What is the best UL breathable truely waterproof fabric for a tent. Gortex or somehting else. Its been a while.
I have an idea for an ultralight tent, and am considering breathable WP material if I can find one light enough.
Also is cuben 100% waterproof ??
Mar 21, 2009 at 7:54 am #1487645Probably Event. But I'm not sure about the truly waterproof part. Say Troy, you don't know what a 6.5×47 Lapua is, do you?

I am getting back to my roots.Mar 21, 2009 at 8:37 am #1487651None that I know of are flame retardent.
Probably grey market Gore Dryloft would be the best
a lay person could get their hands on. After that
Epic.Joe, I am working on an inherited 25-284 and a 7×57 AI.
