I would wear it as a sleeping pants. Just kidding!

As a collector I would not to wear it, unless I got two. Actually the price included shipping to Taipei which costed me around US$300. If I wanna wear it as a usual pants, then I would consider to buy another one or make another one for myself at low price. I still think that is a good item and that is a real stuff from the man who did the original for the Indy movies, just like Aldon shoes or Wested leather! This is the most important thing that we must know

: Just a thought...

: OK, the jacket is designed to be "abused" and it bears up very well. Boots too, etc.

: But would you wear a pair of pants at this price?? Wool can tear more easily than some materials (I've had woolen pants in the past). You could have a rip in those in no time. As Indy pants, they'd be cool but what if you wanted to wear them as dress pants with a tear or two?

: As a collectable item, cost isn't the issue as long as you get what you want. But personally I would have these pants put in a safe!

: Azuma, are you going to wear your Indy pants?

: Just curious,
