- I own an AEROstich suit (note spelling) myself, and am very pleased with
- it. Note, however, that the construction does NOT use kevlar. The suit is
- a nylon inner with a Gore-tex layer and a Cordura nylon outer. Elbows,
- knees and shoulders are further protected with temperfoam padding and
- balistic nylon.
