Show me your distressed goatskin jackets. :-)

I've seen plenty of distressed lambskin jackets and the pre-distressed cows, but I don't recall seeing any pics of distressed goatskin jackets and how they turned out.

If you've distressed your goat, please post some pics. :)

Thanks!

I've never even heard of somebody distressing a goatskin.

I'd like to see pictures as well.

This is not the "authentic"-colored goat. But it's a Wested goat that I bought from someone else who used nailpolish remover to distress the jacket:

Hey PR

Check out page 2 of this section and you'll see my jacket, pics posted by MK. Titled " Koreana's rub with a goat" Freakin MK... I will tell you that I went crazy. I wanted to see how far I can go. Enjoy!

I seem to remember MK stating that the goatskin is difficult to distress....
