The bottom-entry design provides full bug protection without zippers or requiring the net to be pulled over the end of your hammock for entry. A shock-corded opening along the bottom allows you to enter and exit while helping the net close back around the hammock.
Features
- Shock-corded bottom entry
- Choice of 0.7 oz Nano-See-Um or 0.9 oz No-See-Um netting
- Drawstring opening at one end to retract net when not needed
Choosing Your Size
Select the size that matches your hammock length. For example, select the 11’ option for an 11’ hammock. If your hammock length falls between the available choices, select the next size up.
Sizing is based on a typical structural ridgeline length of approximately 83% of the hammock length. If your ridgeline differs from this, please include its actual length in the order notes.

This bug net worked perfectly with our Superior Gear hammock. Didn't like how tight it felt with the zip-on bugnet and this was just the ticket. Not many vendors offering the bottom entry bugnet with the wide end for kicking if off the hammock. Jared was super kind and made sure I got it on time. Thanks!
Meticulous to details. Bought from SLD
about 10 years ago. Same high quality
Gear and quick turnaround time.
Thanks so much.
Easy to use and top notch quality.
Last year I was ready to upgrade my hammock kit for backpacking and saw incredible reviews for Simply Light Designs everywhere—various hammock and backpacking subreddits, hammockforums, etc. After a doing a bunch of research and asking Jared a bunch of questions, which he was always quick to answer, I pulled the trigger on a new Tree Runner in Hexon 1.6 and a modular Trailwinder underquilt. I started using them right away. The hammock is a dream to sleep in. So comfortable. The UQ is perfect for conditions in my area. When I was ready to upgrade my bug net I went with SLD again for one in .7 with the winter opening. I had a small issue with the fit, and Jared was awesome to work with on getting it sorted out quickly and easily. It's so much lighter than my old one and will be on my hammock this weekend in an area with heavy mosquito pressure. Can't wait. I preach SLD to everyone I know who is looking to upgrade or just get into hammock camping.
I have been dealing with Jared since he first started ....i never gave a review . i need a lot of time , to review anything, put it thru hard use, and durability testing. TOP NOTCH WORKMANSHIP through out .
can't be better .. i've got many , many hammocks, many ,many tarps, over a dozen Catch-All Sacks ( which i helped develop ), dozens of stuff sacks , custom bug nets , custom socks , gear hammocks , and more. i am a full time hammocker , for more than 15 years , 7 / 365, even when i was working , ALL SEASON -10°F to 100°F , even hurricanes
