Sidestrap placement...

Post by JockThePilot »

I have a finicky question about the sidestraps on Indy's jacket. (isn't that what we're here for? :lol: )
i know that in Raiders, the straps originated right by the pockets. was this true in the other two films? There are two reasons I ask this question.
1) The US wings jackets have the strapped placed further back from the pocket.
2) Some secondary materials (i.e.: paintings, comic book covers, novel covers (specifically Dance of the Giants)) have straps that apparently start further away from the pockets. But maybe this was done after the US wings jackets were released, and that is what those paintings were based on.

I was going to get a wested, but now I am thinking of a US wings, since they seem to be built a bit more solidly. Also, does anyone know if disney is currently stocking the US wings jackets?
thanks is advance
