outdoor gear and apparel at Outdoor Retailer Summer Market 2016 - CORDURA® TPX

"We continue to react to consumer feedback and expand our fabric offerings to
add versatility to our portfolio and leading brands’ end-use products," said
Cindy McNaull, global CORDURA® brand and marketing director. "The addition of
CORDURA® TPX fabric provides gear with enhanced durability and a waterproof

black/orange, navy and gray. However, customers are able to further customize
the design using swatches from the production department.
According to Mark Chen, business manager at Chang Ho, "driven by a demand for
lighter and lighter weight products, laminates are becoming increasingly popular
option for today's clothing and equipment. Another benefit is the ability to
combine materials with different characteristics to maximize the advantages of
each. So when we were asked often: 'what material is better and stronger than
our current CORDURA® bag and pack fabric offerings,' CORDURA® TPX technology was
our answer."
CORDURA® TPX fabric will be on display as part of the CORDURA® + Brown
Buffalo Capsule Collection - a bag and pack collaboration created for OR
