I bought the navy striped curtains. The curtains are more toward a black color than navy, but they work perfectly for my patio. They are not weighted curtains but they are by no means flimsy. They are made of a very durable fabric and provide a great barrier to the hot Louisiana sun. There is a pocket that runs across the bottom of the curtain where a second rod could be slid through to make the curtain more taught. These curtains were exactly what I was looking for and highly recommend them.
