If it's got YKK zips it's '80s or later. Looks like a classic cross-zip biker jacket in cowhide. Not sure on the maker. Is there no label?

My insight says...it needs this on the back:

Funny, was looking at Fox Creek leather yesterday, this could be it. They appear to place their maker’s label lower inside body lining. Checks out.

It looks like nice leather.

YKK brand became something, ‘em… during earlier 1980s, at least , you can make sure it is not mid-1970s.

Here's my mid 70s sears Leathershop.

Thanks for the correction, Marc - I hadn't seen a YKK zip that early.

Thank you, first time see YKK zip from 1970s.

You might have heard about East West Musical Instruments? The company started in 1967 and became famous for making hippie jacket with extravagant designs. Amongst their clientele were Janis Joplin and Elvis Presley.

Anyways, here's my unlined East West 'Barnstormer' which I think is from the late 60s or early 70s. It has Serval main and sleeves zippers.

Here's a lined version (not mine), probably mid 70s. It features a YKK.
