Upholstery Question

we are getting ready to redo the saloon cushions. And we have decided to go with the faux leather product. My question is concerning material weight. One fabric says it is 20 oz per yd. the other says it is 7 oz per yd. The 7 oz material is supposedly the better of the two. So what does the weight mean? I know it is the weight of the material, but does it have anything to do with the quality? One is "Dura Touch" by nautolex, the other is "Destiny" by Magilite, (which is the material used by "hinckley" so I assume it to be quality material).
