Cordura® is a group of nylon based fabrics renowned for durability and used for reinforcement in particularly exposed areas for increased longevity.

Klättermusen has used Cordura® since it was sold with DIY backpack kits in the 80’s and remains a preferred reinforcement fabric for its high resistance to abrasion.

Cordura® is used when fabrics come into prolonged contact with exposed ground and rock surfaces. This is of particular importance to frameless backpacks, but also applies to some backpacks with frames.
