I havent seen Top Gun in a few years, but I seem to recall that the collar on Cruises G-1 was real mouton. Seems a bit unrealistic considering mouton was phased out in favour of that synthetic crap in 69-70, and Top Gun was set in the mid 80s. Guess the filmmakers at least knew what looked good, and what didnt.

Jackets for the new movie were made by Tony Nowak, and are cowhide.

That's correct. And might I say - thank God they've moved from lamb. I was hoping for goat this time, but cow will do. Some of the more anal fans think the new jacket is a violation - pretty funny.

Who made it ?
The official Indiana Jones site has video of the costumer talking about who made the jackets and hats. Regardless of what else is written or said, Tony Nowak made the Indy IV jackets and Steve Delk and Marc Kitter of Adventurebilt made the hats.Mark P said:The Sunday Times in the UK today says that Belstaff (was British, now an Italian company trying to do a 'Burberry') made the jacket for the latest Indiana Jones movie. Right or wrong I don't know but it sounds like good product placement.
