Different mesh

I have ordered 1/4" spacer mesh on several occasions and it was perfect! However, this last batch is so thin! More like 1/8" spacer mesh. Apparently there is a new supplier. I would really like to see what the actual 1/8" is like now. I have sent samples back as requested but have heard nothing back. So disappointed.

Hey Ursula, thanks for your review and concerns. We realized this mistake and pulled all of the spacer mesh. We're more than happy to resolve the issue. Please email us at support@ripstopbyetheroll.com and we will take care of you.

Perfect backstay material for packs of

Not too many places that had a foam and mesh piece that I could use for my 31 yo terraplane pack. RSBTR had a perfect size foam and mesh piece. It was cheaper and thicker (which I wanted). The 1/4" size slipped in with a little help and now I can continue using my old pack for hiking. Thanks RSBTR!

Thanks David! We love the idea of repairing old gear to give it new life. That's one of the greatest parts of MYOGing. We appreciate your business and hope your pack has many more years of life in it. Let us know if we can be of any help in the future.

The truth

In a vacuum the 1/4" is great, more cushion and a breathable material. But then you work with it. 1/4" mesh is never being stitched alone. When your making shoulder straps you sew through mesh, foam, webbing, and nylon. My sewing machine cries when I do this. The same situation happens when I use it for back pads or hip belts. The material is just too thick. I say stick to the 1/8" mesh and if they ever make a 1/16" mesh then I'll buy that.

Thanks Danny for the review and the tips about the difficulties of sewing Spacer Mesh. We appreciate your business and the suggestions, let us know if you need anything in the future.

This stuff is great!

I used this for the shoulder straps on a trail running backpack. The material is light, strong and easy to work with. Consider pairing it with some 1 inch or 1.5 inch grosgrain to "bind" the edges for a clean look.

Thanks for leaving a review and a tip for binding edges! We hope you enjoy your new DIY trail running pack!

Spacer mesh

Bought both the thick and thinner options. Used the 1/4inch for shoulder straps and hipbelt. The thinner one was used to make a pocket inside a chest pouch and also used as padding for the back panel. Easy to work with.

We're glad to hear both sizes were easy to work with for your DIY projects! Happy Making!

Great spacer mesh

I have now bought both the 1/8 and 1/4 and they are both top quality fabrics. I have used them for shoulder strap undersides and although the 1/4 inch is far too much for my sewing machine it remains to be a great fabric. I will continue to buy fabrics from RBTR, always very happy with the fabrics, hardware, customer service and distribution. thank you.

Thank you so much Isaac! We're glad we can be your one-stop-shop for all things making your own gear.

Almost perfect, just wish it was 4D.

If they could figure out a way to make this 4D to include the time dimension, that would be ideal, but in the meantime I'll have to settle for 3D.

This is good stuff. Feels quality. buttery smooth and airy. I use it for straps and back or lumbar areas to add some cush and breathability. I definitely prefer the 1/4" over the 1/8" for the added padding albeit added weight. This stuff isn't light (18 oz/yd^2) and it also ain't cheap (45$/yd), so I use it intentionally and sparingly.

Note that I've tried spacer mesh from other websites and I can definitely tell you to avoid getting anything cheap. The cheap stuff feels cheap and compresses easily. Definitely worth the added cost to get this (Mil-Spec) stuff.

Thanks for the review Devon! We're glad you love this spacer mesh and that it works well for your projects!

Great mesh for backpack straps

Built a backpack using HyperD 300 and the 1/4" spacer mesh. I've had up to 30 pounds in it and it still feels great! Will definitely make straps with this again.

Awesome! Thanks so much for the review Mark. It's good to know your pack still felt nice with 30 lbs in it. We'd love to see photos of your pack, be sure to tag us on social media!

Exactly as described I haven’t had the chance to use it yet, it’s what I was looking for for strap padding

Thanks Jason! We're glad it's just what you needed for your straps. Happy Sewing!

Good stuff and comfy

This actually ran good in my machine, even with it doubled up. Seems really durable for what it is. Be advised- makes a huge mess when you cut it.

Thanks for the review Martin! We're glad this spacer mesh worked well for you. Enjoy!

Plush straps

Wanted some super cushy straps combined with with some 3/8 foam and they are amazing. Kinda hard to sew on a regular machine cause of thickness but that's to be expected

Hi Zac, Thanks for the review! I hope the straps serve you well.

Fantastic!

Love this fabric. Easy to work with. I worked with this fabric before, when I made my first pack. Found this fabric super comfy for shoulder straps and waist belt, that I decided to make another smaller pack using this fabric again. Thumbs up for this fabric.

Just what I was looking for!

This spacer mesh is nice. Perfect for the straps and waistbelt on my backpack project. I was worried that my basic sewing machine would not be able to see through it, but it ran like a charm. The 1/2 yard increment is great also as I still have plenty left over.
