Why a vinyl type fabric instead of say, Ballistic cloth or Cordura?
For one, it is stronger and more abrasion resistant. It is more waterproof and the stiff fabric protects the contents better than a floppy fabric. Another neat thing is if you have your duffel strapped to a beast of burden with the common hemp type ropes normally used, the rope will actually saw through a Ballistic cloth bag. It will not with our VCN fabric.
