Set up in minutes. Sleep like you're home.
The trip only goes sideways after dark.
- Lie back at camp without swatting bugs
- Rest off the ground instead of on hard dirt
- Stay out under the net once the light goes
- Quick to hang
Clip the straps and carabiners around two trees and the hammock hangs ready for you to climb in.
- Light to carry
It packs light, so it earns its place in your pack and carries without a second thought.
- Cradled while you rest
The fabric gathers around you as you climb in, so you settle into a gentle curve and rest.
- Family gets a turn
Once you have had your swing, the family will want a turn too, so it gets shared around camp.
Why it works
Made for how you actually camp
Gear you forget about
Good gear should disappear into the background. When your setup just works, you stop thinking about it and start noticing where you are.
Light on your back
Every gram matters when you carry it all day.
Made for real weather
The outdoors does not wait for perfect conditions, and neither should your gear.
Fewer, better things
We would rather make gear made for many seasons than gear you replace every season.

Questions
Asked before you buy
How does the bug net work on this hammock?
A fine mesh net is attached along the upper edge of the hammock and sits over you like a canopy. You climb in, settle the net over the top and lie back. It lets you listen to the bush at dusk instead of swatting at mozzies every thirty seconds.
How do I hang it between two trees?
There are straps and carabiners at each end. Wrap a strap around each of two sturdy trees, clip the carabiners on, and check it hangs in a gentle curve before you climb in. Once you have done it once or twice, it is quick to get up at the campsite.
Who is this hammock suited to?
It suits campers who would rather be off the ground than lying in a tent. It also suits anyone who wants a quick setup so they can sit back with a cold one while there is still light. It is a good pick if you want your own spot to rest at camp while the rest of the family settles in.
What comes with the hammock?
You get the hammock with its mesh net canopy, two tree straps, two carabiners, two cords and a stuff sack to pack it all into.
Why pick a hammock over a tent?
You hang it between two trees, so you do not need flat ground. You lie up off damp, uneven ground with the net over you to keep the bugs off.
How do I pack it up?
Unclip the carabiners, take the straps off the trees and pack it all into the stuff sack. It is light to carry, so it goes in your pack or the ute without fuss.
