Are these examples of “Ricky” jackets? Or just windbreakers?

The following pictures were taken in 1972 and the 1950s respectively

Are the jackets worn examples of Ricky jackets - or just windbreakers?

What separated a Ricky from a windbreaker?

And was there a particular “aesthetic” or fashion element that Ricky jackets belonged to?
