I emailed Clark inquiring as to the exact materials their straps are made from. We'll see what they have to say. I am curious. As cooldays said, they are very, very light compared to any others I've used.

I hope you have better chance than i did,they only gave me the ratings for the straps and rope and said nothing about properties of the webbing when i prompted them!Originally Posted by sir_n0thing
They only told me that they were available and ready to ship.
Here is the response I received...

I've been using polypro for months and months, 1 inch thick, works great, no stretch. I weigh 150. Lighter than standard webbing, and the webbing that came on my WBBB.
IMHO the 1 inch vs 2 inch tree strap should be more about protecting the bark than how bulky it is in the pack. When you get a little beefy like some of us guys that extra width really counts.
I spent most of my money on beer and women and hammocks.
The rest I just wasted.
