Different Fabric Types Many people asks about the different types of fabrics that are available and why so many choices. The answer is an easy one. Different types of fabric is neccessary depending on the elements in which the clothing will be worn. For example, if you will be wearing your BDUs in a cold climate you would be apt to choose the Swat cloth that is made of 65% polyester / 35% cotton blend. This blend offers some wind resistance and is a slightly heavier fabric.Many people, on the other hand, only prefer to wear a certain type of fabric. Some will say that the 100% cotton ripstop is a much more comfortable fabric. This is just customer preference. Below you will see the major differences between the types of fabric.
