[Jacket] Harrison Ford wore this fedora and leather jacket in Raiders of the Lost Ark and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, the 1980s adventure films about an archaeologist who goes on quests for lost treasures. Indiana Jones's resourceful and ironic heroism endeared him to movie - goers.

The films sparked a widespread demand for the kind of clothing the hero wore, and Americans have made these symbols of adventure part of their daily lives.
