaps Shawl-Collar Cardigan on EBay for under 30 dollars. It has the look and is thinner which fits under the jackets much better. Cotton which is a plus for washing.

Re: MOTB Cardigan
I received one for Christmas, and it is roomy. However, in my case I have been wearing it as a coat. Sometimes with just a shirt, and sometimes with a tshirt and a sweater. I do not intend wearing one under a jacket or a coat
