Hmm, apart from the ripping problem, I think it was mainly because I found latex to be not nearly as nice as I'd imagined it to be. Unless tailor-made (I assume), it tends to not fit well; you can't easily adjust it, it exposes every last gram of fat instead of mercifully hiding it (granted, not the latex's fault), it generally doesn't shine unless you spray copious amounts of shiner on it, it makes you sweat quickly and then gets clammy, and it just generally doesn't feel nice.

Well, to me, anyway.
