well....or it is because the 1050 ballistic nylon is at his natural aspect and once time this last one is used and modified to get the form of a part of a luggage, ....ok....it become a 2520 ballistic nylon .....I think!!
A 1260 American made Ballistic Nylon is the best you can get at this time but they are coming up with new fabrics all the time. A 2520 Foreign made ballistic nylon is not a bad choice either.

suree
The ballistic nylon will be a higher denier (thickness of the thread). Also will be shiny/glossy compared to the matte finish of polyester. Ballistic nylon will be much more durable and much less likey to tear or scuff. You can get higher denier polyester (900, 1200, 1800) which will be better for wear and tear. The price will reflect this however as 600d poly is low to mid price point whereas the others are higher.
There are forms of Dacron that will act like a ballistic nylon. The fibers and construction of the materials are quite similar to one another.
If you go to any Monaca gun shop you should be able to find out where to get 600D ballistic nylon Cordura.
Denier is a unit of weight indicating the fineness of fiber filaments and yarns that are woven together to make up the ballistic nylon.

Basically, you clean luggage depending on the fabric of the luggage or the wheels and its parts. Some luggage can be cleaned using a wet agent while some are difficult to clean and need some tools and maybe creams and polishes to clean.
I believe that Polycarbonate ones are more durable. Especially in hardside luggage. They are also lightweight and they can protect better the things inside your bag.
