The color is darker on the Novapelle and the distressing is minimal.

ahh, thanks PSB.

Also, is the Novapelle that much "hotter" to wear compared to the Lambskin or Goatskin. I've gotta go to Israel for my Archaeology field school and I would very much like to wear it. I'm also scheduled to go to Machu Pichu and I would like to wear it there as well.

I'm fine without wearing it, but I would prefer to wear it. But I also don't want to burn up :wink: .

So what do you guys think?

Well, where in Israel and when? I spend a lot of time there and can tell you I freeze during the winter in J'lem and territories. Of course that's also when it tends to rain so that's another consideration for leather.

Of course take a short drive to the coast and you might be lots warmer, so location is important.

Maybe I'll see you there if I recognize the outfit!

Well, I think that it might be too cumbersome to bring both a Novapelle and a goat. Best bet might be to bring the goat and a sweater in case it gets real cold.
