Jacket identification?

Watching this on eBay, but I think I'm going to pass on it. I have too many jackets as it is, several are better than this one, and I expect this will end up going for more than I'd want to pay for it. But I'm curious what it is! Can anyone identify the maker/model?

I don't know who the maker is, but that is one cool looking jacket - both the style and the character of the leather.

Looking again, I think you are right. And I know riri zippers are a thing. My mistake.
I guess the French label miss-read their branding also when they named their jacket model with it :)

I thought that the zipper said RiRi.

I think so too. It's RiRi. And they're really good by the way. One of the best ones outthere. It seems like all the German makers use them. This jacket is really beautiful!

Looks like all the zippers have been replaced. Zipper piping as well. You can see the stitch holes and besides, doesn't make sense that the only thing on the jacket that hasn't aged are the zipper piping.

Retrospectively, perhaps it could be an older jacket...

Yeah. I'm thinking that it could still be 90s vintage. The 90s were a shockingly long time ago. Plenty of time to distress and go through a zipper replacement and relining.
