: : : Thanks.

: : I don't think anyone really knows, except that it appears to have been his original outfit in the brief time you see him. As to the scarf, it just looked like a brown wool scarf of non description
manufacture to me. Regards. Michaelson

: I agree with Michaelson. Lucasfilm probably just dipped into the old archives and pulled out a full set of Indy clothes from one of the films. That's what they did when they shot extra stormtrooper and jawa crowd footage for the Star Wars Special Edition-those costumes were all vintage outfits from the original trilogy. Ford is also in such great shape that his size probably hasn't changed since TOD when he noticibly buffed up for his many shirtless scenes; he could easily fit into his old wardrobe IMHO.

: Hope this helps.

I saw Ford in an interview when asked if he kept one of the indy hats for himself and he said "Yes, it's in the back of my closet". Perhaps he used his own hat for the scene, and maybe he has a coat, too. It would make some sense, since they filmed that scene on his Wyoming property. Who knows?
