    ENO Fabric Question ?

    I have owned an ENO DN for a while and trying to ID the fabric. ENO says is a "High Strength Breathable Woven Nylon".

    Do any of the fabric gurus know exactaly what that translates into in layman terns ?

    I have a Trek Light hammock which appears to be the same kind of fabric as the ENO. The Trek Light website calls it light weight parachute fabric. Not sure what that means????

    Piece-dyed Tafetta; curiously it was the first successful fabric for hot air balloons (lighter than air craft) and now it keeps us off the ground in another way!
