I like Stephen Boyd's jacket in Seven Thunders, I've never figured what it is, it's a button up with a fur View attachment 85209or mouton collar

Probably an Aero.

That’s it, we’ll done that man!

River. May not be leather, quick, call the moderator.

Another Aero? Maybe Lost Worlds ‘cause no apparent signs of rot, decay, predation or wear. Made only for real men.

Made only for real men.

Not zombies?

FWIW -- I doubt anyone could roll up the sleeves of a Lost Worlds jacket.

Spied this young, emerging jacket collector. He has Jorge's budget but not his style...

The war lover, classic

The original 'Buzz Rickson'!

Politics or otherwise, I don't think he even studied Doolittle -- or maybe he just can't push away from every other serious role he's played.

I'll pose this question -- I wonder who could have been better -- okay, anyone -- but really pulled it off.

Anyone remember Aaron Eckhart as Doolittle in Midway 2019? I can't -- and I always enjoy his performances.

I was surprised by Woody Harrelson as Nimitz, but I still don't think he completely pulled it off.

Stanley Tucci...

Forgot I even posted that... Elon probably has to sell that jacket now...

Stanley Tucci...

Hmm... dunno. Adolph Eichman and Frank Nitti to Jimmy? Tucci is a great actor, but he always seems to bring an intensity to his characters I don't see in Doolittle.

Indy 5, can it ever improve on ‘Raiders’…?

Looks like they're making an attempt to age the jacket as much as Indy! Good continuity, that.

I like the collar on that one. Looks like someone was taking their design cues from Monarch.

Looks like it’s time to put up your Indy jackets for sale. Indy 5 should promote the sales nicely .
