I'd stick with a class 1 rope construction, poly/nylon. As long as its strong enough, it's fairly well up to you, it would seem.

i use platinum protect from teufelberger. cover and core are interwoven. but any burly polyester 16 strand will do the job. and when in doubt, for 2€ you get a new one.

Obenauf's is good stuff. Used to use it on my Wolverine work boots. The leather lasted great, but the soles fall apart, so I quit bothering. I still buy them as they are light, comfortable, and I can get them on sale for just over 100 bucks I remember when I was about 7 my dad had a black...
