Can't wait to see the final result, I think it's gonna be better than 2018 headgoonie at this point with so much research that has been done.
Every part of Marty McFly's outfit from Back to The Future Part 1 (Mostly focused on the 1984 Guess denim jacket)

To be entirely frank, the existing jacket would look better even if it just had the right size snaps. The ones it has (like in the product photo) are WAY too small.

Maybe some measurements are off, yeah, but it's still decent. Specifically the top yoke parts, those look good. I will say the waistband is totally wrong lol

I'm looking at some pictures right now of MJF wearing the jacket. Something I've wondered is why are the sleeves so long. I know it's the 80s but like I think it's a bit excessive sometimes it looks in some pictures. The good thing is you can roll it up and it looks fantastic. I have some weird kinda ugly GUESS 80s jacket and you can't really do that it looks terrible.

What jackets do you have?

Yeah, the only thing for me is just the denim doesn't look that accurate to GUESS jackets.

To be honest I have no idea what it is. I can send a picture real quick.

It just isn't the right weave! Guess used a very particular dense low-stretch crossweave denim. You can actually still buy it today, but to get a "free" sample is like $30 shipping and the minimum yardage is enormous.

Oh wow lol. I just hope this one is more accurate to an actual GUESS jacket. Like I think the inside of it should look like a GUESS jacket.

Just thought of putting Mitas' Sears jacket here, but the file is, of course, too big.

Never seen this. The waistband also looks like the 86 jacket.

Looks better cause of the way I put it lol. But yeah I think aside from the sleeves it looks good.

The 84 jacket is speculated to have only been sold in North California. The 83 was probably sold in a slightly larger range.
