KM Elite quote 300–350g as typical for a competing 40\" net, and the extra 200g here is all yarn thickness — heavier strands that resist abrasion against a stable wall and hold their shape rather than sagging into a bag once the hay is in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEverything else follows from that. The mesh keeps its 2\" holes, the drawcord bites properly instead of pulling through, and the net survives being trodden on in a wet yard.
