indiana  +  clothing.

to  say  indiana’s  attire  is  .  .  .  stuffy,  would  be  an  understatement.  often  clad  in  layers  of  varying  shades  of  brown,  indiana  often  looks  more  like  his  father,  &  less  like  a  teenager.  he  dresses  like  a  mini  academic  -  which,  really,  isn’t  too  surprising.

teenagers  as  we  know  them  today,  with  their  own  fashion  senses  &  styles,  didn’t  really  exist  until  the  subcultures  of  the  1950s.  up  until  then,  teenagers  usually  dressed  the  same  as  adults,  &  indiana  -  accompanying  his  father  on  many  a  lecture  circuit  -  dresses  just  like  henry  walton  jones,  senior.  tweed  jackets,  sweaters,  ties,  shirts  with  cuffs  buttoned  -  he  always  looks  well  -  presented  (  has  to,  of  course,  with  the  circles  they  seem  to  move  in  ).  however,  he  never  misses  a  chance  to  make  an  outfit  his  own.  whether  it’s  the  addition  of  the  hopi  woven  belt  to  his  scouting  uniform,  or  mismatched  socks  under  polished  red  wings  or  alden  boots,  there  always  that  little  bit  of  individuality  ;  that  small  act  of  rebellion.

surprisingly,  or  perhaps  merely  due  to  constant  practice,  indiana  can  move  rather  easily  &  swiftly  in  his  many  layers.  when  he  doesn’t  have  to  be  dressed  up,  however,  his  outfit  of  choices  is  a  button-down  shirt  with  the  sleeves  rolled  up,  trousers,  &  his  boots  —  ease  of  movement  without  sacrificing  style.  woollen  cardigans  may  also  be  worn  -  but  not  when  he’s  out  adventuring.

his  later  adoption  of  fedora‘s  style  of  dress  -  combined  with  his  professorial  dress  sense  -  implies  an  insecurity  as  to  who  he  really  is  :  a  boy  adventurer,  or  a  budding  academic  ?  (  we  know  from  the  previous  films,  &  the  rest  of  crusade  that  this  is  something  indiana  never  really  comes  to  terms  with,  &  he  constantly  flirts  between  both  worlds,  though  he  seems  far  more  comfortable  in  one  than  the  other  ).  as  far  as  i  can  tell,  fedora's  leather  jacket  in  1912  is  rather  anachronistic  -  the  jacket  has  its  roots  in  the  world  wars,  &  then  was  marketed  as  a  fashion  item  in  the  late  1920s.  whilst,  canonically,  both  of  these  suit  adult  indiana,  they  don’t  quite  explain  why  or  how  fedora,  in  1912,  was  wearing  one.  however,  i  don’t  really  care,  as  indiana  doesn’t  completely  adopt  fedora's  dress  sense  until  he’s  a  little  older.  he  does  however  adopt  the  bullwhip  pretty  quickly  after  the  encounter  with  the  lion,  &  can  often  be  found  wearing  the  fedora  that  was  gifted  to  him.  the  leather  jacket  is  a  wwi  edition  ;  i  don’t  care  what  the  you.ng  indi.ana  jon.es  chronicles  have  to  say  on  the  matter,  quite  frankly.

in  any  other  non-canon  timeline  verse,  indiana’s  outfits  are  .  .  .  pretty  much  the  same.  a  well-polished  mini-professor  with  a  rebellious  streak,  he  adopts  the  jacket  &  fedora  earlier  than  in  canon,  but  his  main  attire  is  still  button  down  shirt,  trousers,  &  boots  —  jeans  are  something  indiana  very  rarely  wears,  as  he  finds  them  more  constricting  rather  than  anything  else.  he  fits  very  neatly  into  the  ‘  dark  aca.demia  ’  aesthetic.

please  bring  him  home  to  ur  mother  ,,,  they’ll  love  him  &  how  nicely  he  dresses,  i  promise.

indiana  in  the  stranger  things  verse  is  no  different  to  his  normal  verse  ;  he’s  getting  himself  involved  in  things  that  don’t  concern  him  &  he  doesn’t  trust  adults

“I spent my life folded between the pages of books. In the absence of human relationships I formed bonds with paper characters. I lived love and loss through stories threaded in history; I experienced adolescence by association. My world is one interwoven web of words, stringing limb to limb, bone to sinew, thoughts and images all together. I am a being comprised of letters, a character created by sentences, a figment of imagination formed through fiction.”

- Tahereh Mafi, Shatter Me
