We consider Cordura nylon to be old faithful. Tried and true, it's been around for a long time and is considered the gold standard as a base fabric.
500D is the happy balance and strength and weight featuring the polyeurathane coating with great ruggedness. It is a textured nylon for a natural spun-like appearance, with excellent resistance to fading, abrasion, rot and mildew. Quick drying, and highly water repellent.
Dv2 and Nemesis batches from 2024/2025 use 500D Cordura nylon along with other pouches.

Waterproof, durable and lightweight fabric with 100% recycled polyester and non-toxic DWR coating. Every yard of ECOPAK™ uses about 20 plastic bottles and saves one pound of carbon emissions compared to standard fabric. If you care about the environment, Ecopak is the way to go. This fabric also holds its color, which is why it’s primarily used for our bright colors.
EPX200 is a laminate fabric comprised of the following layers:
200D 100% Recycled Polyester Face, 45° Blue CrossPly, 70D ripstop backing. Variants of the Nemesis, DV2, USP, Firefly, and Drone are made with this fabric. This fabric comes with the most color options available, so many of our bright colors have used this fabric.

So which fabric is right for you? It’s all about application and usage.
Most of our customer base prefers neutral colors (black, grey, or alpine) and most of our fabrics in these colors have great abrasion resistance.
If you love bright colors, our ECOPAK and X-PAC variants hold their color tone very well, but the trade off is the lower levels of abrasion resistance. If you purchase any of our bag models with the ECOPAK/X-Pac, you must know that you cannot be as rough with these fabrics the same way you could do with the Cordura/Hybrid fabrics.
