Hey, sorry for resurrecting this topic, but could you help me age a jacket I just picket up? This one is too big on me, so I'll probably part with it. Nevertheless, I'd like to know more about it, as I suspect this one might be almost 50 years old. The label doesn't have anything written below the Cooper sign, but there's also no white panel with the size, but another tag by the main label with the size number (as per picture). The zipper is the chrome Ideal one.
It has the purple-ish knits and the tan-olive-ish lining. The leather, however, doesn't look too russet to me. It has the Velcro name tag on chest.
That looks like one of the pre-1988 Cooper jackets. These were for sale at USAF base exchanges a year or so before USAF reintroduced the Saddlery jackets. They were available with blank nameplate (as this one is) or without it
