    The Mountain Series is a hand selected collection of the highest performance fabrics/materials on earth - each one optimized for applications ranging from tarp/shelters, to quilts, hammocks, packs, and other high-end outdoor gear.

    Looking for wider, stronger, and more durable? Meet 1.7 oz MTN XL Hybrid - the latest addition to the Mountain Series line and built from the ground up to outperform similar weight nylon fabrics.

    We also did something that we've never done before - the hybrid weave.

    Essentially, what it means is that compared to many standard ripstop fabrics, we use a much thicker, stronger ripstop grid (120D) vs the base fabric (40D).

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

    Lastly, we utilize a diamond hybrid ripstop grid pattern. This makes the fabric easier to sew, increases comfort for load bearing applications (e.g. hammocks), and tends to extend the overall life of the fabric.

    Like the other fabrics in our XL line, we've custom woven 1.7 oz MTN XL Hybrid to be WIDER than standard fabrics at 68" versus the more common 60" width.

    1.7 oz MTN XL Hybrid is great for widebody hammocks, rugged synthetic quilt shells, chairs, lightweight bags, or any application where lightweight, strong, and highly durable fabric is needed.

My first DIY hammock!

Super fabric, low stretch and comfortable! Haven’t sewn anything since school, still it turned out great! I had some shoulder squeeze in my WBB XLC, and the one I made has none! I’ve already ordered some of the 1.2 version fabric, looking forward to it. The import tax does make it more expensive but nowhere in Europe that I know of offers this fabric. Very happy customer!

Great review Tommy! We love to hear people starting out on their MYOGing and how we help make that possible. 1.7 MTN XL Ripstop Nylon and 1.2 MTN XL Ripstop Nylon are great options for hammocks. We strive to provide the best products and options that we possibly can, so we are happy to hear we were able to help you out!

Low Stretch Material for Gathered End Hammock

I'm very happy with this fabric using it for a gathered end hammock. I have noticed very little stretch and I am a big guy. This material is good and light. I absolutely recommend using this material. I have only one complaint, very limited color selection. Come on, only Vader Blue, Orange, and Purple? I'm not trying to stick out like a sore thumb while in the woods.

Thanks for the feedback! We are glad to hear you love the product. We are currently working on restocking some of the darker colors so hopefully you can find something that works for you. Thanks again Matt.

We love to hear that! Thanks for leaving us a review and sharing how much you love the 1.7 MTN for hammocking. Happy hanging!

Good for shells, methinks...

I made a pair of shell pants (Green Pepper #128) using this fabric and so far they have been nice and breathable (with open leg cuffs). I've noticed that the reinforcing threads have more of a tendency to snag and/or fray than the base threads. Just something to keep in mind.
I have not had the chance to see if this fabric is bug proof, but will post another review when I know definitively. Seems like it's woven tightly enough to at least be a major hassle for mosquitos, etc, to penetrate.

Thanks for your review William! We'd love to see how your shell pants turned out. Be sure to tag us on social media. Let us know if you have any questions about future projects, we're here to help!

Great Hammock Material (2nd Build)

I used this to make another gathered end extra long and wide hammock. The finished item came out to 12' 4", and was 70" wide. After installing continuous loops and the ridgeline, the total weight was less than 4 oz. Definitely recommend this material for "big boy" hammocks!

Thanks so much Patrick! That sounds like an awesome hammock, we'd love to see photos. Be sure to tag us on social media or email social@ripstopbytheroll.com

Excellent Hammock Fabric

This is my favorite fabric for hammocks. It has a great feel to it and it is strong enough and wide enough for a single layer double hammock. Max weight 400 lbs according to RSBTR’s fabric comparison chart.

Thanks for the review Zach! The 1.7 oz MTN Hybrid is a great choice for hammocking, we're glad you love it! Let us know if you have any questions about future projects, we're here to help!

Great Material

I used mine to construct some light weight, durable, breathable, and easy to clean hiking hats. The one I've built so far turned out well. This is not as shiny as other ripstop fabrics I have experimented with which is what I was looking for since I didn't want flashy looking hats. It is strong. I thought it would be way more delicate than it was considering how light it was. It is also nice because it is not as slippery as some other types of ripstop fabrics, so you don't have to be as vigilant about it slipping in the sewing machine. Finally, for a ripstop fabric it feels okay against the skin. In fact, I did not notice it as I wore the hat I made. Some other ripstop fabrics feel as if I have a hat made out of a plastic bag against my skin, even if they are made of breathable materials. Hopefully, this will prove to be a long lasting and durable fabric and I have only had the hat I made for about two weeks.

Thanks for the review Shawn! We love how durable this 1.7 oz MTN Hybrid is. We'd love to see photos of your hiking hats, be sure to tag us on social media!

1.7 mtn xl

what can I say, if you are a bigger person, this is the material you want. Soft, strong, slight flex, but very supportive. It packs down super small as well. 12ft hammock packed down to softball size. I don't have a scale, so not sure how much it weighs, but its pretty light.

Thanks so much for the review Charles! This is one of our favorite fabrics for making your own hammock. We'd love to see your finished project, be sure to tag us on social media!

Not too bad. Medium tear strength, sewable, breathable, waterproof-ish

The material is not super slippery. It does have some texture and sewing is fairly easy. I wouldn't say that the tear strength is not super high. I can rip a cut in the fabiric by hand with medium force. The fabric is hydrophobic and seems breathable and like most breathable fabrics, long exposure to water will allow minor absorption and sweat through, but acceptable. Water can seep through under faucet pressure, which is outside of normal use.

Thanks for the review Andrew, it sounds like you did some great testing with the fabric. We'd love to see what you create out of it, be sure to tag us on social media. Happy Sewing!

MTN XL Hybrid Ripstop Nylon

My first purchase from Ripstop By The Roll and my order was received very quickly! The quality of the material is exactly as I hoped for and I can already tell it's going to be perfect for the tent project i'm working on. Thank you Ripstop! I'll be a repeat customer for sure.

Thanks for the review Corey! We're glad this was exactly what you were looking for to build your tent. Be sure to share photos of it when you're finished. Happy Sewing!

Great fabric!

I love the hybrid grid on this fabric! I’m currently in the process of treating it with a diy silicone treatment. I needed a bit heavier fabric than the standard Silnylon because I have three boys 7 and under that are rough. I’m very excited to work with this fabric! Thank you!

Thanks Aaron! Let us know how your project turns out. Happy Sewing!

Not like it use to be

The 1.7 MTN Black that I received, now has a shiny side and Is Regular on the other side and doesn’t have the same feel that I really enjoy hopefully this is just a temporary thing and goes back to what it used to feel lik. not a fan of the new 1.7 MTN

Super strong fabric

This stuff feels like it could hold a rhino but is somehow still lightweight and comfortable. Makes a great hammock that's comfortable without much stretch!
