Shredex 0 #1 February 4, 2014 Where can I buy the supplex, curdura, and spandex that are used on jumpsuits? For personal sewing practice/future rigging benefits. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
councilman24 36 #2 February 4, 2014 Paragear has some. I bigger selection is at seattle fabrics. Google and you'll find it. Local fabric store will have some you can start with.I'm old for my age. Terry Urban D-8631 FAA DPRE Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shredex 0 #3 February 4, 2014 I've ordered some online already but all the stuff I keep getting doesn't seem to be what I'm looking for. So many variations of fabric that I just don't know exactly what's needed. Trying to make a fast falling freefly suit/pants/shorts with spandex parts for flexibility. The only fabric paragear has that I'm interested in is the mesh inner-liner. I'll try seattle fabrics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tony did my suit custom for me, but due to some color shortages I ended up providing my own material. According to the production team they said it was good stuff. I got my water resistant/proof nylon supplex (supplex is just a brand name weave of nylon, not a different fiber altogether) from..... http://www.rockywoods.com/Fabrics-Kits/Supplex-Nylon-Fabric/SUPPLEX-Water-Repellent-Nylon-Fabrics They will send samples. I got my spandex (for back and sleeves) from... http://spandexworld.com/c3/catalog/browse/33 I ordered the "milliskin" matte variety which is supposed to be tougher for "athletic" purposes. They will also ship samples. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shredex 0 #6 February 4, 2014 Of course they don't have "white" supplex in the selection box...lol Seems good for other colors, though. And that spandex world seems pretty steep on shipping cost... I'm gonna try and look around for some more affordable options before I have to lay down $50 for one yard of spandex that I need :| Thanks for the info!
