This is a very interesting picture.

Given the fact that the role of Harrison Ford has become so iconic that his clothing is referred to and widely available as "The Indy Boots", "The Indy jacket" etc., it is heartbreaking how bad his character has aged in the latest movie: a shockingly bad fit on an oversized lump of leather...

On the other hand, I quite like the silent nod to the equally iconic "Johnny-Jacket" that Shia is wearing. it´s nowhere near a Durable, not even a faithful repro, but it seems like a nice little gesture towards film and/or clothing nerds.

I recently joined an Indiana Jones fanatic forum and the wealth of knowledge for all things Indy is vast. Apparently Tony Nowak is /was a producer of some serious repro Indy Jackets and he built the one Shia is wearing in CS. His jackets are still highly sought after in that world.

I didn’t know that.

AFAIK, the original jackets were made by Belstaff.
The “Mutt” jacket was then commercially available to the general public. At that time, Belstaff had turned into the fashion company it is today. Quality kind of okay but vastly inferior to what is the norm in our parts. I am not surprised that there would be a market for a serious repro.
