Designed in partnership with Steve Backshall MBE, a seasoned explorer with years of experience in the world's toughest terrains. Steve's expertise in wilderness products led him to collaborate with us on this amazing hammock. After months of discussions and design refinements, we present the DD Steve Backshall Jungle Hammock - a lightweight, comfortable, and innovative piece perfect for global adventures. The main body of the hammock is crafted from DD's recycled polyester, made from over 200 plastic bottles. This not only helps reduce single - use plastic in the environment but also offers a breathable and comfy experience in warm and humid areas. It features an innovative suspension system. Strong Amsteel (Dyneema cord) loops connect to Daisy Chains via Karabiners. These daisy chains are super quick to set up and have stitched loops for easy adjustment based on tree width and space. A fully bugproof mosquito net, suspended with elastic cord, protects you from biting insects. The head - end has a curved spreader pole for a roomy interior, while omitting it at the foot - end keeps the hammock light and compact during travel without sacrificing comfort. Size: 2.7m x 1.4m (widest). Colour: Teal Blue. Weight: 1050g (Excluding suspension & pole). Includes: DD Steve Backshall Jungle Hammock, 2 x Amsteel Loops, 2 x Karabiners, 2 x Daisy Chains, 1 x Pole, 2 x Elastic Cord. Weight limit: 125Kg. Other features include a simple knotless suspension design, a breathable material for various climates, full mosquito protection, two double - sided zippers for easy access, internal hanging loops for accessories, four internal pockets for small valuables, and a stuff sack.
Using your DD Steve Backshall Jungle Hammock is a breeze. First, find two sturdy trees with an appropriate distance between them. Connect the Amsteel loops to the Daisy Chains using the Karabiners, then attach them to the trees. Adjust the Daisy Chains according to the tree width and your preferred hang. Spread out the hammock and attach the elastic cords to hold the mosquito net in place. You're now ready to relax! When it comes to maintenance, make sure to dry the hammock thoroughly after use, especially if it gets wet. Store it in the provided stuff sack in a cool, dry place. Avoid sharp objects that could damage the fabric or the mosquito net. Also, don't exceed the 125Kg weight limit to ensure your safety and the longevity of the hammock.
