OK - but there is still some loss of dignety involved, once again.

We don't have to wear a sports bra with it do we??

No because it's coated nylon, t slides along the surrounding brush...

... The dry ducks have a peached surface, so they snag on thorns .

Sylnylon is MUCH stronger than people give it credit for... Couple that with
he slippery surface and it holds up much better...  I have used both, though
not on the pct
