Wow, nice looking shirt you got there G-Mann. How long did it take from the time you ordered them to the time they arrived in the mail? As far as "Indy Clothing" goes I still wouldn't mind getting a closer style of boots to his and I want to own one of those original shirts. I can get buy with close-enough pants but I've got to find a way to get one of those shirts someday. Of course I think owning an AB would be at the top of my list right now for the most expensive gear item I'd like to have. I think before I get all of that though my wife and I need to get a new camera......a really good one.

Expensive for a shirt, yes. Too expensive for THE Indy shirt, naaaaw. Not at all. IMHO, none of the other offerings come close. Theres just something about the NH that is so true.
John, Your AB and shirt look fantastic in that pic. All screen accurate looking and what not.

Yeah, as far as the shirt goes it's like the AB. If you want the best of both your going to have to fork out some cash for them.

G-Mann, great to hear you got the shirt! It looks great on you! I love my NH pants and shirt and I really owe thanks to Erri Wan for letting me know that these items were still available in the first place. We look forward to seeing new gear pics of you as well.

The shirt looks really good Blues. I took a ton of new shots today and I was wearing the Old Navy "close-enough" and I was still sweating. Not to mention I took quite a few shots on with the jacket open and zipped up. It got up to 87 here today. So I understand why you didn't do any full gear pics.

That is one really nice shirt. The NH shirt SCREAMS Indy. It looks so thin and light, and already worn-in. I think most of the other options out there look a bit too crisp, too dressy. Nice shirt, congrats. 'Blues

;D ;D Terrific shots with the NH on, guys! The NH is definitely one piece of gear that leaves no question or doubt in the mind that it IS authentic. With Aldens, you may get the right color, you may get something off-color (and I think their stitching pattern has changed over the years near the toe.) The Wested can be spec'd to a degree to look like Indy's jacket, but the nickel zipper, etc. isn't an option (though, I do get where Peter's decided not to change that.) With the NH shirt, you just GET the Indy shirt! No alterations, no special requests. It's without a doubt, upon first viewing, Indy's shirt! G-Mann, be sure and return that artifact when you're done with it. RagingBlues, good to see "Gizmo" in a few shots! Your shirts fit you guys to a "T". Did you give your own measurements to NH or are those off-the-rack shirts?

Sweet shot John! You need to start a thread with this shot of you in it, so it doesn't get lost in this one. Very nice action shot too, which always kicks these sorts of things up a notch. Indy always seems to be running from somebody in our shots, doesn't he? ;D Great work, Ken

Tone, Off the rack size Large, regular length sleeves for me, and I believe for John as well. I sent Noel my measurements so he could recommend which size/sleeve length to go with. I think it fits me as good or better than the Magnoli shirt I had made for me. Of course, that sort of mileage may very with each person... but I'm quite pleased with it. I am dyeing my Magnoli shirt again, to match the NH color. This way I have a shirt for rough and tumble work, when I don't want to risk permanently damaging the NH one. Don't get me wrong, that's not because the NH is not tough.... it's simply protecting a more expensive shirt! My Magnoli shirt has softened up a great deal with all the washings and dye jobs I've done to it. But, it still has more of a dress shirt look and overall quality to it. I'm glad I have it, and have certainly enjoyed wearing it all this time. I do wish Noel had been making his shirts again when I bought the Magnoli one though. But, this way I now have "The Shirt" and a good backup. Thanks as well for mentioning Gizmo in those pics. I figured you would like shots with him in it, more than most... given you have a similar pup yourself. Ken

Thaks for that info, RB. Without getting "Brokeback" here, I just want to say those shirts fit you and G-Mann really well; especially for being off-the-rack orders. As for Gizmo, ::still laughing:: it seems we shop at the same security outlet for guard dogs. If you could have heard me the day Mrs. Tone said she "found" a Chihuahua and wanted to bring him home. I put up a fuss like you wouldn't believe. "I don't want some yippy, rat-looking, lap dog!" "We don't need a stupid Chihuahua." "NO! Find someone there who'll take him home with them!" Of course she brought him home "just for the weekend". It only took about five minutes for me to decide he could stay. Now, I can't imagine not having one. Gizmo looks like a mix. Part Chihuahua, part.........? Am I close?

Thanks, and nothing "Brokeback" taken here... I have no idea what else he has in him. He was listed as a Chihuahua only, when he came along. I think hs has some manchester or something else in him, as he doesn't have all the classic features and is bigger than most. He is super friendly to everybody, but man... does he ever love my wife/Schley (pronounced Shelly)/Tumblebug (at the forum). He likes to be right next to her, whenever possible. Of course, that's not a bad place to be.... if I may say so myself. I couldn't imagine not having Gizmo around, so I know just what you mean. I had a field spaniel mix, named Pepper that lived to be 20 years old. He was another super great dog/friend/family member too. I know that's a really long time for a dog to live, but I can only hope for the same with Gizmo. He's 9 now. How old is your dog.... Wigs, is it? Thanks again, Ken

Funny how they favor Mom, isn't it? Yes, Wigs is a momma's boy also.
Wigs is short for Piglet. (Figure that one out.) ;D We think he's maybe five or six.

I've been trying to work out if Noel does custom shirts, I know he does custom trousers at a breathtaking price. Anyone got a price for a custom shirt?

He has ones already made in small, medium and large? I wear a large as well. This is good to know when if I ever have the money to order one. Maybe I can have my wife get me one for Christmas!

Noel offers two sleeve lengths in a couple of the sizes, as an added level of sizing. If you have his price chart, it lists that on it. When I ordered, he asked me to send my shirt measurements, so he could determine which one would be the best fit.
If anyone wants his price list... just email him. I would have added it and his contact info a long time ago. But, he never responded that it was ok to do so. I don't want to post his email address, as it would open him up to spam from those web-bots.
So, if anyone wants the email address... PM me. I will check with him again about adding his product info.
Ken

I have the list. Thanks.

KT, I was responding about the sizing and offerings in general. I have no idea if he would do a custom shirt or now, but you could email him about it. I didn't mean to imply anything about the customization, as I don't know. I was more answering Pitfall's mention of the sizes. I wouldn't want to inadvertantly lead you in the wrong direction.. Ken
