Sounds very tasteful! I've had a lambskin jacket before and it was
(and still is) rather durable. It is a very tough leather! If you
plan on getting dragged behind a truck, you may find yourself in
the need of a new jacket. I once got my arm snagged and ripped a
triangular tear in the sleeve. However, it could be fixed and the
repair is barely visible. Don't worry... Fall Guy
