I got this as an early Christmas present this weekend. I was at Goody's, and noticed a jacket similar to Indy's that was on sale. Original price was $130, but I got it for $48.
It has several non-accurate things (side-entry pockets, waistline, no straps), but for the price, I love it!
It's made by a company called Cougar; anyone ever heard of them?

Re: A close-enough from Goody's
I would say that is the next step to SA from regular bomber jackets the lack of a knit sleeve and bottom is much better {IMHO} than a straight bomber,don't get me wrong, I love my bomber jacketIndyextra1 wrote:I got this as an early Christmas present this weekend.

Well, I don't watch Seinfeld, so I wouldn't know.Castor Dioscuri wrote:For that price, it's a steal! This is not a bad thing, but isn't that the same jacket Jerry wears on Seinfeld? I know he had an A-2 like jacket that also had epaulettes on it.
They also had some that were distressed brown, like LC and KotKS, but they didn't have the front pockets. They also had some in brown suede.
