And before anyone asked no the vest is not red in the movie. it has been one of the long running debates with fans and after seeing it clear on the big screen there is no doubt that its burnt orange.

Great costume emhmark2. Some inaccuracies you should be aware of. Too many buttons on the vest. There is a button on each seam of the puffs in the film. The vest is red. During filming of the 50s scenes the production used yellowing overlays on the lighting. To give it that warm feeling. This accounts for the discoloration of the vest. Watch the mall scene to get a more accurate representation of the color. Since the 80s stuff was shot without the overlays on the lights. Magnoli's jacket is good, although Fox's is gray and navy. Jeans are off. The bruins are incorrect. If you notice your screencap there is a piece of fabric that runs over the toe portion of the shoe. The watch should be a CA-50 the CA-53 was used in the sequels. Fox had gray socks in the original, and white in the sequels. I'm a stickler for detail and accuracy. Check a couple posts back for a look at my Mcfly '85. Not 100% but I'll get there. Oh and get that flier printed on blue paper.
 
Cheers dhennick99

The Jacket is inaccurate, the shirt is off (However, it IS a Shah Safari), the vest is a burnt orange JC Penney St. John's Bay Puffer Vest (actual color is called "Pumpkin Spice"). I found that you have to get the vest 1 size larger than you normally would wear to get it to hang on your body in a screen accurate way . I am currently looking at getting vintage Guess blue jeans. Yes, I am wearing a crimson undershirt but it doesn't show too well. I hope u enjoy.

Thank you so much Risu! That is a very kind thing to do and I look forward to taking you up on it as soon as I can. Also, I would love to see more costumes if other folks out here have them. :)
 
I cant believe the jc pennys vest was so cheap i just ordered one i couldn't resist i bout some of the newer "air bruens" a while back not quite the real thing but with some white filler to cover the air bubble it was close enough for me.
 
All great. I am always waiting for a screen accurate 2015 costume. I will be close in a few weeks but also MILES away on screen accurate. That jacket is a real white whale.
