James Arness, who portrayed Marshal Matt Dillon in "Gunsmoke," reportedly used around 20 buckskin jackets throughout the series. The jackets were integral to his character's rugged Western look and were designed to withstand the rigors of filming. Each jacket was tailored for different scenes, reflecting the wear and tear of a lawman in the Old West.
