Every man will carry as much portection as he can affort finacially or pysicaly. In my opininon the "hevying" "lightening" and then again "rehevying" armors has to do with the availability of finaces, materials and above all skilled craftsmen.
Tactrics and weapons also influence the issue. Firearms effectveness negated metal armors. They were not worth the trouble anymore.
Suddenly they became popular after 1960 because they were made of lighter material and they were again of some use (against ordonance.)
Kind regards
