Why don't the manufacturers advertise their jackets for themselves?
This is not an easy question. Some of the original manufacturers are pleased to offer their movie jacket replicas. Often they do not advertise specific jackets due to copyright issues prohibiting advertising trademarks
Others vendors are just not so anxious to deal with the public, and will do so only when asked - and grudgingly at that.
Still others will not make replicas of their famous jackets at all.
Finally, some have gone out of business and their companies no longer exist. FILMJACKETS.COM will point you in the right direction!

What is the point of FILMJACKETS.COM?
Jackets that you can see in the movie theaters and on television have always held an appeal to many people. There are so many places you can get jackets that claim to be replicas of your favorite jacket, but a "replica" means different things to different people. Some are looking for jackets made by the original manufacturer that made them for their movie of choice. Others are happy with a "close-enough" knock-off. What we want to do here is provide one website where you can find all of this information and make an informed decision for yourself.
