    I'm thinking 80s but wonder if I'm looking at a 70s date?
    Also, do you think this is coyote fur?
    Thanks for any direction.

    Hi Lauren, That's a nice jacket. The fur trim is raccoon fur. I am on the fence about dating. I am leaning more towards 80s because of the quilted look in the back of the sleeves, the banding in the cuffs and also bottom of the jacket. I looked at patterns for 70s ski jackets and noticed that the majority of them did not have these features. I am sure of the fur type. Let's see what others have to say about dating. :)

    This is a great jacket! I'm thinking more 80s too, because of the blousy shape. The 70s fashion in ski wear was more for skinny tight. Things got more voluminous in jacket and ski suit tops in the 80s.
