Jacket with very little known past?

My wife and I found a motorcycle jacket in a small town in Wisconsin while antique shopping. Here is what I know, it has an English language care tag, but a black tag with gold letters that states in German. Real calf skin leather.
It is in excellent shape, and I'm guessing it was made sometime in the 1970's.

Any help or information on the maker would be great.

The zippers all have KKK stamped on them.

That is it, I've looked for any and alll marks or other tags.

Thanks in advance

Hopefully, you mean YKK - otherwise you may have a jacket styled by Klansmen. I have seen this style before though. I think that style was common in the 50's. You can see similar styles here.
