so we are nearly out of the PGB-02's already, thank you all for your purchases. we are nearly ready to have the PGB-03's made but I have an important issue that I wanted to get all of your opinions on.

we are only debating the fabric choice at this point, which is...

1. The same natural black hemp fabric that we have been using, it looks floppy and is more likely to tear under heavy strain but it breathes very well.

2. A new black hemp fabric that has a resin coating which makes it much stronger and makes it look better by holding shape more. Drawback is that it is slightly less environmentally friendly and it would take away about 50% of the breathability but would still be more breathable then a heavy cotton canvas would be.

Keep in mind will will have the "nasty bags" (the nylon wet bags) included with all bags for the really wet nasty stuff.

So what do you guys think, is it worth losing some breathability for strength and form?

Please respond to me at chris {at} dsmma.com

I'll post proto pics of the PGB-03 here soon
