I want Indiana Jones type trousers, what should i buy as alternative?

[VictorC]

I am looking for Indys trousers, but not sure what to go for. I think his are wool, but buying cotton trousers is more appropriate or doable i would think.

But would i be looking for a combat type trouser or Chino? Theyve got back pockets with a flap, and most trousers i see havent got the flap.

What colour is closest as well? I know his are called pinks, but what alternative colour is best? Im thinking light brown, sand type colours.

Are you looking for something that's actually rugged?

You need to register at IndyGear's Club Obi-Wan for more discussion of this than you can imagine. In the past some have found flap pocket options at Land's End, Eddie Bauer, etc. Also look at Magnoli Clothiers.

Todd's costumes is working on some Indy pants if you can wait another month or so.

Not sure what you mean, but i just want the look and the style. For summer wear really and adventure look. I have got a similar grey shirt and i just want to complete the look really. I have got a web belt and brown boots, and even a panama hat, although differnt to Indys.
