I remember fringed jackets as Western wear. My mother had one that
she had purchased in the early 50's. She's never quite forgiven me
(nor have I forgiven myself) for leaving it out in the rain.
I don't think they were around much in the early 60's. My brother
saved his money up for one, but my parents couldn't find one anywhere
near us, even though we lived in rural California where Western wear
was the norm. They finally found one on a trip to, of all places,
New York City!
Didn't Dennis Hopper wear a fringed jacket in "Easy Rider"?
