polyester vs cotton. Poly doesnt breathe, Cotton does.
The material used in an Elk Mountain Tent actually has a breathability nearly identical to traditional canvas.
Polyester fabrics differ drastically from company to company and fabric to fabric. However, for most polyester-based materials, you are correct. For example, the Alaknak is known for having poor breathability and condensation issues.
