On the Waterfront Plaid Jacket

[jmillz15]

Hello everyone. I just watched On the Waterfront for the first time last night, and really liked brando's red and black wool plaid jacket. Do you know of anyone making a copy, or something similar ? It's summer I know, but this obviously would be for the fall. Thanks !

here's the jacket for a reference.

That jacket is a horribly busy mess and resembles nothing of the simplicity of the "original" in the photo.

Ralp Lauren has made a very similar one, a friend has it. Looks great, rather short, simple, good quality. Ebay.

Huh? Brands from Wings & Horns to H&M have done buffalo check for at least 2 years now.

and brands like woolrich have been doing it for 150 years.

I've always wanted the garbstore version of the mackinaw, and it's on sale now. Not in my size, of course, but I think it's so nice.
