Durability ofCORDURA denim with all-day comfort of 4-way stretch.

CORDURA denim is engineered with a blend of military-grade INVISTA T420 nylon 6,6 staple fiber and cotton for an authentic denim look and feel with enhanced abrasion resistance and toughness.
To make these as comfortable as they are durable, we added 4-way stretch for unrestricted360 freedom of movement and, becauseCORDURA does not absorb wetness like cotton, the fabric will dry more quicklythan regular cotton denim.

*how durable is ourCORDURA denimfabric? in a standardized laboratory rub test (Martindale Abrasion BS EN ISO 12947-2:1999 Standard Woolen Abrasion with 12KPa weight), regular 100% cotton denim held up to between 75'000 to 25'000 rubs (depending on number of times the denim was washed) compared to the same weight CORDURA denim where they stopped the tests at 250'000 rubs on all samples because the denim was just not wearing through.

Our jackets have been pre-washed to soften the fabric, prevent shrinkage, and reduce the dark indigo dye from staining. however! some transfer of color can still occur, especially when wet. To reduce the risk we suggest washing the jackets before wear (following directions!) especially if white items will come in contact with the garment.
