    Introducing Black 400d Dyneema®/nylon

    In late 2012, we introduced a new weight of our Dyneema/nylon ripstop fabric: 400d Dyneema®/420d nylon. It’s tough enough to serve well as an exterior fabric in our travel bags and backpacks yet it’s still ultralight in weight.

    Our 400d Dyneema®/420d nylon was first introduced in colors Steel grey and Nordic blue. Now we’ve added a third color: Black

                Wow! For the first time, I actually think I would consider a bag (rather than accessory) in dyneema.

                    As I watched my Saints win Monday Night Football I thought how nice a Black Dyneema/Solar combination would (will?) look!

                      More choices from Tom Bihn! SWEET!
                      So much Nordic Dyneema I don't even know what to do with myself anymore. They will bury me in it. "Where's Mom's urn? WHERE DID YOU GUYS PUT THE SYNAPSE 19 WITH MOM'S ASHES?"

                        Well I was hoping for Nordic/Solar but now I'm torn! The black with solar would be very nice...

                        Maybe I'll just have to find an excuse to get something in both combinations? (availability permitting, of course, hint hint!!!)

                          Will the Synapse 25 be available in the new black Dyneema at some point?

                            Just when I'm ready to pull the trigger on an Aubergine/Wasabi Co-Pilot, you tempt me with another choice!

                              I'm glad I didn't put an order I've been sitting on for months in yesterday! More options = more deliberation required...

                              Oh if only the Co-Pilot were already available... I'm going to Israel/Jordan in two weeks, so waiting to mid-November is clearly not going to work for me. Oh well.

                              Will there be other lining options worked in? I'm sure Black/Wasabi looks great, but I'd love to see more interior Ultraviolet, Iberian, and Solar! Also, will Upper and Lower Module Pockets be coming in Black Dyneema? I don't see them as options on the Smart Alec page.
                              Own: Aeronaut 45 (Navy/Iberian), Aeronaut 30 (Steel/Ultraviolet), Night Flight (Coyote/Steel), Guide's Pack (Steel), Synapse 19 (Olive/Steel), Daylight (Navy), Aeronaut Packing Cube Backpack (Wasabi), Founder's Briefcase (Black), Pilot (Steel 400d/Steel), Co-Pilot (Black/Iberian), Side Effect (Black/Ultraviolet), Travel Tray (Iberian), various cubes, pouches, sacks, and straps
