    I got my order of 7yards gray silnylon seconds today. Opened it up and noticed it looked oddly. Like olive green. Just wondering if anyone else got gray is this gray? I imagined the gray of hammock forums fill color above the posting box..

    That is a common shade for gray silnylon. It will also look "green" indoors as opposed to daylight.

    Ok I don't mind the color was just unsure if it actually was gray.

    +1 the dimensions are 67" wide and I got an extra 8" long. Also looks to be top quality.

    Yeah that's what I imagine grey would look like. Mines definately not that color and I checked my order sheet it was grey. I like the color so I'm keeping it. If it came yellow or red I may have returned it.

    Does it have the two racing stripes down the center about 12 or so inches apart slightly off center?

    Hey guys -
    The silnylon 2nds we have does definitely have a faint olive hue. It's very gray, but in the right light there is some olive look to it.

    If for some reason you did get olive breathable ripstop rather than silnylon, let me know and I'll get you fixed up, though I do definitely remember cutting the sil for your order.

    The silnylon 1sts gray has a much more standard gray look.

    Hope that helps a bit, and don't ever hesitate with questions through the contact form at www.diygearsupply.com.

    Enjoy your project!

    I am so so sorry for my mistake. I just realized we where talking about silnylon. The 1.1 I got is not sil. I ordered plain old ripstop. I am really sorry, I have a tendency sometimes to have selective reading along with my hearing.
