Ripstop fabrics are woven fabrics, usually made of nylon. A special reinforcing technique makes them resistant to tearing and ripping. During weaving (thick) reinforcement threads are interwoven in a crosshatch pattern. The intervals are typically 0.2 to 0.3 in. Thin and lightweight ripstop fabrics have a 3-dimensional structure. This is due to the thicker threads being interwoven in thinner cloth. Ripstop originated during World War II. It was designed to replace silk with a less expensive material in parachutes.
