Indyesque jacket
Has anyone ever seen Hitchcock's "The Trouble with Harry"? Royal Dano's character has quite the Indy get-up and I was wondering if anybody could I.D. the jacket. I don't have any really good screenshots, but maybe someone else here does. It looks like a classic highwayman to me, but I'm not sure.

Standard work wear for decades. These days it's a baseball cap with a nylon windbreaker...
Probably a horse hide half-belt, called a uitlity jacket. There were many thousands sold all over the world.

Agreed....the 'uniform' of the steel worker and railroad man for decades.

I recently read the biography about Clint Eastwood and it contained a foto where he wears a leatherjacket,he looks about 15 year-old.The point here is:the jacket looks very much like Indiana Jones Jacket!!!
Re: Indyesque jacket
Marq, it's the other way around, the Indy jacket looks like the Eastwood one since the style was borrowed for the film.
