Crumpler always have advertised using nylon too. From Dupont Cordura when they first arrived commercially in Singapore to their latest whatever-its-called-material. All should be nylon. Unless there's a bag I missed out?

At $4.90 each....does it really matter besides mine is close to 7 years and still works well. Rain or shine no issue, if heavy rain i just use NTUC plastic bag over it.
