    Argon 90 or 67 inside?

    Would you prefer 90 or 67 for the fabric that is inside (in contact with the hammock)?

    I saw Shug has a locolibre habanero with Red Argon 90 Inside, and was wondering why he picked 90 and not 67.

    Will that have any impact at all (against the wind, for example) other than adding some weight?

    No reason to use a heavier material than 67, especially for the inner uq material, unless you are extremely rough on your gear to the point of being careless.

    I got 90 on the inside as that's all that was available for the burnt orange I wanted on my last two quilts. I can hardly tell the difference.

    Being a light-weight backpacker and moving from a tent to a hammock I did all the oz-shaving I could which is why I went with 67 vs 90 quilt inner despite it not coming in the color I wanted. I sacrificed color for weight.

    Argon 67 inside and also works on the outside I have quilts that use 67 inside and outside. More color choices in Argon 90 (camo rocks).

    I had George make me a Ghost Pepper with 67 both inside and out, and I love it!

    A90 FTW! It's my favorite quilt inner shell fabric.

    I go with Argon 90 on the inside just because of durability. I love the Argon fabric, but I don't trust myself with the 67. It would be luck that a twig would slip between my hammock and quilt and rip it to shreds.

    I've got both UQ and TQ in argon 67 on both inside and outside. It's super nice and light. I don't feel like I have to baby the gear more for that reason
