Polyester
Min erfarenhet säger att polyester är mer "vattenavstötande" än nylon, men däremot inte lika tåligt. Erfarenheten kommer ifrån yttertyget på mina GTX-jackor. Se också detta klipp ifrån MEC:
Face Fabrics
A garment's outside fabric affects performance as much as design and features do. Polyester and nylon differ in their inherent waterproofness and abrasion resistance, so choose an external fabric that suits your intended use.
Polyester
Polyester is inherently quick drying and water-repellent. It absorbs only a tenth as much water as nylon, keeping the inside surface of the garment warmer and reducing interior condensation. Unlike water repellent DWR finishes applied to a fabric, polyester's low absorbency is integral and will not wear or wash off. However, polyester is less abrasion resistant than nylon, so for high-abration pursuits, such as bushwacking, choose a more durable nylon garment.
Nylon
With its high abrasion resistance, nylon is the preferred face fabric for garments meant for rugged uses such as climbing and mountaineering. Although not as water repellent as polyester, good-quality nylons offer excellent durable water repellency. New lightweight nylon fabrics are supple and compressible, but still offer tough protection. Innovations such as false-twist yarns add durabilty in high-wear areas and improve rain and snow shedding ability.
Angående MSR-tält så är det ju "gamla" Mosstält som hade väldig bra renommé i USA tidigare, nu vet jag inte. Äger själv ett tuuungt Moss Little Dipper som är extremt stabilt och bra. MSR Fury är fd Moss Stardome, som också ansetts som ett riktigt bra tält. MSR har för övrigt vidareutvecklat Mosstälten till att bli framför allt lättare samt smartare (snabbare och lättare) uppsättning.
