Headgoonie Back to the Future 40th Anniversary Denim Jacket

[XatD26]

This was last Halloween. The jacket is a bootleg. Gray acid wash and black leather. Smelled amazing when I washed it.

Hahaha yours is definitely better than mine's. I actually did Marty in 2022. I didn't even wear a vest. I like the one without the vest more.

To be honest, I'd look a hell of a lot more like Michael if I wasnt so tall.

Well I mean MJF is short though

That's what I meant. I'm about six inches taller than he was in BTTF.

Is it me or is the indigo color way stronger on the left one? The left one is a newer image compared to the one on the right.

The one they used in that video turned out really decent. If it's the same jacket as the other one, that's a miracle.

Film also may have some alterations, sharpening on the jacket.

It looks like headgoonie just saw this and was like "yeah this is the correct color" For the 2025 one. Like I said, I actually like the indigo personally. But it terms of accuracy color it's not good. There could be a method to maybe correct the color but that could ruin the jacket. I think if you fade Headgoonie's jacket on the indigo parts it will probably look more accurate.

We really shouldn't trust their stock images too much. Remember they had weird coloring in their pictures.

I have a screenshot directly from the movie of Marty wearing it in direct California sun. I'll see if I can find it. This is a BTS photo.

This is from May 5th, it looks almost like the images the indigo is no that strong. It's likely they are tampering with the images. The color on the Instagram Reel seems to be the real one. Notice how the blue in this photo looks brighter than usual. Then again, I'm just theorizing.

Do they only have one jacket to use for promo photos? It's the same exact one in every photo.

I agree. I think this is the closest color or this one Jennifer posted on Instagram:

It's not THAT BLUE. If they redo it and washed the same way as the 2018, just with a blue base rather than a gray base, it'd be perfect in my eyes.

It's possible, it looks a little too baggy too. But maybe they're sizing up a bit. Looking back at other Headgoonie jackets and how it fits on other people it seems like it's fine.

Yeah it matches better with other GUESS jackets

That's true, I think the key here is that Headgoonie's jacket just doesn't look faded so it looks kind of strange. In the movie they probably faded the jacket a bit so it looked like it's been worn before.

What HG should do is give style options:
- Stock GUESS with film colors
- Stock GUESS with real colors
- Movie mods with film colors
- Movie mods with real colors
"Movie mods" being the lining and removal of the patch.
