Nylon is an extremely tough fabric that’s both tear and abrasion resistant. Our outdoor nylon fabrics have a urethane coating to repel water, making them great for outdoor use. These fabrics come in many different deniers which refers to the thickness of the individual fibers that make up the fabric and is an indication of weight and durability. Nylon is popular for bags, outdoor and camping gear, tarps and protective coverings, and more.
