Both, why limit yourself to just one? I love traditional gear, but I do like the new fabrics etc too. I'd love a canvas tarp, but without a horse to cart everything around I have to use modern silnylon or polycotton tarps due to the weight. I like a good mix of traditional and modern when it comes to kit. You do pay a premium for the traditional gear though, but I think the longevity of the kit is worth the extra spondooliks.
