Something to throw out real quick before I go to bed since you guys are talking modern materials: d3o would actually make a really nice layer in this, especially in certain joints where you just can't have hard protection. Under some kevlar at the wrists and whatnot would give you a nice blunt force trauma resistance.
For anyone not familiar with the stuff remember when you mix cornstarch and water and get goop that goes hard when you try to poke or hit it too fast/hard? Same concept with something like rubber. Makes for decent bicycle gloves, ok helmets even (by itself), and works very nicely as a layer in impact protection with something else. You get a flexible material that hardens on impact.
