What cloth is the most waterproof for a tent?
On the accounting, it usually has two functions, insulation moisture and anti mosquito, out in front of the consideration, it will usually use polyester taffeta, good permeability, and heat insulating ability, but if you only need anti mosquito gauze, then enough to deal with, when the high-density network is better. If the account is the four seasons or mountain account, so there is no doubt that all accounts are from taffeta to warm, if the summer camp or a single account for heat dissipation considerations, almost all the gauze for the three season usually account for gauze and taffeta each part is a pragmatic compromise the choice of.
