: Forgive me if I missed this before. I'm trying to figure out the benefit of veg or chrome goat as opposed to lamb. Is it durability, personal preference, or authenticity. I thought the original jackets were made of lamb and that the purpose of the Flightsuits jacket was originality so I'm afraid I've become a bit confused.

Lamb was original, but was used for purposes of movie making, i.e. light and comfortable for the actors. They did not need to last very long. As far as look, the FS goat skins look as good as lambskin - IMHO. The veg vs chrome is personal preference - some functionality issues as well. Sorry for the short post.
