The smartphone kind of ruins the look, lol, but you can tell from the cut that that's authentic 70's vintage--I can't believe the shape that suede fringe is in! Great find!

You look like you belong in a music video for Led Zeppelin or Pink Floyd! Or at least a 1970's Doctor Who serial with Tom Baker.
