3.9 oz Venom UHMWPE TPU Coated Fabric Backpack

nice! is the 3.9 oz Venom as waterproof as the DCF hybrids? and can you tape the seams?

and how does the venom compare to the 6.5 oz Woven Melange?

I don’t think the Melange is waterproof, and the Venom is just super light compared to the Melange.

Tape was a mixed bag for me, the dyneema tape I had didn’t stick well but I think it was more because its only and inch thick and where I was applying it it needed to be thicker. In some spots where I didn’t need it thicker it stuck great.

I have not fully tested the waterproofness of the Venom but I do have some scraps I can play with later and get back to you.

How is this holding up? Also have you tried thermally bonding it together with a clothes iron, with or without wearing off the PU coating?

Isaac C, unfortunately havent put to many miles on it…ITs held up great though. Only reason why I don’t have a lot of mile son it is because I kept iterating and making more packs lol

I have not tried any bonding methods, I have just sewn it.
