Penneys Surf Breaker

[RustySpurVintage]

So I know this probably isn't much, but I just thought it was super cool! It looks like a 60s or 70s (???) JC Penney's Surf Breaker jacket. Cool wooden balls on the draw string. Has a pocket on the back side!? Weird. Any thoughts? Decade?

Is there a hood inside the pocket?
I have a fun jacket from around this era, with that feature, if it is perhaps located at the back neck?

The pocket contains....earrings! Ha! The pocket is on the lower right side at the bottom. Weird.

Ha ha!
Bonus gift.
May we see the back view please?

i'm just guessing here, but it may be a (board) wax pocket. surfer could wax the board (with right hand) then reach back and store the wax in the pocket out of the way. novelty idea.

cool jacket, Adam! i'd say 60s, maybe 70s...the wooden balls lean it more 70s...

Mary -- Ah ha! That makes sense. Now I've gotta figure out how to value this thing. There's basically nothing like it online that I can find.

Cute jacket! Great find - I agree with late '60s, perhaps early '70s. Love the novelty pocket.
