The fabric is commonly known as <BTC>, which is made of polyester and cotton. BTC stands for Breathable Technical Cotton.
The surface of the fabric is water repellent. Urethane coating is not applied to the lining. In that respect, the waterproofness is lower than that of the urethane coating, but it does not deteriorate over time or the coating deteriorates due to being stored in a dry state. You can use it for a long time if you spray it with water repellent and do occasional maintenance.
Cotton has the best breathability, but cotton that can be woven to improve waterproofness is called "super long cotton", which is very thin and long. You can't improve your sexuality. Furthermore, <extra-long staple> is very expensive.
While maintaining the texture and breathability peculiar to cotton as much as possible, it is lightweight, has excellent quick-drying properties, and is a low-cost material. That is the fabric called <BTC>.
