Skid lids "defense" of their open style was that it "torqued" to close on impact! Of course they disappeared once testing standards (SNELL) actually were used. They did use Gen-u-ine leather in their interior padding as I remember. Fwiw, they were also lighter than anything around. Alan Bernstein (will it clear today in eastern Ct?)
