Re: Polo replica
Very nice!
Does the jacket have any searchable info on the labels?

Hi guys, this may seem a strange request, seeing what we normally do to MK3 jackets, but can someone provide a decent photo showing exactly how the hood is attached to the jacket? I have dyed my last remaining MK3 and it's hood (the hood was separated by the previous owner) black for a more urban-style jacket project that i am doing.
Many thanks!

It comes out of the zipper in the back of the collar.

Thanks for helping but i know that it does that, i need to see where exactly it is stitched. ie under top zipper lip or above the white inner liner etc.
A photo showing the join position is really what i am looking for.
Cheers!

I'll likely leave it khaki and make some WY variant. $14 Salvation Army store
Sorry no. Just care instructions.
Zipper open from back; hood up

Hey folks, I haven't posted here in a dog's age, but I've been slowly making a Brett costume and recently hit on a pretty good match for the iconic aloha shirt:
The blue Nostromo trousers, sneakers, hat and jacket were all assembled by me. I'm prepping to take a second stab at the jacket actually. This is a seriously comfy costume, too bad most folks have no idea who I'm supposed to be. I wore this (with a previous shirt) for Halloween a few years back and folks thought I was either Fletch (ironic!), Michael Gross' "Burt Gummer" from Tremors! Still, I hit up a midnight double feature of Alien and Aliens in this and will probably wear it for Alien: Covenant too.
Anyway, this shirt is modern judging by the tag inside, so there must be more out there!

Ha! Yes, Harry really has a look to him. He also had ten years on me when they shot Alien in '78. Here's hoping (for my wife's sake) that I don't look that gaunt at 50!

thank you! yeah the shirt... not yet but i intend to make one. to find an acceptable basic shirt is nearly as hard as finding the mk3 jacket. :rolleyes
I found numerous examples at H&M. There's also the Dickie's work shirt.
