1940’s (?) jacket ID help

[jellybean]

Hi all,

I’m totally new to this, hope this is the right way to do this - I bought a leather jacket from a vintage shop last weekend and would love to find more information about it. It was marked as 1940s on the shop tag, but I don’t know enough about jackets to say whether that is true or not. I’d really like to know how old it is, and any info about what type of jacket it is, etc. I was so excited to find something that fits me perfectly and is just the style I was looking for! The leather is in great shape; I plan to get the lining and zipper replaced once I find a suitable tailor.

Thanks in advance for any info you can provide!

Are there any other tags on the inside of the pocket or in the lining of the jacket ?
Not sure if it’s a 1940s jacket but might be 1950s. Very nice condition for its age .

No other tags, unfortunately. Left me with very little to use as search terms.
Thanks, I’m very happy with the condition it’s in, can’t wait to the zipper fixed so I can wear it properly.
Any thoughts on what this style would be called?

Looks like a very similar style to a female aviators jacket.

Is the zip damaged? If not I’d keep it, that’s a really nice Art Deco style puller. Or if the male side is knackered it’s possible to replace the track and swap the pullers over. Nice jacket. I’d try and keep as much of the original lining as possible too, if it was me.
