Can't say you didn't try Chad, but way better to be bummed out now than 30 seconds before touch down.

Hard to improve on the seats that are already in the kit. They are light and strong. But hey, at least you gave it a shot!

Hey Chad, the airflow doesn't necessarily have to flow straight away from your back. That 3D fabric could give you a nice air gap between you and the non-breathable "standard" material to help "keep your cool" :)

Good idea Kelly! I'll see how it works fit-wise...
