LL Bean Close-Enough Shirt

[Ragingblues]

I wanted to post this great Indy close-enough shirt, just in case it was missed or overlooked by someone:

www.llbean.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?storeId=1&catalogId=1&langId=-1&categoryId=45888&sc1=

This LL Bean makes a great adventure shirt by itself, and is just two pleats shy of being Indy's shirt itself. The current color is a touch too dark for Raider's, but will most likely fade with washings... or could be lightened with bleach. It's almost the right color to pull off a nice LC look, with the black tie, right now. Whichever way you go with it, it's certainly a great shirt, with many uses for folks such as ourselves.

I was recently sent one by a super generous, always friendly member of this board, as a gift. I will post a photo of me in it, once it's been washed and ready for action.

Thanks Secret "June" Santa!!

Those are great shirts! I have a short sleeve one that is around 30 years old. Its another piece of gear that I inherited from my dad. The thing is still as solid as the day it was built. I just wish it was long sleeve. It's a stone color that matches to what I see on screen in Raiders. I wish they still offered it in that color.

Well, it took me long enough... but, here is a shot of me in the LL Bean shirt:

As Ken looked closer, he could see Canyon and Fatima camped out on his lawn, still waiting for those Bantu Wind shots...


Hehe, as you can see, I love the picture.

Shirt looks great on you Ken! But then again, the gear always does

That is a nice looking shirt. I really can't get a good look at the color because of the sunlight. That is darker than the Old Navy shirt isn't it?

Great pose Ken, really STYLISH one!!! wow!

[Ragingblues]

Thanks Fatima! It's very nice of you to lie to me like that...

Thanks again,

Ken

KEN please....watch your modesty out!! would you??

[Deleted]

Yeah Fatima, I told him about that before!

That is a sharp adventure shirt, RB. Stylish pose, too.

I'd love to have one of these one day. They tend to show up and disappear throughout the year. What I can say is that LL Bean makes some quality stuff! It goes beyond slapping a brand label on the back; they really, really believe in their products. An LL Bean shirt would be money spent wisely!

[Ragingblues]

Thanks much Canyon, Fatima, and Tone...

The best part is, the great gear fairy left this one on my door step. So, I wound up with a fine looking shirt, and it was a gift to boot!

No, it's a shirt...not a boot. Weren't you following the story?

Nevermind... and thanks again to the great gear fairy as well,

Hmm. Not sure if the gear fairy wants to hold that title.

"Who...who are you?"
(Booming Voice) "I am the great gear fairy! Come to bring you screen accuracyyyyyyyy....."
"Thanks, Great Gear Fairy!"
"SHH!"
"What?"
"Don't call me that."
"But-"
"I know.-"
"You're the Great-"
"-Shut up!"
"-Gear Fai-"
"Quiet! Enjoy your shirt." ::POOF:: (Vanishes)
;D ;D Cool shirt! Once I pay some bills I'm going to try for a few of those.

;D Your story reminds me of the voice used in the Sinbad stunt show at Universal" Island Of Adventure. Atleast, that's what I hear in my head when reading it.

Yes, that's right.... I hear voices in my head. There, I said it.

Said what?

Who is that?

Who me? Are you talking to me?

No, he's talking to me... I think.

He nevers talks to you, because you're an idiot!

Am not

Are too...

Silence.... the gear fairy is coming!!!!

Ahhhh........ ok!

Shhhh..... you talk too much


Ken (and friends)

[indianatone]

;D ;D There has to be some level of madness here! Those are the people I trust. The "norm" is just plain weird to me anyway. You just go right on ahead and keep talking to yourselves, all!

RB, please tell RagingBlues that his LL Bean shirt is very cool.
