CORDURA

Cordura is the benchmark fabric for all-around durability, with a 50+ year history of performance applications in outdoor products, military gear, workwear, and luggage. This is a woven fabric made using high tenacity air jet textured nylon yarns. It has a durable water-repellent coating on the face, and clear polyurethane (PU) coating on the back. Cordura offers excellent resistance to abrasion, tears, rot, mildew, and moisture. We utilize 500D and 1000D Cordura where applicable.

Content: 100% nylon
Water-repellent coating on front / PU coating on back
Holds its shape
Matte finish that will still look great over the years
Woven in Rhode Island / Pennsylvania / Tennessee, USA

WAXED CANVAS

Waxed canvas is a traditional army pack material, but its origins date back to the 15th century sailing industry. This is a rugged, densely woven cotton duck canvas that is saturated with paraffin wax, making it highly water-repellent. Waxed canvas develops a beautiful patina with regular use (much like denim), giving each bag a unique character over time.
