Are we talking about: #1 the "perforated" leather - chest, etc - for
ventilation and comfort concerns, or are we talking about (and this is
what I had in mind): #2 the "fabric" that's in the back of the knee
area and perhaps in the armpit or maybe in the crotch for the sake of
more flexibility in those areas?
My 6-year-old Z leathers have the fabric stuff in the "knee-pit",
perforated leather in the armpit, and nothing (save maybe some
crotch-rot) but solid leather in the crotchal area.
And if #2 is what's under discussion, will the new rule forbid ANY
fabric-type material, even if the ""fabric" is Kevlar? That's what I
wanna know, and if Kevlar is okay, will we have to have a note from the
Mfr proving that it's kevlar?
