    Do you mean that it is one of those fake leather jackets you get at a department store?

      Synthetic leather is as varied as plastic. You have zip lock bags which are flexible but easily destroyed, and on the other extreme you have abs fairings that merely crack from low speed crashes. The thickness of the fake leather, UV & rain resistance will vary depending upon the material. Based upon the stuff they use for car seats I would expect it to be shredded in a wreck, but otherwise stand up well to weather....and it appears that this site agrees:

      Some people are primarily positive, others negative. Some argue about whether the glass is half full or half empty. Me? I drink the contents and call it empty.

          get a Kevlar jacket. A good jacket is going to be cheaper than a skin graft!

            I'm considering getting one for rainy days. They tend to repel water better.
