1.1 oz Silnylon - Full Roll

1.1 oz Silnylon

I brought this fabric in orange and black to make a windsox for monarch butterflies. Time will test outside wear.

This fabric worked well for me for rain chaps. They are a little on the light side but they will stay stowed much of the time so that makes sense. If I used them for non-stop use or brushy areas, I'd probably want something sturdier.

with my brand new machine and the tension of the thread even at the lowest the bobbin thread always rises and is seen above. I had the same problem with the previous machine and adapted very thin needle. Help how do you stitch this material?

The fabric met my needs. Working on a project that required waterproof and light material. This was perfect.

I received this material in the DIY Pack Cover kit in the color blaze orange, and it was the perfect choice for a pack cover; it’s super lightweight, you don’t even know it’s there until you need it. And since my day pack if fairly small (16L) and RBTR included two micro cord locks, I had a ton of extra material to make a tiny storage bag for it with a cinch closure.

Since it’s a lightweight material it can be sort of slippery and fiddly while sewing, but you get the hang of it after a while! Thank you!

Super thin and light, that's a plus. Haven't checked out the waterproofness yet. Slippery to sew but doable.

My original plan was to make a 5 man bugout tent due to its light weight, but instead I decided my first project will be a Mylar insert between two layers jacket with removable trench coat skirting. This stuff is so light weight that 10 yards feels like 2. I'll be buying much more of this material. Thank you, Ripstop by the Roll!

This company is Top Notch and a Joy to deal with. They are willing and available to all questions that I have.

1.1 oz Silnylon

Exactly what it was suppose to be. Lighter material than what I expected but it worked out great. Tough to see for a beginner liked me because it wants to move... My skill level was the issue not the fabric. Even as light as it is, the fabric seems strong when it is sewn in place.

Excellent sales assistance, great product!

The process was easy peasy. Hard part was choosing a color. The fabric I bought will be my ultralight footprint for my tent.

Purchased 18 yds to make a ~15x15’ tarp with tape-reinforced edges and multiple tieout points, along with a few stuff sacks. Light, slick material that really benefits from some sewing practice on scraps first to get needle and bobbin tensions dialed in just right. Haven’t had the opportunity to test in in the field yet, but it’s certainly lighter and packs smaller than the 10x12’ tarp it’s replacing.

I ordered several pieces of silnylon for lightweight pack and canoe covers. The first one sewed up great, a blaze orange pack cover for hunting season. Used a small needle, #70.

I bought this originally to fill a unique request from a friend, to make a cover for her leather oboe case to keep the top of it dry when she stuffs it in the cup holder on her backpack to travel. Got that done, made a small bag to store it in. Now I’m thinking about other containers I want to make.

1.1 oz Silnylon

I LIKED IT. it came in time for a good price but shipping was too much.

This fabric is super light and very water repellent for its weight. I found it very fussy to cut as it slides easily but it took stitches well and even “heals” well if you have to rip out a seam and resew. I can recommend this fabric for more experienced sewers as the finished product (a pack rain cover) turned out better than expected.

My order came quickly and the quality was good. It worked well for my project.

1.1 oz Silnylon

I used this fabric to make a rain cover for my backpack. As well as a ground trap, a wallet, and a couple stuff sacks. All of which worked out great.

Last summer I went canoe camping only to find that the window in my Rei tent’s fly disintegrated. After circular reasoning with Rei, I realized I was going to have to repair this design flaw on my own. I remembered my days as a Boy Scout leader pushing the ultralight agenda. I googled and found you! Life became easy! We’ll interest rates notwithstanding! I needed a small amount so I lowered my expectations. But you were great. In a few days voilà. I had my tent fix. Now it’s back to the River. Thanks Guys!

Great fabric as waterproof sheet liner

Lightweight silnylon for my groundsheet held up well thru Maine's 100-mile wilderness!

Silnylon is new to me and I'm enjoying working with it. Lightweight, waterproof, strong...and it can be glued!

It’s no often you find the best for less than the rest. The silnylon is great and easy to work with.

I used the 1.1oz Silnylon to make a ultralight hiking pole tent. I started off using double sided tape to join the segments to sew, but eventually moved to butterfly clips.
Super light and fully waterproof.
