Ripstop
|
Ripstop is an amazing fabric because of its versatility,
tensile strength, and lightweight characteristics. It is created
from extremely firm yarns, tightly woven, giving it a ruggedness
yet a very light weight and soft hand. Every quarter inch, a
tremendously tough nylon cord is woven into the fabric from both
directions. The word "Ripstop" literally means that even if a
puncture is made in this fabric, a rip will stop because of this
specially engineered fabric.
This fabric is permanently sealed with a unique "Enduracote"
for superior water repellency under all weather conditions. It is
also "downproof" and will not leak down feathers through the
fabric.
