    Inner and outer fabric choices for a double-layer....?

    5'9"/ 200lbs. 3-season
    I want to be able to use the [many] pads I've already invested in between the layers, rather than adding a UQ purchase to my bankruptcy proceedings.

    Chime in.... what and why?

    Lightest first, color preference 2nd. Because the strength of the two layers together is typically 350+ rated for the lightest fabrics.

    Double layer Hexon 1.0. Perfect for your weight. Very comfy for your weight range. I made one for myself and it is great. My .02.
