Vintage Schott NYC Cowhide Leather Jacket?

[dwrg]

Hey Folks!

I recently located and purchased this jacket on ebay and wanted to see if anyone on can help identify the era, model, and original retail price on this Schott NYC cowhide leather jacket. I checked all pockets and I'm only able to locate the Schott NYC tag on the inside lining back and the tag stating it's genuine cowhide leather shell, with a wool blend body lining, and nylon fiberfill / polyester . It is a very heavy and very warm jacket with nice stiff cowhide leather - and fits like a glove!
I'm attaching photos of the front, back, inside, and all of the tags that I could locate.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Sincerely,
DW

The Schott label places it in the 1990's. Model/price I can't help you with though

The inside tag, the inside pockets (especialy the "Zippo" one) and the absence of the "made in USA" tag make me think that it is a european licensed Schott jacket, typicaly made in Asia and of inferior quality compared to the real USA line. On the second hand market in France (where they were mostly distributed), they can be found for around 100/200 €. These cowhide models are still better (more substancial, better fit) than the european Schott lamb ones that can also be found in large amounts on the european second hand market.

@Manolito is right, it's a Schott licensed jacket for the European market.

It's an older jacket too, from when Schott had absolutely no involvement with the production of these. They even clumsily admitted to not even knowing what was being sold under their license.

The market is extremely saturated with these and the sooner you get rid it, the better. General public is slowly picking up on the difference between the USA made Schott jackets and these licensed ones which reflects in the second hand pricing.
