Hello. This is Kayaba from the ApparelX trend blog.
Today, I would like to introduce products from a newly listed maker.
This brand is a little different from the others on ApparelX. It is not a brand exclusively for cords; it is the brand name Maruko Co., Ltd. uses for a wide range of outdoor and survival gear. (Paracord, related parts, LED lights, first-aid supplies, footwear powder, etc.)

Among these, we have listed paracord made in the United States on ApparelX.
The inside of paracord contains 7 core strands made from 2 to 3 nylon strands, and it has the strength to withstand a load of 550 lb (250 kg).
It was originally developed for military use for soldiers, so it is extremely durable.

Originally a material used for outdoor and camping goods, it was often used in bags and gear for men, but recently it has been widely used by both men and women for hoodie drawstrings, bag handles, smartphone shoulder straps, hats, and more.
Also, when we asked sales staff, it seems there are many cases of it being used in pet products as well. (Mainly collars, leashes, etc.)
According to the materials we received, its uses range widely, including tent and tarp setup, hammock suspension cords, clotheslines, and cords for tying up luggage.
In addition, the inner yarn can be pulled out one strand at a time, and that yarn can also be used as a substitute for fishing line or sewing thread. On the U.S. website, there are examples of uses that make you wonder if they are really true.
U.S.-made paracord does not fade or bleed color, so you can enjoy the same color for a long time. As mentioned earlier, its load-bearing capacity is 250 kg, so there is little breakage due to age-related deterioration, and the person in charge also said, [We have handled it for more than 10 years, but we have never heard of any cases of it breaking.].
With such a wide variety of colors and such high color fastness, this is the kind of cord that seems like it would become more and more beloved the longer you use it.
