Re: JACKETS AND ARMOUR

Strictly speaking (in terms of theory) the value of leather is that when you
hit the pavement, your body will slide, rather than tumble. Having a winter
coat on top might add to tumbling action as the coat "catches" on pavement.

On the other hand, it adds an extra layer of padding. Just thought I'd be
nit-picky
and point this out.

I have a summer weight Icon jacket which contains the elbow pads and padding
and such. But it has large mesh panels, that make it unsuitable for winter
so I just throw my old snowboarding coat on top of it. so I get all the
protection of the jacket and the warmth of the liner of my snowboarding
jacket and water-repellent  outer shell.
