From glamorous silk stockings to lifesaving parachutes, nylon transformed the 20th century like few other materials. In this video, we trace the fascinating journey of nylon—from its invention by DuPont chemists in the 1930s as a synthetic silk substitute, to its crucial role in World War II, where it replaced scarce natural fibers in parachutes, ropes, and military gear. Explore how this versatile polymer reshaped fashion, industry, and technology, and discover how one synthetic thread wove itself into the fabric of modern life.
