Description
210D Nylon Fabric – Charcoal Grey | PU Coated Water-Resistant Pack Cloth
Our 210D charcoal grey nylon fabric is a lightweight, flexible pack cloth designed for bags, liners, covers, organizers, outdoor accessories, and everyday utility applications. Built with a plain weave 210D nylon construction and finished with a polyurethane (PU) coating plus a DWR (durable water repellent) finish, this fabric offers dependable water resistance while staying easy to cut, sew, and handle.
The charcoal grey color gives this fabric a clean, modern, and professional look that works well for backpacks, stuff sacks, gear liners, travel accessories, lightweight covers, cases, and commercial sewn products. Compared to heavier nylon fabrics like 420D or 1000D, 210D nylon is lighter, more packable, and easier to sew while still offering useful durability for light-to-medium duty projects.
