Cordura®

Cordura® is an extremely versatile 100% nylon yarn. There are a number of different weights to Cordura®, so whatever the performance need, there's a Cordura® to match it.

Emerald Citi Textile, Inc. stocks these Cordura® weights... (Available in Black only, unless ordered in large quantities)

  • 330 denier - Lightweight with exceptional durability and tear strength. While specially engineered for rugged apparel applications, it affords a soft, spun-like hand and appearance. Great for careerwear, workwear, hunting apparel, skiwear, activewear and gloves.
  • 500 denier - Provides the best ratio of abrasion resistance to fabric weight. It is especially well-suited to rugged apparel and recreational applications. Also good for backpacks, camera bags, handbags, horse blankets, soft-sided luggage, boot bags, and uphostery fabrics.
  • 1000 denier - The "original" Cordura®, this yarn is still the standard for toughness, abrasion and scuff resistance, puncture and tear resistance. It outperforms standard nylons, polypropylene, vinyl, cotton and leather by factors up to 10! Some common uses are boot uppers, horse blankets, military fabrics, boots and shoes, briefcases, indoor/outdoor funiture, computer and camera bags and gun cases.

Waterproof Breathables (WP/B)

These fabrics are coated to protect you from the elements, whether wind, rain, or snow, while ensuring that a comfortable microclimate is maintained next to your skin by allowing moisture vapor to pass through your outerwear, footwear, and accessories.

Emerald Citi Textile, Inc. now stocks (in house), 2-ply Waterproof Breathables in Black, Navy, red, Royal, and Forest, and 4-ply Waterproof Breathables in Black. Other colors and types are available in our "non-stock program". Call for details.

Ultrex®(made by Burlington Industries, Inc.) is a waterproof, windproof, durable and extremely breathable fabric system. A microporous coating is applied to the underside of the fabric. The coating produces either a white or gray backing. It is small enough to block out wind and rain, yet large enough to permit perspiration vapor molecules to escape. A durable finish causes water to bead up on the outside to keep the fabric dry. Ultrex® can be applied to any fabric, but is usually applied to Supplex®.
