    honestly, i would have exppected all black to be better, since i theory it will reduce contrast and shadow lines, but yeah i guess outer curves would still be visible

        i did not expect that, that is like actually translucent. My guess is this is some textile engineering to hold air across surface to reduce skin friction, but i do not think that adding a base non transparent layer will hurt that much (probably just weight). thank you
