[CAUT] grand cover

[Otto Keyes]

The ones we got were cordura (I believe that's what it is) with a foam
padding stitched in.  I would avoid both the vinyl (doesn't breathe) and
the cotton (tears, stains, padding bunches up).  The cordura are almost
indestructable.  Not "inexpensive", but well worth the money.
