Is FS on the verge of a new distressable goatskin?

Did I read something here recently (from MK, I think) that indicated Flight Suits was working on a new goat that could be more easily distressed? Does anyone have late word on that project? Thanks.....pwd

Sorry, MK. This is what I was referring to. It's not goatskin after all. It was posted by junior back in January...pwd

"I was speaking with one of the sales staff about one of their jackets and he mentioned the hide that they are working on for both the Raider jacket and the Expedition. This hide will distress much faster than other hides they have available. What was news to me is that it is not a goatskin that they are woking with, but rather cowhide."

Just to clarify. The new distressed cowhide is available now. The possibility of a distressed goat has been discussed but there are no definites on whether or not it will happen. IMHO its not needed anyway after seeing what happens to their new goat hides after a year or so of natural wear. It could happen, but ,don't hold your breath. Well, you can if ya want to.
