Why Pack Cloth Nylon Belongs in Your Next Project
Pack cloth nylon is a reliable choice for sewists who need fabric that holds up to real use. This tightly woven nylon is commonly backed with a urethane coating, which makes it water-resistant, abrasion-tolerant, and smooth enough to wipe clean. It is a strong fit for anything carried, packed, or exposed to the weather.
Popular Uses
- Backpacks, stuff sacks, and duffel bags
- Tote bags, lunch bags, and pouches
- Linings for heavier outdoor gear
- Equipment covers and storage organizers
What to Look For
Check each listing for weight or denier, since heavier nylon pack cloth fabric resists wear better, while lighter options sew more easily and keep projects compact. Note which side carries the coating so you can place it on the inside or outside as your design requires. Color and finish matter too, especially when matching webbing, zippers, and hardware.
Sewing Tips
Use a sharp needle, polyester thread, and clips instead of pins to avoid leaving holes in coated nylon fabric. A longer stitch length helps seams lie flat.
