Hammocks

Spending the night in a Tentsile tree tent can be a truly inspiring way to camp, but hovering in a mesh dome loses appeal once winter hits. The new Insulated Cabin supports cold-weather camping while creating impressive multi-story Tentsile setups.

Kammok pitches the Outpost vehicle hammock stand as an off-grid hammock and shelter solution for car campers and overlanders. Store it in the trunk, set it up and start lounging in about a minute, even when there are no suitable trees for miles.

A new startup looks to combine the primitive elements of earth, water and air into a camping experience unlike any other. The Dookan tent stands up over the ground on short or extended legs, lifting campers for a breezier, more scenic night.

A very different style of hammock tent, the iDome Shelter uses a stout aluminum, steel and carbon frame to hoist up to 1,000 pounds off the ground. It can keep you and a friend lounging blissfully while also holding gear over top the critters below.

Haven Tents launched in 2019 with a Kickstarter campaign for a lightweight hammock tent for the backcountry. Now it's hiked to the front country, introducing the Safari shelter for glamping comfort anywhere from car campsites to the backyard.

If you're an avid camper, there's a good chance that you carry a lot of gear in your pockets, and that you use a hammock. The Hammock Holdall was created for such people, as it provides off-hammock storage for all your awkward stuff.

Two innovators of modern outdoor recreation have come together to create a special-edition camping trailer. Taxa and Kammok load the off-grid micro-camper with hammock gear until it overflows in backcountry comfort.

Four years ago we told you about the TreePod Camper, a fully-enclosed tent that hangs from a tree like a Christmas ornament. The Colorado-based TreePod company is now offering an open-sided alternative, in the form of the Canopy.

If you're the beachy type, you might own a beach blanket, a sun shade, and a couple of hammocks. The Shadeeco system combines all four in one kit, that can be carried in a custom-designed backpack.

We've seen quite a few portable, free-standing hammocks lately, but Pondell's QNUX distinguishes itself in a rather interesting way. The whole thing packs down into a tube-like carrying case, which also serves as part of the hammock.

We've seen tents that set up in a few different ways, but the Swiss Army-like Beluga from Qaou takes it to the next level. It serves six different roles, before even counting its ability to connect with others to create multi-person super-tents.

Kammok thoroughly rethinks its Sunda tent/hammock into the new Sunda 2.0. The 2.0 brings a new integrated fly and external pole system that lets users scoop up the ground tent and strap it to a pair of trees in under a minute.
