On this episode of the podcast, Joe sits down, once again, with Brigham (lead designer at Outdoor Vitals) to get into the nitty-gritty of exactly what is used to make your backpacking gear. The topics of this episode specifically dive into the categories of fabrics that go into things like backpacks, tents, sleeping bags, and clothing. You'll learn all about weaves, knits, and non-woven fabrics and what that means for backpackers like you.
