At MEEKO, we love using fabrics that are both cool and good for the planet. Today we want to tell you about a very special fabric called Cordura. This fabric is very strong and can be used for many things.

What is Cordura?

Cordura is a fabric first created by a company called DuPont in 1929. It is a fabric made primarily of nylon, but sometimes other materials like polyester are added as well. The great thing about Cordura is that it's super durable. It doesn't get damaged easily and it can even resist water and sunlight.

Why is Cordura great for eco-responsible sneakers?

It lasts a long time

Cordura is very durable, so it lasts a long time. This means you don't need to buy new shoes all the time, which is good for the planet.

It is comfortable

This fabric is also very flexible. This means it's great for sneakers or even if you just like walking in nature. You will feel comfortable with Cordura shoes.

It becomes more ethical

Some people worry because Cordura is factory made. But the good news is that some manufacturers are now using recycled materials to make it. This is a good step forward to make this fabric even more eco-responsible.

What else is Cordura used for?

To make superb MEEKO sneakers but not only that. As Würth MODYF explains , it can also be used to make backpacks, work clothes, and even seat covers for cars.

To finish

Cordura is truly an incredible fabric for its strength and flexibility. But like everything, it also has less perfect sides, especially how it is made. At MEEKO, we always seek to use materials that are good for everyone and for the planet. Cordura is one of these materials, but we know that it can always be improved.
