Will the 100% nylon hold up to weather better than the combo nylon/cotton version?

I have had mine for 2 years sitting out in the harsh texas sun and the cold icy winters. it has weathered storm after storm and a tornado. It is still holding strong except the beautiful colors have faded a lot. It does come with a duffl storage bag (at least mine did) if you want to store it when not in use.

We screwed hooks into our trees and use clasps to quickly set up the hammock as needed. This allows us to keep it out of most of the nasty weather. It was out for maybe a handful of ohio summer storms. The nylon held up fantastically and shows no signs of wear and tear. Also, the nylon air dries quickly and doesn't hold odor. Very happy with our jumbo nylon. However, ours is in the shade, so I can't speak for sun damage.

80% Cotton - 20% Nylon Great for the Price, just not as comfortable as my MediPeds.

I bought one too, rain shouldn't effect it at all as it is made of a thick nylon thread

The fabric was a very fine weave and incredibly small fiber. All four side folded took up less space then one of my old nylon sides. I would suspect that they would be windproof just not durable.

kind of a nylon and cotton, but very durable and yes same on both sides. i have not felt it lately but i think its also fleece on the main side too.

These hold up under wind, rain & snow. Just use KampDry before you take it out. Might want a tarp for the ground...

100% cotton is definitely heavy duty and they can last 100+ washes easily. Due to 100% cotton you should remove from dryer promptly to minimize wrinkles

The thick nylon material has protected my husband's bass many times while traveling in rain. I wouldn't drop it in a lake and expect it to remain dry, but it's served it purpose very, very well.

Hi,Our hammocks are made with 100% cotton in the body and 100% nylon in the extremes or arms.... this is for the resistance of the hammock.Your body will be in 100% cotton.Is this OK ?, please, let us know your opinion.Many thanksAbraham Razucustomer service

These straps are nylon and soft and are easier on surfaces, my polyester ones are not as soft. A little information I found. Nylon is great for high abrasion applications. It is not recommended to use in or around water continuously because it absorbs water quickly, causing mildew and rot if not taken care of. Flat nylon will also stretch up to 2% of its length when the webbing is saturated. Polyester is ideal for heavy loads with high abrasion. Polyester webbing has the same soft, smooth feel, and shiny appearance of Flat nylon. It also has the benefits of Polypropylene, low water absorption, and excellent mildew and rot resistance. Only Polyester allows Sublimation. These straps are nylon and soft and are easier on surfaces, my polyester ones are not as soft. A little information I found.

Yes; I've now got three, and all but the newest one have been washed repeatedly. They've held up very well. And they dry very quickly, being nylon.

It is already weather treated but if you want added protection, I would try the poly.

The tag says "Rugged nylon, water-repellent, urethane coated for extra durability" and the top cover extends over the sides. It's probably not impermeable, but certainly can withstand some rain.

Best warm-weather EMS pants I've found. They're somewhere between rip-stop nylon and a normal solid work-pant. They dry quickly, wipe clean (ish), and are cooler overall than most pants of a similar style.

It is nylon . Not real water resistant bc mine will get soaked in the field. It is used military equipment. It is a good deal and has held up with me

The fabric is synthetic, and not natural, such as cotton. The shade should withstand damp weather just fine, even with some direct rain. But, I would roll the shade up, when not needed, or during heavy blowing rain storms, just to add to its life. It might mildew over a long period of time. But, it should be generally ok with wet weather conditions.

No, it doesn't hold up to the weather. I'm on my second one in two years after the first one was replaced because of it ripping to shreds. The second one did the exact same thing. Save your money....
