I've owned Indy jackets made from:

-New finish cowhide (Disney)
-Predistressed cowhide (Wested, US Wings, Star Wars Insider, Disney)
-Lambskin (Wested, Flight Suits)
-Goatskin (US Wings, Flight Suits, US Authentic)
-Horsehide (Flight Suits)
-Deerskin (Flight Suits)
-Kangaroo skin (US Wings)

I don't think I'm forgetting anything? Anyway, just figured the above may help in assessing where I'm coming from. I've owned a few jackets and done a bit of legwork as a fan on the topic. It took some work on the part of Michaelson, Lee Keppler, and Dave Marshall to make me a goatskin convert, but for me it is the best choice out there.

Hope this helps.

  • Well, it is actually cheaper than my father-in-law's golf game ($100+ per week - ouch!), and that's why my wife kinda lets it slide (grin)(nm) Patterson 17:25:24 6/26/2001 (0)
