    Improvement is great, but all new is so much better.

    Meet 1.8 oz AIRWAVE Hybrid - designed and woven from scratch by us with the single goal of delivering a radically new and unmatched next to skin softness.

    Redefining the phrase "feels like cotton"...

    Unlike standard nylon, AIRWAVE fabrics use a secret sauce called Air Textured Yarn. During processing, an air jet is used to create tiny loops in the yarn like the ones shown in the high-res image below.

    ATY yarn SEM image

    But what makes ATY yarn so special is that it combines the ultra soft hand feel of organic cotton with the high strength of synthetic nylon.

    Said another way, AIRWAVE is softer than everything else and every bit as strong.

    Like the market-first 1.7 oz MTN XL, 1.8 oz AIRWAVE uses our unique Hybrid weave construction with a much thicker, stronger yarn (135D) for the ripstop grid vs the base fabric (40D).

    The end result for you is a stronger, more rugged material with minimal increase in overall finished weight.

    AIRWAVE ZOOM HEX + BOX

    Combined with a brand new HEX + BOX ripstop grid pattern, AIRWAVE is also easier to sew (i.e. holds a crease well) while  reducing stretch and increasing comfort for load bearing applications such as hammocks.

    Typical end uses for 1.8 oz AIRWAVE include hammocks, rugged synthetic quilt shells, chairs, light duty bags, or any application where lightweight, strong, and durable fabric is needed.

    NOTE - If you're making a hammock and want to compare similar fabrics, see our comparison chart HERE.

best fabric for DIAS shorts!

This fabric is fantastic for the LearnMYOG DIAS shorts pattern. It's durable, light weight, cotton-like feel, dries really quickly if wet and no 'swish-swish' sound when you walk like most durable synthetics. Grab this before it's all gone as I believe it's not going to be carried anymore. Sad to see it go as it's a great fabric.

Pleased

I bought 5 yards of this to make a bedroom hammock and have been sleeping in it for a year and a half.

It's comfortable and feels more like cotton than nylon.

No problems with durability yet. 450ish nights, plus plenty of chill time.

Thanks for your review Adam! We're happy to hear that the 1.8 oz AIRWAVE is working perfectly for your bedroom hammock! Love to hear that it's been holding up great after so many nights.

Very lightweight and strong

I used it to make some gamebags and an ultralight backpack. Very satisfying with the results
