Abstract
A seat including an exterior seat surface. The exterior seat surface is movable inward and outward relative to an interior of the seat. A flexible material overlays the exterior seat surface. The flexible material is lockable to restrict movement of the flexible material towards the exterior seat surface. Movement of the exterior seat surface into the seat defines a gap between the exterior seat surface and the flexible material to permit air to circulate between the exterior seat surface and the flexible material to cool an occupant of the seat.
