Handmade by Charly "It all began ten years ago, on the beautiful island of Bali, Indonesia. While traveling with my girlfriend, we slept exclusively in traditional hammocks and, though they were comfortable, unfortunately they were heavy, hard to pack, somewhat fragile and difficult to clean. For all those reasons and many more, I decided to design a more practical type of hammock made from nylon and silk parachute material. "Once I created the prototype, I realized just how comfortable, compact and easy to use this new hammock was. My first thought was simply to create a new type of hammock that my friends and I could enjoy. However, over the years my design has gained popularity and a devoted following. Try one and you'll soon realize just how great they are! "Since then I have developed other compact and portable products that are ideal for traveling such as hammock chairs, children's chairs and an indoor soft Frisbee. People often ask 'who is the right person for the hammock?' The answer is simple all people from all walks of life, men, women and children alike!"
