ARGON 90
$8.03 – $9.10
ARGON Fabric is specially made for us as the cutting-edge ultimate nylon quilt material. It resists wind and sheds water enough to be the outer shell of a quilt, yet it is breathable enough to be used as the inner shell. It has a very tight weave, has a top-of-the-line DWR finish, is calendared and completely down proof. ARGON CS90 is 15 denier for added durability and is extremely tough.
Sold by the linear yard.

Top notch stuff.Top notch stuff. I bought several yards to stock up for a winter quilt build. Intending to buy a few more, than the insulation, etc…. Well, I have to start over because this stuff felt so amazing and was so tough, I went about building stuff sacks for every singe piece of hunting, hammocking, and fishing gear I own that needed compact storage and, organization while being stored or packed for use. Every single piece. I love this stuff.
It will be the shell material in every top and under quilt I ever build. It makes DANDY stuff sacks too. It stretches just enough to make getting your gear in there but, strong enough to not rip while doing so.
Give it a try for any shell material on your builds. You’ll love it. God Bless

I got this for the outer layer of my underquilt
I got this for the outer layer of my underquilt. The quality is pretty great. There are a few spots where my 900 fp down (also aquired from Dutch) is poking through after a few dozen uses, but nothing too bad. The lighter weight Argon (the inside layer of my underquilt) hasn’t had any down poke through yet.
The material sheds water drops pretty well, blocks the wind reletively decently, the comfort of the argon with the down is amazing, and it all compresses down and fluffs back up very nicely. It also seems almost weightless when you hold it.
I have plans of making a top quilt out of the same material eventually (inside, and out) to reduce the bulk & weight of my sleeping bag. I’ve been very pleased so far.

Purchased the Woodland Camo and black to make a full length UQ for my spouse.
Purchased the Woodland Camo and black to make a full length UQ for my spouse. He loved it. Silky touch yet seems very durable. We live in the damp Pacific NW and often camp at the coast, so we are no strangers to rain and wind during out outdoor adventures. This fabric has done an excellent job at repelling moisture and preventing feathers from escaping. Highly recommend.

I made an underquilt with Argon 90 and this stuff is amazing. I used it every single day for 5 months on my Appalachian Trail thru hike. It does not leak down at all and its really tough. Even when conditions were wet and humid my down was fine. I highly recommend Argon for any down projects.

Making a quilt. Which side is DWR? I’m thinking the shiny side goes out and the dull side is in against the down. It’s better to ask and not assume. Thanks

You should want the shiny side inside the quilt and dull side against your skin.

Is the DWR finish on both sides (calendared/shiny side AND dull/matte side) or is it just a coating on just the dull/matte side? Thanks.
