The leather bridle will snap if he gets caught on something, vs. indestructible biothane that will just keep him standing there forever... the leather reins will break if he steps on them, vs. the biothane that will break his jaw before they would break... and at least one leather off billet (western saddle) that will break and allow the saddle to fall off if he should get caught up in something. Biothane/Zilco just won't break, which is part of it's appeal, but also it's downfall.
