Whether you're pairing it with a tarp for a backwoods camp-out or just slinging it up in the garden, there's nothing like time spent lounging in a hammock. The folk at Ticket to the Moon have been turning out top-quality lightweight hammocks since the 1990s, so they've had plenty of time to refine their craft. This original model is one of the roomiest ones they do, but the super-light parachute nylon and clever construction mean that it still only weighs in at 600g. It's rot-proof, machine washable, and comes with Ticket to the Moon's specially designed 'express bag' that makes it easy-peasy to put up and pack away. Every hammock is handmade at Ticket to the Moon's workshop in Bali, and they're so confident in their designs and quality control that there's an impressive 10-year guarantee on workmanship and materials.
Whether you're a seasoned tree-dweller or just hammock-curious, big-hearted Balinese brand Ticket to the Moon makes the best nylon parachute hammocks out there. Which they should, really, when you consider that these sultans of swing have been in the game since the 90s. Lightweight, quick-drying and machine-washable, their hammocks are handmade to the highest standards.
In fact, the only real trouble with a Ticket to the Moon hammock is persuading yourself to roll out of it and set out on an adventure – but fortunately the speedy S-hook hanging system and specially designed pack sack make it a breeze to take your hammock with you on your travels.
In a world of outsourcing, murky supply chains and exploitative manufacturing processes, Ticket to the Moon’s approach is refreshingly straightforward. All their stuff is designed and produced in-house at their Bali HQ – where the folk making your hammocks get good salaries, decent working hours and pensions, plus a cut of the annual profits. And it must be a pretty sweet place to work because they reckon no-one's handed in their notice since 1996. Materials are locally sourced and often reclaimed or upcycled, while for more than 15 years they've also been funding a foundation that works with indigenous Sumbanese Kodi people in Indonesia to help improve their living conditions and resilience. All of which is nice to think about as you swing gently from side-to-side in the sunshine.
