Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could help me to find a jacket similar in style to this brown jacket worn by Ashton Kutcher in the movie The Butterfly Effect (2004).

I'm a big fan of the vintage western style of it, and as far as I can tell the material looks to be suede. I've had a look at some suede western shirt jackets which seem to be quite similar, although they are almost all EXTREMELY expensive, as suede typically is.
Is it possible to find a jacket with a different but similar style and cheaper material, or am I better off just biting the bullet and going for a higher quality but much more expensive option.

Thanks :)

I have one along these lines from Orvis:



However, it is expensive like you correctly observed. Here is a shot of me wearing mine
