OD Green (Olive Drab Green) 1,000 Denier Cordura Nylon Fabric 60" - by The Yard

Didnt do anything with the fabric yet but it came is the size stated and seems like a great fabric. Nice and tough. Would buy again

I am knocking on age door of 81 years old. I live off grid in the Alaska interior, with my two Husky dogs. I am retired due to cancer. My income is a fracton of what it was. However I still hunt, fish and camp in late fall when its much cooler and bugs are gone. I enjoy sewing and creating my own gear plus its generally very heavy duty. I purchase a lot of fabric for custom made gear. Since I now ride a quad into mountains or woods, my gear can get heavy. I am old and I want my gear to be ultra heavy duty. Plus the way the world has gone, it needs to be much stronger now then in past. I use lighter weight fabric for stuff sacks. Plus in winter when snow is several feet deep, these projects keep me busy.. Cabin fever is real.

GREAT !!! need to put back straps on a giant WWII duffle bag from rothco and i"ll use some of this material for a back panel support before i sew on with fishing line ... and i have plenty of material left over to patch any holes in the bag ... for reviewers of survival gear on youtube it can be used as a table cloth but it's too small to use as tarp, beach mat or picnic ground cloth ... can also hand it to your local tailor and ask what you want ...

I was pleased with how quickly this came even though there were delays. The material is very nice and its close to what I was expecting. Although, I'm fairly new to working with these materials and dont have much to reference other than materials on bags and equipment that I already have. I guess I expected 1000d to be thicker, but I did get a pretty good idea of what to expect from the reviews. Maybe it is 1000d, Maybe its 600d. I wouldn't know since I have nothing to compare it to. But it is pretty thin to me. Perhaps what I really wanted was ballistic nylon. I wanted to make heavy duty mil-style bags and packs and gear with it. This works great for small items, but its much thinner and has less "woven" definition than I was looking for. It is however very water resistant and tough for the weight. But, there were a couple of key things to note. First, the material clearly states that it is 60" wide and by the yard. I received a piece 40" wide and over the 2 yards I ordered. It came out to more sq/ft then what I ordered, so that was nice. However, If you needed a 60" roll and got this i think you'd be upset. Second, There was discoloration marks on one small section of the material rendering it unusable. Again, not a big deal for me since I needed practice pieces anyways. Overall I paid about $16-17 for 2 yards, and I have no idea if that is a good price for this material or not. But to me that was a good value. It allows me to practice and make smaller, lighter weight items and mix them with thicker materials later on. UPDATE: So I also ordered 1000D material (Cordura) from another reputable source, and what I have from this company is definitely NOT 1000D. The Cordura has a much more defined weave and is noticeably thicker. It's still a very nice, and strong material and you can't beat the price for what you get. But if you want real 1000D, get Cordura.

Had sewn onto pants for snake chaps. Doubled up it works great but hot

I use 1000D cordura for all the packs I make, and the fabric I received was not 1000D cordura, it feels/ looks like the 600D pvc coated fabric. For the price of this per yard, in my opinion there are other places to get true 1000D fabric. Not sure if it was a mistake at the packaging place, things happen, but I will be purchasing elsewhere from now on.

I ordered this and some velcro, and had a local sew shop make a pouch for a piece of 1" neoprene foam to ride on the back of my ALICE ruck (I have too many rucks by far!) I wanted to be able to mess with the positioning of the foam, so I had hook on this pouch and loop on my ruck-allowing me to use the ruck without the foam pad if needed. The color is great, very close to the large ALICE bag. I've got plenty left over and will likely make or have more things made from it!
