Parachute silk is a type of lightweight, durable fabric traditionally made from silk fibers, used primarily in the construction of parachutes. Its unique properties, such as high tensile strength and resistance to tearing, make it ideal for aerial applications. While natural silk was once the standard, modern parachutes often utilize synthetic materials like nylon or polyester, which offer similar benefits at a lower cost and with improved weather resistance. Parachute silk is also sometimes referenced in the context of fashion and textiles for its smooth texture and sheen.
