Hi there!
Can anyone please tell me, what kind of jacket Bob Ford is wearing in the scene where Jesse and Zee sit at the table in the James/Howard house in Missouri? Is it supposed to be an army jacket or shirt? Or is he supposed to wear a sort of Cowboy/Gunfighter outfit? Thanks, Teri

So obvious -- a short sleeve, patent leather straight jacket with a turtle neck and 2 war surplus panataloons. Now, they're gone to other festivals of verisimilitude.

Reference is inscrutable because there is nothing to scrute.
