What is waterproof fabric?
Waterproof fabric is a very broad concept. The composition of fabric used for the production of outerwear can vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. Most often, blended fabrics based on natural cotton are used. To give strength, elasticity and water-resistant properties to the fabric, manufacturers add synthetic threads, like polyester, viscose, or nylon.
So-called membrane coating can be applied to enhance the breathability and water-resistant properties of the waterproof fabric. In addition to cotton-based fabrics, fully synthetic materials are commonly used (Jordan, Dewspo, Oxford). These fabrics are produced due to modern technologies and possess excellent performance characteristics.
