Fabrics

Go Crazy Jumpsuits are constructed with quality fabrics from the major fabric mills in the world. Terrie knows fabrics well through her education and experience. Go Crazy refuses to scrimp on cheap fabrics. We utilize a variety of fabrics to meet each individuals needs and expectations. Below are some of the common fabrics we use. we continue to research the fabric suppliers for new and innovative fabric options.

Supplex
Supplex is specially engineered to provide the soft feel of cotton with the strength, durability and performance of nylon. Supplex is as strong as it is soft, resisting abrasions, punctures and tears. It’s breathable and odor, wind, and water resistant.

Spandex
 

Good quality Spandex is hard to find. And Go Crazy takes the effort to find the good stuff. A heavyweight 2 way stretch spandex is used in our jumpsuits. (There is no such thing as 4 way stretch in fabric, after all, stretching to the left is the same as stretching to the right. And up stretch is the same as down stretch. But if you still want to call it 4 way stretch, then go ahead, we will understand anyway. Unless you found a way to stretch it through time, then you should get hold of someone like Steven Hawking)

Ripstop/Taffeta
 

Light weight, slippery fabric, just what is needed to help you increase your fall rate to keep up with the rocks on the load. Must be lined for comfort. It is what Camera wings are made of.

Cordura 1000 denier
 

Heavy weight nylon fabric used to protect the high abrasion areas on the DZO suit and also used in grips and bootie construction.

Poly/Cotton
 

A strong, durable fabric with good fall rate control characteristics. Used mainly in Freefall suits and the DZO Suit. Lots of colours and comfortable wearing

Heavy Poly/Cotton
 

Another strong, durable fabric with good fall rate control characteristics. Used in the larger Freefall suits and the DZO Suit. Excellent fabric choice for heavier jumpers needing drag and those wanting an almost bulletproof suit for general use.

Cotton Canvas
 

Heavy weight cotton duck, for slow suits and FreeFly pairs. It is available pre dyed in some solid colours, see the swatch card or call us.

If you want something special, we can start with 100 percent natural cotton canvas, then we custom colour dye or tie-dye it to your choice of colours. Each suit becomes an individual, unique piece of wearable, airworthy art. Not quite as tough as hemp, but still a very durable suit

Silk
 

The original high tech fabric. It is what parachutes were made of before nylon. Strong, light weight, beautiful feel and fly ability. Can be obtained in many unique and beautiful colours and designs. Terrie can use silk as a canvas to paint images or patterns that you desire, then incorporates them into your own custom jumpsuit. Amazing tie dye and batik patterns make for a truly individual suit. Though not at tough as nylon, it is a luxurious fabric to wear.

Special Order only, Custom solid and tie dyed colours, Call for more info

 

HEMP
 

A mid-weight soft canvas style fabric, natural colour is an off white with a very slight greenish tint. Hemp is extremely strong and durable (you should see what it does to our scissors when we cut it). Hemp is ideal for creating wild tie-dye and custom colour patterns. It is well worth the slightly higher price. Probably the toughest fabric around. Owners of our hemp suits ecstatically report that their hemp freefly suits have the best balance of any suit they have used. We have new sources for heavier and lighter weight fabrics now, for even greater range and versatility. Hemp doesn't wear out, it wears in, becoming softer and more comfortable with each wash. Hemp breaths, helping you to stay cool in warm weather.
