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!!!

Marq, it's the other way around, the Indy jacket looks like the Eastwood one since the style was borrowed for the film.
