Ive taken the liberty to use fabric instead of burlap for the simple fact that after a couple of machine washings (make sure fabric is well attached to BDU, Flight Jacket etc.)it ravels out and looks very thick and quite nice. Also fabric seems to pick more foilage up while you are in wooded areas than burlap. I havent had any thing to come loose after around 15 intense usages so i figure this is ok. If im making a huge mistake please let me know!
