Sometimes, in the outdoors, you just want to hang out.
This contraption — is it a tent or a hammock or a crazy hybrid? — will allow you to do that in style. You hang the hammocky thing, which weighs in at 14 pounds and is made of a cotton/polyester blend, from a sturdy tree and then kick back. Its website says the design was inspired by “the hanging nests of the weaver birds” in Mexico.
Weight limit is 440 pounds, so two people can get cozy. From $340. Order at thegrommet.com.
