This hammock chair is such a wonderful, multi purpose piece of gear. A lightweight haven for lounging in camp when I use my tent. At the end of the day, I can place my pack inside and zip it up for the night, freeing up space in my shelter. Craftsmanship is first rate!
The custom oversized (60"x54") gear hammock that you made me arrived a few weeks ago. As usual, you got it to me quickly and your workmanship is impeccable.
I used it instead of a camp chair on a 4 day AT hike last week, and was extremely pleased. With a pair of 6' straps and stuff bag, it was 8oz, less than half the weight of my REI flex lite, was at least as fast to deploy or take down, and was way more stable and comfortable.
I fastened the straps to the loops with a beckett hitches, one at ~head level, and one at ~waist level depending upon tree separation.
Bonus uses as needed include gear hammock and/or underquilt protection in bad weather (I normally hang my pack from the foot of my hammock), and use of the straps to extend the length of my hammock straps for big trees. The downside... you need trees ~5-10 part, not hard to find in the Southeast..
I took the gear hammock out last week for a two night trip and absolutely loved it. It is light, big and well made.
The Gear Hammock w/ waterproof zipper is the perfect compliment to my set up. I attached whoopie slings to the loops and slips over the ends of my Blackbird xlc. Its easily adjustable and fits my 65L pack & boots with room to spare. The Gear Hammock fits perfectly in the zippered strap pouch on the Hammock Catch All which I highly recommend (I like it better than the more expensive Anaconda). I couldn't imagine setting up without the Catch All or staying organized without the Gear Hammock. The (2)Skins are great too, fixes everything annoying about the snake skins.
