The 'close enuff' Indy pants are on sale at the Dillards store for $9.99. I don't know if it is on the website, but I found them IN the store for that much. In the 'saddle' color as well. Plenty of sizes available. These are actually the pants I have on in my picture with Karen Allen in that thread. I've had those for some time now, on plenty of hikes and are still in great shape.


TR

Really!

Wow, that is a good deal. I doubt their listed on the site anymore. I checked a while ago and they weren't on it.

Dang! Blues got me a pair a while ago and it turned out they had a rip in the lower pant leg that he didn't see when he picked them up from the store. I was hoping to buy another pair but then they ran out of my size!

"Look at this...$10.00 from a Dillard's down the street. But, I buy it and maybe three or four more, it becomes priceless! Had to park. Men will bill for it....
Jones, do you realize where the nearest mall is?! It's past the plaza. An area with large parking lots. And it's within my reach...."
"You wanna park in lots? Let's go see 'em together. I've got nothing better to-"
"Uncle Indy, shop at home!"

They're really good Indy pants for $10.00. Thanks, TR.

HA! I like the little rewrite of that particular scene, very funny!

I'll go have a look see today(Tues). If anyone wants some, post the sizes here and I'll have a look. I'll check this post at about 2:00 in the afternoon Texas time. I'll get what I can and I'll check for other sizes and see what they got.

TR

so far;

Tone- 34X32, 36X34.

I think that Tone was just saying that those are common sizes, not that he wanted some in both sizes.

Actually, I think he was.

I'm really strapped for cash at the moment but see if they do have any size 36X34's in saddle tan still left.

That hole in my pants leg still bothers me and I swore I'd get another pair if I found them.

Pitfall Harry wrote:Actually, I think he was.

I know that Tone has some of these pants, so he knows what size he wears. He most likely wouldn't be ordering two different sizes unless he was ordering for him and someone else.

...there were only remnants of odd sizes. - None of which were the specified sizes I know people have been looking for.

TR, did you see large amounts of common sizes? 34X32s? 36X34s?

Seems to me that he is talking about sizes of pants to fit other people.

Hey Tone, if you are trying to get some pants, you better clear this up, quick.

You know, this thread would have really grabbed everyone's attention if you said "Pants - Half Off"

Ain't THAT the truth, rick!

Hahahah....That's a good one.

Remember you can alter these easy if they are close to your inseam. I still have a couple more stores possibly to check out for other sizes. I'll just return what doesn't get taken, so no biggie

$9.99 is the price, and shipping of course

TR

Ah, well....

I wear a 36x34.


By the way, thanks for going to all that trouble for us TR it's greatly appreciated.

Yep, and me 38 x32/33.

Good score, TR!! You're a good man and an asset to the site! (bet you never thought you'd read THAT here, did you? )

HIGH regards!

Michaelson

Michaelson, you could always sand your legs down a size or two.

Huh ...looking at those sizes, it appears that the only ones in luck are the ones with short legs or someone that is perfectly square.

Unfortunately, I am neither. I have long legs and I am in shape. Round is a shape isn't it?

Heck, I have that much sought after 'hourglass figure'....it's just that in my case, most of the sand has gone to the bottom.

aww, shucks,,


Also, if anyone is interested, they had lots of the flat front versions, too. I just grabbed all the pleated. If anyone wants those, let me know, I'll grab some flat fronts, too.

As a "Married ...With Children!" fan I can relate this:

Peg: Al, does this dress make me look fat?
Al: It's not the dress that makes you look fat; it's the fat that makes you look fat.

Since nobody else is really grabbing these I would be interested in taking one or both of the 34x34's. I have a few questions though. Just from looking at these, do they look like long or short 34's? I know that this is an odd question but some pants run shorter or longer in the same inseam. Also do these pants have cuffs? Thanks.

Hollis

Why couldn't there have been 36x34's!!!!!!

Montana, these seem to run just a bit on the long side, definitely NOT on the short side. And no, they don't have cuffs.

One pair of 34X34 is yours if you want it. That takes care of both of those. The other is sold. P.M me for the pay info.


TR

Checked another store, only 1 pair 32X32 (well, and a few 40 waists) I grabbed 'em if anyone wants this size! I'll be returning all the others next week, so if any of the sizes will work for ya, speak up.

TR

I'd be interested in a 36x32 if you have any left. Just a few questions....

Can you provide a link to the Karen Allen photograph you mentioned in your starter post and do you take Paypal?

Z.

zeus, to chime in on what I can, here's the Karen Allen link:
viewtopic.php?t=17353&highlight=

TR, what brand are these pants?

ITG, they are Oak Creek pants from Dillard's and the color is called saddle.

Thanks, ITG for the link!

TR,

I'm holding out for higher waisted slacks.

Cheers!

No problem, Zeus!

Buff got ya covered ITG! Oak Creek, Dillards,$9.99, get a pair! When you go, look for the sizes that I couldn't find

TR

TexasRaider,

You still taking orders?

I'll take those two pairs of 34x29s if still available.

Let me know and I'll PM my address.

Regards,
Indy45

Hmmm...no '40X32' for the umm....well fed among us, hunh?

I'm still miffed that there aren't anymore 36x34's floating around somewhere. I really like these pants and the color and I have looked everywhere for something similar and I can't find anything. They have Docker's with the pleated front and the pocket flaps but the color is just a slightly darker kaki.

If I want some more Indy pants I may not have a choice unless I spend a lot more and get some from L.L Bean or something.

Whew, Indy45, ya barely made it! I'm returning these pants on Tuesday, so yes, both are yours if you want them PM me and we'll get the details. I'm mailing the first pair out on Tuesday as well (sorry for the delay, couldn't make it to the P.O.) ..

Gator, there were plenty of size 40 waists, I just didn't pick them up. If you want, I'll check when I return these and grab em if they are 40X32 .

Let me know!

TR

Pitfall, there is always the Wal-mart pants, $14.99. They are spot on, just without the pocket flaps, but that is an easy fix. The color is perfect, and they are actually a very decent, durable pant.

Which ones are those. They must have slipped under my radar. Have a pic of them or the name brand?

thanks TR, I appreciate the offer. Just to be clear (I know it was probably mentioned before) but do threy have the pocket flaps?

If so, I'd be down for 2 pairs of the 40x32's. Can I pay PayPal, or prefer money order?

Gator, yes they do have pocket flaps.

Pitfall, I went in there looking for another pair for you, but... no luck yet. My wife is going to check the other location as well, but when we got the original pairs.... your's and Indakin's were the last two in that size then too. There is always hope, so I will grab them if we see them

Ken

Thanks for keeping your eyes peeled for my size. Do you know what Wal-Mart pants TR is talking about?

Pitfall, it's these- sorry for the slow response, just checked in

They are excellent pants, just a quick alteration to add pocket flaps.(buy a couple inches longer for the extra material)

The second pic is of them (right) next to the famous L.L.Bean pants in taupe.

TR

Thanks, TR!

I'll have to go to Wal-Mart and check them out. Does it give a color name on the pants? They look kind of grey from the photo's

Nope, they're not grey at all, they're taupe . I'll double check on the color name. Still checkin' on the other sizes

TR

Hey, Indiana Tone, I found a pair of 34X32 for ya!! Only 1 pair. Let me know if you want 'em, if not they'll be up for grabs! I'm still checking other stores I got a couple more to look at.

TR

I took a look at our local Dillards, TR, and they don't carry them, so don't bother checking the Tullahoma, TN store. (grins)

Regards! Michaelson

(SCREEEEEECH!!) [makes u-turn] Thanks for the heads up, Michaelson! Saves me about,,oh,,$2000.00 in gas (slightly exagerated,but not much these days). And I just refilled my coffee cup at the last rest area! Oh, well, on to Iowa! (are there Dillards there?)

TR

TONE!? You interested in these pants, my man? I got 'yer size sitting here in a box waiting to go

TR

Hello, all.

I'm a total newbie here, been into Indy since the films first came out but have just started getting into the gear.

I'd very much like to get on board with these pants.

I wear a 34 or 36 waist, depending on the brand. How do these run? My usual inseam is 32, but it seems to me that Indy's pants are a little long on him (or is it just that the cut of the pants is rather baggy?).

Anyway, I've been scouring the net looking for inexpensive close-enoughs for some time now, so if there are any left that are my size, please let me know.

Thanks!

I've returned all the pants, as no one needed the sizes. But I can go do a once over and see about a 36X32, as that was a size that there were two of. Do you just want one pair?

TR

TR:

Thanks for your reply. It seems, at this price, foolish not to "stock up" so I might as well get two pairs.

If possible, please pick up a 36x32 and a 34x32. If they have both available, I'll consider it strong motivation to continue pursuing my weight-loss diet. Otherwise, two 36x32's will be fine and I'll just wear them a little baggier when I do lose the weight.

Thanks very much for your efforts in this. I'm hoping that going to Dillards is not too out of your way.
