nothing more nothing less.......

it was NOT worn, and thats the end of it.

Oh, dear, what are you going to tell the Roman author who wrote that hide armor is useless in the rain? Or the guy who made the rawhide lamellar piece found at Dura Europas? You may be too late!

Don't get me wrong, I'm hardly a "leatherite"! But the evidence for its existence IS there.
