Though I agree with you Matt that linen was more common than animal material and more cheap I refer you again to page one of the "armor penetration" thread, to the link that shows a very resilient leather masculata.
Spolas was probably re-enforced on the vital parts or the most likely to be exposed/hit parts and I still belive it was more probably a subarmalis.
Kind regards
