Dude! You are the ultimate bargain hunter! Thanks, becasue I am definately on a budget.

By the way, if you can locate a $12 Indy shirt, and maybe $20 trousers, I'll be forever indebted to you. :wink:

I'll see what I can do :)

Those gloves, BTW, seem to have specs identical to the Wells Lamonts and Midwests, in terms of cut, leather type, etc. They're not too bad!

I agree. They look very close. I've owned 2 pair of 1123's, and those look pretty close.

Blues, I just got my L.L Bean pants for 15 bucks on the clearance rack at their factory store in Rehobeth DE. So I'm thinkin that they would be like that everywhere else too.

Fedora Jr. and Blues,
I did the same at the outlet in New Hampshire a month or so back. I found a pair of brownish khakis that offset the shirt and Wested well. I had never seen this color in a catalog or online. They were also something like $15.
If you can get to an outlet, you can sometimes find the older colors, like taupe. Remember taupe!

I got Dark Khaki, and they work fine. Although I couldn't find a shirt, I'm gonna get one from Advent source. They make an excellent Indy shirt.

I have the light khaki shirt from LL Bean. It was the one they offered last year and it's really nice. However, the one they have online for this year looks really dark. It's a shame.

I think I'll get a Wested shirt next. The pictures of Neo in his look great.

Yeah man, I looked at the llb shirt too, but the tan looked more orange than light khaki too me, and I have two Advent Source shirts, but they have patches on them, but the color is pretty dead on. So they have my approval. I was in Wisconson this week, at a pathfinder (kinda like religous girl and boy scouts) camporee, and Advent source had a booth up, but when I went to get the shirt, they were sold out of long sleeve :evil:

Great find Rob - and a great price to match, well done.

Have you tried to order from the site yet? I just tried to order a couple of pairs but the order form wouldn't process. :?

I wondered if you had better luck - maybe I just hit a snag?

No I got an error message too. Complained about it, and got a bounceback from that! Ha! I'm sure we'll work it out... but a bit frustrating!!!

I think these will stain really nicely, through use... they seem to be quite a neutral colour.

I got a reply... they claim they don't ship overseas.

I know, I know... I've already sent an e-mail pointing out that their online form contains provision for o/s addresses and, most tellingly, an option for "Canadian and Overseas Orders" in the shipping column.

Some retailers don't seem to be able to spot good opportunities when they come knocking.

Yea, the confirmation email went to my junk mail bin. :? I just saw it yesterday so the gloves were shipped on friday, could be waiting at home maybe, if not im sure ill get them tommorow. Good thing i checked my junk bin because i almost wrote an email i would have regretted.
When they say they dont ship internationally, i dont think its them, they seem to have a 3rd party shipper. I got emails from them ill post who they are when im home to check. They sell them and the shipping comfirmation comes from someone completely different.

This is where the shipping email came from..
"Your order #JUSTLEATHERGLOVES00347 has been shipped from ONLYSECURE.COM INC.."

not much on the page except contact info, probably same people who responded last time, they are both in Montana.

Great to hear it's all happening! Let us know the result! I'm so interested in this, because it was my find, and yet I can't actually order them for myself! :)

I got these in the other day too. They look perfect to me and are in my mkvii now. I like the fit better then the midwest version. the glove doesnt bunch up when you make a fist. Thanks for finding the link Rob and posting it. Sorry you cant order them but if you really want them i would be willing to get them and ship for you,but after all the s+h it might not be worth it. Anyway thanks again.
