Cordura® is one of the most versatile fabrics ideally suited across a whole range of military end uses. Cordura® provides endurance and rugged durability for equipment exposed to extreme conditions and is resistant to cuts, tears and scuffs. Ounce for ounce, Cordura® is more durable than other fabrics.
 

Use the Tough Stuff for More Stuff

For gear, performance apparel and work wear, Cordura® is the “Tough Stuff”. And now that Cordura® can be used in a wider range of products—from heavy-duty performance gear and apparel to everyday wear—Cordura® is even tougher to beat.

From luggage and backpacks to boots and performance apparel, it’s easier than ever to choose the look, texture and weight you need for all kinds of styles.


How Cordura® Measures Up

When put to the test, Cordura® resists tears and abrasions like no other fabric of its kind.

Ounce for ounce, Cordura® is more durable than other fabrics.

Cordura® is :

  • 10x more durable than cotton duck
  • 3X more durable than standard polyester
  • 2x more durable than standard nylon

It's resistant to abrasions, tears, and scuffs--all the qualities you expect from a high performance fabric. So regardless of your activities, you'll benefit from the toughness of Cordura®.

How does Cordura® Measure Up for Abrasion?

  

Cordura® After 3,000 cycles   
Nylon after 1,000 cycles

  

Cotton after 700 cycles    
Polyester after 700 cycles

The fabrics above have been tested by the Modified Wyzenbeck abrasion test.
This is a sandpaper abrasion test measured in cycles.
