Not much of a deal in terms of quality. If you believ these things cost 100 bucks, you are wrong. It uses mostly fake leather and the material is pretty thin. Expect a few tears after some use. If possible, look at teh Sears reviews.

the description says Shell: 100% Lambskin leather. Lining: 100% Polyester. only one review on two of the coats Review on one coat said zipper jammed after 3 months (Heck this just happened on my zeroxposur) and other coat says it tears easy. Not too worried because I just got this for husband for weekends and dress.

i was thinkking about getting it....but i think i'll pass after reading that.
At least it is not one of the pieces of chinese crap made out of strips of leather. $29.99 does not seem to be too much even if it is not a $250 jacket.

And now, back to to realityland.
These are not "mostly fake leather". The lambskin jacket is fine. The leather is a bit on the thin side, and the styling is pedestrian. But beyond that, it's a perfectly serviceable jacket. If this were a name brand jacket (instead of carrying the Sears house name Covington) it would be a $300-350 list price jacket. The lambskin jacket is certainly the best jacket you're gonna find for $40. I personally think the cheaper jacket looks too cheap. But it is not "fake leather". I think the poster who said that must be referring to the Anthony Geary model leatherette Members Only jacket he's been wearing for years.
Nice- bought 2 of each of the XL microsuede jackets at $15 each (2 for me and 2 for Dad) and few a doodads, a cpl of Sweaters. Not super quality probably, but it costs nearly that much to dry clean a jacket in NYC so as long as they last, that's fine. Thanks.
