Our Sailcloth
To make premium sailcloth travel and accessory bags you need to start with premium sailcloth, and that’s just what we did.
The Dacron® sailcloth found in our bags is custom-woven in Ireland by Hood Sailmakers, one of the world’s leading sailcloth manufacturers and sail designers. Founded in the 1950’s by the legendary Ted Hood, Hood Sailmakers pioneered the use of Dacron® for sail making, and has been at the forefront of sailcloth manufacturing ever since.
Strong, durable and resistant to sunlight, abrasion and water, Dacron® is an ideal fabric for soft-sided bags, and the sailcloth found in our products is the very same cloth that is used to power some of the largest and most prestigious racing, cruising and classic yachts in the world.
Another distinguishing feature of our sailcloth is that it is new, not recycled, refurbished, seconds or scraps. By using new sailcloth, we are better able to control the overall quality of the fabric, especially as it relates to its color, weave and finish.
Crisp and bright in texture and appearance, please know that the sailcloth in your bag will take on a patina over time and soften with use.
