TX-07 replacement

[Patrick W]

I made a pack of TX-07 and it survived the PCT.  I am tooling up to make a new and improved version this winter, but would like to use a fabric that isn’t violet colored (as TX-07 is).  I am looking at LS-07, which is in the same weight family.  Anyone have experience or insight on LS-07?

Hi Patrick,

Dimension-Polyant has a White version of TX-07 available.

LS07 Black is also commonly available.

Cheers,
Taylor

Thanks Taylor,  I would be happy to use white TX-07 but I have not found any.  What is your source?

I just made a pack, haven’t used it yet

Taylor works for Dimension Polyant, a better question would be “who have you sourced it to?”.  It looks like Rockywoods has some in grey , but it says the back has a purple hue, so it’s probably the same material you used?

[Patrick W]

I think so.

Patrick, do you think the purple shows through too strong from inside the pack? Kind of like bleeding-thru?

I have a sample on order, but I expect it could look different once the pack is complete.

Thanks.

I have some TX-07 in grey with a white backing that you are welcome to. Also, some VX-07 in black/white.

Steven, I made the pack with the tx07 inverted, so the purple/lavender is on the outside. I have a KS pack that was constructed in that way. I liked it and didn’t have abrasion problems.

[Patrick W]

Ryan, I’m interested.  I’ll PM you.

Thanks for the info, Patrick.

I have a ks50 in tx07 grey/white colour, and bought the same from rockywoods a year or so ago. Not seen it with purple. I’d go hybrid cuben given a choice.
