Momentum 55™
Thru-Hiker is excited to offer Momentum 55, a 10d downproof ripstop at a remarkable finished weight of just 0.75 oz/yd2 (25g/m2).
M55 is by far the most wind and water resistant 10d we've ever seen due to its high threadcount and triple-pass DWR.
Momentum 55™ is currently only available in jet black and is in extremely short supply. There may be no more yardage available in any color until next year; we regret we are unable to provide further information regarding availability. So that the maximum number of people can get some of our limited stock there is a strict limit of ten yards per household.
Finished Weight: .75 oz/yd2 (25g/m2). Finish: Triple-Pass DWR. Higher wind/water resistance, lower breathability. Roll width: 58". Yarn: 100% nylon. Construction: 10d.

Price: $21.95/yd. Sold by the continuous linear yard by roll width. Strict limit of 10 yds. Please do not order more than 10 yards.

1.1 oz Nylon Ripstop 1sts
This 30 denier 1.1 oz/sq yd downproof nylon ripstop is breathable and lightweight. It is a less expensive choicer for shells, ultralite quilts and sleeping bags. 60-63" wide. Unfinished weight per square yard = 1.1 oz. Finished weight per square yard = 1.25 oz/sq yd nominal. First Quality.
The difference is between 1.1 oz and Momentum is quite stark. Over the 6 years M90 has been offered it has been shown to be as durable, more wind and water resistant, more attractive, and a better overall choice than this 1.1 oz fabric. For this reason the 1.1 oz is being discontinued in favor of M90. 1st Quality Fabric-- not a second or overrun. While supply lasts.
