I found my jacket at Goodwill for $10. However, I'd suggest this Raiders jacket by B@MJ. batmj.com/indiana-jones-jacket-in-raiders-of-the-lost-ark-style-p-6.htmlIt's not entirely accurate, though, and it's $100. BTW, why so cheap? With only a little more saving, you can get a Todd's jacket for $150. For that money, you get a GREAT jacket made out of real leather, and very accurate to boot. Steven |

Yeah I think Todd's is a great buy for the money but I believe he has sold out of Large and XLarge at least for now.

Try eBay. Search Indiana Jones jacket. There will be a ton of similar, A2 type jackets.

Steven how did you get an accurate jacket from a goodwill It's not exactly accurate, per se. I bought it because it looked like leather, was the right color, and happened to be my size. It was a blessing found at Goodwill, like all Goodwill finds.  There are no pockets or action pleats on my jacket, it's a tad bit too long, and it's made of pleather. It's got some weight, but has ripped in a few places, like near the elbow. For now, it's good enough for me, and perhaps you can find a jacket that looks like leather, is the right color, and fits you great at your Goodwill. (It may take a few trips, though) Steven |

If you are okay with a needle and thread, or know someone who is, Todd has some seconds available for $80. www.toddscostumes.com/product/356BW/Bantu-Wind-Jacket/-Josh |

Todd's now as factory goofs Indy jackets for $99Bucks even if there a little big in the yoke you cant go wrong for $99 I picked up one of Todd's "Bantu Wind" jackets last week. Actually, the yoke is NOT lower than the Todd's standard. The shoulder seams are pushed forward (the factory decided to "correct" the pattern  ) making the yoke appear lower. It is still 5.5" from the collar stand, like the standards. Plus the "Bantu Wind" jackets (as Todd has been calling them) use a different lambskin than his others. Much tougher, more grainy, and slightly goat-like. I absolutely love my new jacket (and it only cost me $99 + shipping). |
