It takes a very long time for ballistic nylon to soften. Wear a scarf.

Actually, the neck area is well padded and not abrasive. It's the arm holes I'm having issues with.blues2cruise wrote: It takes a very long time for ballistic nylon to soften. Wear a scarf.

I always wear a soft long sleeved t-shirt or some other soft material.ShawnKing2 wrote:Actually, the neck area is well padded and not abrasive. It's the arm holes I'm having issues with.blues2cruise wrote: It takes a very long time for ballistic nylon to soften. Wear a scarf.
Maybe you just need to wash it...take out the armour and wash in the machine on a gentle cycle...hang to dry.
