For full hanging, is it okay to use nylon or polypropylene?

Thickness of 10mm should do it?

If you're looking for partial/full suspension, almost any type of rope will work, but the less stretchy the better. Synthetic fibers like nylon, polyester etc stay put so you dont have a bungee jumping moment when you do it. I understand you're looking for comfort, and things like polyester and nylon are less scratchy than things like manila, but comfort doesn't always lend itself to durability.
From what I've read, people have recommended around 15mm+
