Just got off the phone with Goores

The lady from Goores just called me back re: the Regent ( I tried to order from them last week and they were sold out) she told me that they are getting a new shipment in on Tuesday but, again, only the "classic" fabric. Here's the little nugget of info I thought would be a point of interest: she was telling me that the "classic" fabric is WAY more breathable than the onyx or sahara. I guess when Britax was testing out fabric choices for the Regent they wanted something that would be stain resistent. The tradeoff is, I guess, that you have sweaty kids, but no stains! Anyway, she said that the classic pattern "resists" stains and is much more breathable. Just thought I'd pass along the info!!

Good info and it makes me feel better about this heinously ugly Classic Regent I'm trying to install in my car.

that is another reason I jumped on the classic. When I heard it was plush all around I knew it would be better for here. That windbreaker type material makes DS sweat(me too, I cant remember the last time I owned a windbreaker jacket or pant). I dont know if they test fabric for that, but I know from personal experience that windbreaker like material is yuck.
