: I've heard many people express fear about the durability of lambskin.

: have been wearing an A2 or G1 for over fifteen years. The problem I

: have that trouble with the Indy lambskin. I initially had a problem
: with the idea of lamb, so I got a goatskin Indy from US Wings. I liked
: the craftsmanship of the jacket, but I had a problem with the leather.
: Normally I love goatskin. The problem was not the quality of the
: leather itself, which was good. I just thought it was wrong for an
: Indy jacket. It just didn't drape right and the texture was wrong for
: an Indy jacket. I decided to go with the lamb for authenticity's sake.
: I'm lovin' the lambskin, but now back to my question. Has anyone torn
: their jacket? Should I take extra precaution when I wear it? Should I
: get a "thrasher" jacket made out of something else? I don't want to be
: too hot. What do you all
