Yeah, in the Justin Bruening interview, he said he had like 35 jackets for KR...Wow! However, I think he said that they were not leather. I don't totally remember. I may be wrong.

I like the idea of him having the jacket like his dad.

Can't wait to see what it looks like.
Glad to see they are trying to capture the feel of TOS, just hope it doesn't turn out cheesy.

Yea I heard that too...

I was a fan of MT's dress sense in the Feb show, which seemed to update MK's leather with a 21st century version and a 'hoodie' underneath. Now, whilst personally I would not wear a 'hoodie', I did think this was a fantastic update to what TOS fans would be used to seeing...

JB did say its NOT leather but IS black...

I suppose a tribute is a tribute...

I guess we'll still have to be thankful for that jacket, whatever it may be.

Honestly I grew tired of seeing him wearing plain bright-coloured shirts week by week already....

Everyone is saying the jacket was a hoodie in the pilot but I never noticed it was. Does anyone have a screenshot to prove it?

Yeah, it wasn't a hoodie, just had a sort of big collar. The jacket could be something similar to that but probably made out of something synthetic so as to not to incur the wrath of the PETA nuts. :P

Half the idiots in PETA own leather jackets so they can't go nuts over that. They stick to harassing people with fur coats. The only thing PETA is good for is nudity anyway.

I live in Norfolk, VA where PETA headquarters is located. The people from PETA I've actually met in person, and I've met quite a few, won't even wear a leather belt or leather shoes let alone a full leather jacket, so I don't know where you're getting your information. I'm neither condoning nor condemning PETA but I can't stand it when people make generalizations about people and groups of people they've never met. Anyway, this is a Knight Rider fan site and not a PETA bashing site and it's Knight Rider that I hope to read about here. Thanks.

I know how PETA feels about leather and fur, because my aunt and my uncle are both animal activists. So even though I'm not an animal activist myself, I do support helping pets, like cats and dogs, and when someone makes fun of vegetarians, or those who support animal rights, it does insult me, too. This is a place for KR fans to meet, not to bash or attack other people.
