Challenge ULTRA™

ULTRA™ represents a new paradigm in durability and weight. Constructed with an optimal blend of UHMWPE (Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene) & high-tenacity polyester, the tight weave is laminated with an eco-friendly adhesive to Challenge RUV™ film. The result is an incredibly strong, lightweight, and waterproof to 200 psi textile. ULTRA™ is the ultimate in ultralight pack fabric, with the strength to go the distance in the most demanding environments.

400 ROBIC

Our ULA 400 Robic is the toughest stANDARD FABRIC we’ve ever seen and the fabric we use to make the packs in our pack line. Highly tear and abrasion-resistant, ULA 400 Robic is reinforced with a ripstop weave, increasing tear strength and stitch holding capabilities. Low stretch, this is the perfect fabric for making backpacks, day packs, duffles, and pouches; that’s why we use it! This 100% Robic Nylon fabric has a 3 pass Teflon DWR (Durable Water Repellent) and a 3 pass PU (Polyurethane) Coating, making it highly water-resistant.

COLORS

500 CORDURA CAMO

Our 500 Cordura Camo fabrics are made of 100% high tenacity 6,6 filament nylon fibers making them super strong and resistant to abrasion. This fabric is water repellent, thanks to a polyurethane coating. The Cordura does not have a ripstop grid making it not quite as tear-resistant as the Robic. It is also a little heavier than the Robic, adding an extra 2 oz to the total pack weight. Cordura fabrics have been tested in some of the harshest environments, including military applications.

X-PAC

Our X-Pac Fabrics include Terrain X-Pac™ VX21, Ripstop Soft X-Pac™ VX21 RS, High Visibility VX25, Rugged X-Pac VX42™, and Camouflage X-Pac X50™. Following is a description of each fabric type.

What is X-Pac™ fabric? Like DCF (Dyneema Composite Fabric), X-Pac™ has its roots in the sailcloth industry where most ultralight, ultrastrong, waterproof fabrics are born. Developed and distributed by Dimension-Polyant, X-Pac™ is a composite fabric comprised of multiple layers of fabric laminated into a single sheet of fabric. The layers in X-Pac™ consist of a Nylon, Cordura, or Polyester face fabric, an X-PLY™ mesh, a waterproof film and a taffeta backing with a water-resistant coating. This technology makes X-Pac ultralight, ultrastrong, abrasion and tear resistant, and highly waterproof. In short, it’s perfect for making outdoor gear, and we think you’ll like it!
