40th Anniversary of Raiders of the Lost Ark- Celebrating 40 Years of a Classic Adventure and Jacket that Created the Indiana Jones Character

June 12, 2021 marks the 40th Anniversary of the release of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

The only thing that is more recognizable than Indiana Jones with his Fedora hat is the Indiana Jones Leather Jacket that helped create that swashbuckler, charismatic character. The reason that Indiana Jones’ character appealed across all generations was because of the 1940’s period it represented.

The reason Indiana Jones’ character was so appealing to audiences who saw Raiders of the Lost Ark was that Indiana Jones represented a period when common individuals became the Greatest Generation. Who can’t recall movie clips that captured that charisma of pilots and flight crews returning from their missions?

The Flying Tigers that flew the P-40 Warhawk that became legendary. My first model plane that actually flew was a P-40 that I spent hours flying in vacant field around Nixa, MO.

The Movie Raiders of the Lost Ark helped solidify stories you’ve read or heard of our parents, grandparents, uncles, and aunts who recounted their larger than life experiences during World War II. I believe this was the very reason that George Lucas and Philip Kaufman developed their story line during this era of World War II. They even emphasized it with an iconic image of that era with the version of the A-2 Leather Flight Jacket.

The images of the Indiana Jones Style Jacket and the A-2 Leather Flight Jacket are based on a classic and nostalgic jacket that is synonymous with adventure. Our Leather Jackets that we offer recreate that charismatic look and feel and can be worn with either khakis or blue jeans. Both of these leather jackets have became my go-to sports jacket for business or for a weekend adventure.
