Coyote Brown 1,000 Denier Cordura Nylon

Sturdy heavy duty fabric. Using for outside craft projects

Needed a rugged 'military' look material for photo backdrop (that was not camo). This material is very thick/heavy, has a great texture, and has no sheen. Great for what I am using it for. Wish this company sold a few more materials like this in different colors.

My dog is one of those that will chew any dog bed to pieces. I built a wood frame, filled it with cedar chips under soft padding. I then covered it with this fabric, and essentially attached it down with thin flat metal screwed into the frame ( the metal was to discourage chewing on the edges). I'm not saying that this fabric is indestructible, but I've only had to replace it twice in 2 years. Which is much better than the "chew proof" dog bed she destroyed in 3 days. It's also easy to clean the dog hair off.

I combined this with some cork material to make a purse for my wife. Normally I would consider this type of material "tactical" rather than "fashion" but after this project I'll probably do it again.

Used this to make knee pads for my air soft outfit. Holy Cow! The quality and thickness is exactly the same as a military duffel bag.... AWESOME!!

I'm not sure how this is 1000 Cordura, it's much thinner weight than I have used in the past. Best to order samples from other vendors/retailers before committing to using this fabric. I purchased this for RV toyhauler seats & decided not to use it. I have a crewcab truck upholstered in 1000d Cordura and the real stuff is much thicker and more durable than this. Real 1000d Cordura nylon, in my opinion, feels is more durable than leather.

It's nice enough fabric but it is NOT Cordura. I would rate it closer to 500D weight instead of 1000D.

I have a small dog that bites and scratches, so he does better wearing a coat, but he destroyed every coat I tried within a day. The coats I made with this have lasted over a year of constant biting, scratching and rubbing with no damage. There has not been a single abraded or broken thread. This is amazing. It also handles well and sews easily.
