Starting to put together an accurate Steve Harrington costume from Stranger Things. Thought I'd post just a few of the accurate pieces, majority from the later half of season 2.

Any additional finds, feel free to share!
 
During season 1 and 2, Steve wears a Russian Soviet military style watch wristband (I believe his is a 16mm). similar ones are fairly common to find reproductions of on eBay. Steve's watch band also has noticeable white stitching while most have matching brown.

Steve's Nikes are the "Forest Gump" Nike Cortez. These shoes feature suede toe, lace and heel panels, and vintage Nike tagging on the tongue. These shoes also feature a unique Nike logo design on the heel.

One of the more well-known parts of Steve's attire is his Members Only jacket worn throughout the second half of the second season. The accurate colourway is the lighter 'silver grey' model as appose to the standard grey.

Great work so far, Cam! Certainly one of my favorite tv characters! In addition to those classic nylon Nike Cortez, he also wears what look like maybe the Nike Cortez ‘72 and a black and white pair. I’m not sure if either models have been confirmed or if the black and white pair were true vintage or a specific contemporary model, but figured they were worth a mention!

Then there’s his S3 Adidas Gazelle, with what look like aftermarket laces. And I’m not sure if it’s related to sizing or the angle of the photos, but the half moon shaped stitching at the front of the laces and also the shape of the toe panel seem to be different on Steve’s compared to the standard Gazelle. Thoughts?

I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on your thread! Love seeing more Stranger Things on here! Hope you’re all having a wonderful week!

It's worth noting that his member's only jacket is a modern one, not vintage. Identifiable by the zipper pull and the slim fit.
 
Hey guys, great to see this thread rolling on a nicely. I've managed to ID one of his many polo shirts he wears in season 1. It's a vintage Le Tigre.

I'm now trying to find the correct vest we wears towards the end of season 3. At first glance I thought it may have been a vintage Guess vest, as they've made a few with the same two tone construction. After looking for a while, I've ruled them out...at this point.

View attachment 1361650Can anyone help ID this jacket?
He also wore it in Season 3 when they were on the roof of the mall in the rain spying on the Russians in Ep 3.
This is a Style Auto vintage jacket. It’s a brand from the 80’s which made racing style jackets (Another jacket from the same brand was used for the “Cobra Kai” jackets in Karate Kid and Karate Kid II. You can find some on eBay. I managed to get one very similar to Steve’s for 20€. I showed mine in the pics, and yes as you can see he’s wearing it in the Season 4 new teaser too.

Sorry for my English, it’s not similar, it’s the actual same. I don’t know exactly the name of the model of the jacket as Style Auto made many, but this is the exact same one of Steve. I saw one on EBay for around 100$ I believe?

Good find! Thanks for the info, and in returnI also found some info that might help you make it more screen accurate.
As you can see they removed the brand's patch on the breast pocket and in the clear ID spot they put a different 80's brands tag on it.

Maybe they chose this tag because this brand has long since gone under and is difficult to find anything about (I tried because I thought this was the brand of the jacket).
But yeah if you want maybe you can find a close font and photoshop something to print out and put in your jackets ID sleeve :)

Here is a super close up (pretty fuzzy but still) of Steve's jacket showing the logo I mentioned above.
Source: I asked the paparazzi photographer that took the pictures of ST4 for a close up haha
