"This vintage leather jacket was made in the late 1940s by Kit Karson Indian Scout sportswear. It is made of goatskin, in a half-belt cossack jacket style. The distinctive pleats of the pocket conceal handwarmers with the flapped cargo pockets. The jacket has a pin lock bell shaped Conmar zipper."

When I saw the jacket, I thought 60s. The liner reminds me of those nice fidelities I have. One of my favorites is the very restrain "cat eye" angle of the front pockets. Funny, the angle almost is unnoticeable and lead me to believe it was a production discrepancy. But I have seen other fidelities with a much noticeable pocket angle.
