Designed in partnership with Steve Backshall MBE
£134.00
New - Designed in collaboration with Steve Backshall MBE
Steve has been carrying out expeditions in some of the world's most inhospitable places for many years, and is an expert on what kind of products excel in the wilderness.
Steve approached us to design a hammock together, and after months of discussion and refining the design the culmination is the DD Steve Backshall Jungle Hammock: a comfortable, lightweight and innovative hammock that is ready for adventure in any corner of the world.
DD Recycled - Sustainable and comfortable
The hammock's main body is made from DD's Recycled polyster - originating from over 200 plastic bottles. As well as helping to keep single-use plastic from our environment, this material is also comfortable and breathable for use in warm and humid conditions.
Quick & Innovative Suspension
Featuring an innovative suspension system that makes it easy to set up your hammock almost anywhere. Strong Amsteel (Dyneema cord) loops connect via strong DD Hammock - Karabiners to Daisy Chains. These daisy chains are incredibly quick to set up and have loops stitched in along their length, so you can easily adjust your hang depending on the width and space of the trees.
Spacious and bugproof
A fully bugproof mosquito net suspended with elastic cord provides protection against biting insects, so you can sleep without worry wherever you pitch up. The head-end benefits from a full curved spreader pole creating a roomy interior - whilst omitting the pole from the foot-end keeps the whole product light and compact when travelling without compromising comfort.
Combo Deal - Tarp option available!
This hammock is also available as a Combo deal! You can select from this page to include a DD Recycled Tarp 3 in matching Teal Blue, along with 8m of Paracord to act as a ridge-line for set-up.
Not only can you benefit from the spaciousness, breathability and insect-proofing of this comfy hammock, but also full stormproofing too. Be ready for any adventure, anywhere; just like Steve Backshall himself!
