Walter Co. 1947 Motorcycle Jacket?

Hi I have this jacket and the label reads Walter Co. 1947...Not sure its that old ...The closure zipper is a Scoville, the pocket zippers are Talon but there is a ykk zipper on it as well...May be sixties? I cant seem to work out how to post a photo ...still trying

FWIW...I notice this jacket has a Donna Karan(fashion designer) label. I bought a used, DK deerskin DR which is gorgeous. I was skeptical when I bought it because of the designer label. It was made in US...not sure who, but high quality.

Not half bad for a 118 either. This place is just a couple miles down the road from me around Chicago and Ashland, been there forever. Had no idea they carried Schott.

My experience is Designer labels usually mean high quality up to mid 90s because the designer themselves were running things so they spare no expense. Lots of the labels became insolvent in late 90s. Most put the blame on the designers having no clue of the business side in particular cost management. Many labels have been taken over by conglomerates when they ran into financial difficulties. Those who survive like Ralph Lauren have to adapt usually to cutting manufacturing cost to maintain healthy gross profit margin.

I bought a DKNY men leather motorcycle vest at Harrods around 1992. It was the first season and the vest was made in USA. Next season, same vest, this time distressed, made in China.

Hefty asking price, but not out of whack.

These are rare extremely rare.

That seller has had better over the years and way cheaper. I still remember the cream vintage HERMES french cyclist jacket the seller had for sale, absolutely mind blowing.

Also to be honest...leather and Thailand. Such a warm and humid weather. I wouldn't trust anything coming from such a climate.

Be wary though, That's a women's jacket. Look at the buttoning side.
