Listen Gents ,
Any leather product will eventually Soften , at creases , Seams ect . when subject to stress . IF rawhide or similar leather where used for a "Tube and Yoke " Armour , it would be used as "PART "of , Not "MADE OF " . Any person familiar with the material realizes this . NOBODY Familiar with the material would ever submit the idea that it would be "cookie Cut " out of a " RAWHIDE " this never has been or would ever be a legitimate suggestion . IF protected between layers of Material or Leather and Bent as a Unit , It would maintain its Structural integrity for a extended period . AND would give you the same effect as seen in ART with the "YOKE " standing up . BUT I may add a word of caution so would many other materials .
