That sounds like some Cordura I have seen. Cordura is a coated nylon. I use 1000D Cordura for tool pouches that I make. The samples are a good idea. Where did you find it?

: I have found and ordered some samples that is dyed in camo, a 1050
: denier (12 oz I think?). Thought this might fun for my
: Creek/whitewater boat I have planned. I figure if I use it much
: it would be reskined ever 2-3 years anyway. So it's not huge
: loss if it doesn't work out.

: I have seen 8 oz solid colors listed on some web sites too. Just
: got me to thinking then I ran across the camo.
