Cordura is the brand name for a collection of fabrics used in a wide array of products including luggage, backpacks, trousers, military wear and performance apparel. Cordura fabrics are known for their durability and resistance to abrasions, tears and scuffs.
Originally developed and registered as a trademark by E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (DuPont) in 1929, it is now the property of Invista (a wholly owned subsidiary of Koch Industries). Cordura fabrics are usually made of nylon, but may be blended with cotton or other natural fibers.
DuPont originally introduced the fabric as a type of rayon. The product was further developed during World War II and used by the military in tires. In 1966, when new formulations of nylon proved superior, the Cordura brand name was transferred to the nylon product instead. In 1977 researchers discovered a process for dyeing Cordura, which opened a wide variety of commercial applications. By 1979 soft-sided Cordura luggage had captured about 40 percent of the luggage market. Several classic brands that remain popular today continue to use Cordura fabric in their products. Eastpak was the first brand to use Cordura fabric in their packs, while JanSport used the canvas-like nylon in their original daypacks in the 1970s and continue to use it today. In the 1980s Manhattan Portage began using 1000D Cordura Nylon in their bags. In the 1990s, European workwear clothing brands adopted the 1000D and 500D fabric for reinforcements. Clothing brands such as F. Engel, Fristads Kansas, Snickers and Scruffs use the fabric. Cordura is also used today in most mid- to higher- end textile motorcycle jackets and pants due to its high abrasion resistance. It is found in motorcycle gear made by companies such as Klim, Rukka, MotoPort, Rev'It, Olympia, AeroStich, and Dainese.

Vanquest ( http://www.vanquest.com ). Sent me a couple of samples to do a torture test - one made of regular 1000D Nylon, the other of 1000D Cordura. Be sure to watch to the end, because the tests get pretty crazy! In the end, the Cordura showed that it was superior to regular 1000D Nylon! #Vanquest #TortureTest Get your ALOwens gear here: http://alowens.spreadshirt.com Add me to your Google Circles: https://plus.google.com/+Thealowens/ Follow me on Twitter: http://bit.ly/twitterALOwens Follow me on Instagram: http://instagram.com/thealowens Please Subscribe to The AMFAW Network: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheAMFAWchannel https://www.youtube.com/user/Jarhead6Videos https://www.youtube.com/user/TheALOwens https://www.youtube.com/user/BudgetBugout https://www.youtube.com/user...

El Conde aborda la nueva sensación en juegos de SmartPhone: Pokemon Go, e inevitablemente se topa con varios detractores.
Out there in the shadows of suburbia
Minds consumed by substance, only cold hearts survived
A gathering of mutants in disorder
Way below the surface something is still alive
Confrontation, terror is the law
Beneath the ruins of this ghetto war
Ghetto war
Losers in this sickening Reich of Mammon
Penetrate realities of fake plastic men
Side by side, their heads filled with adrenaline
Nothing stops this hate flow, now the war begins
Confrontation, terror is the law
Beneath the ruins of this ghetto war
Ghetto war
Energy explodes as one
Neon rays erase the sun
Bitter end of harmony
Filled with hate and misery
Ghetto war, ghetto war
