HAMMOCK

✦✦✦✦DAY.Ⅱ


There are various prices, materials and designs on the market. After seeing so many kinds of hammocks, you still don't know how to choose?

What to do? The thoughtful YMOUTDOOR® will relieve you of your troubles! YMOUTDOOR® today with you to organize all at once! Teach you six words secret to choose a good hammock!



Six words, 1 smell, 2 touch, 3 look



PART.01. Smell

✦✦✦✦


Open the package, first smell the smell: the smell of the hammock, straps and other accessories smell.

Normal hammocks, straps and other cotton cloth material, will not have a pungent and unpleasant smell.

But inevitably, some products may be inferior materials, secondary recycled materials made of; or in the process of processing is not handled well, for example: clothing residues of some chemicals.


PART.2.Touch

✦✦✦✦


Common hammock fabrics are the following three kinds.

Cotton: cotton is the traditional material used in the manufacture of hammocks (either rope or fabric), characterized by softness and comfort.

Mesh: ventilated, breathable and quick-drying, ideal for use at the beach, lake or poolside, etc.

Polyester/nylon: lightweight, quick-drying, easy to clean, very durable and fade resistant, and the most common outdoor hammock material. Probably you are more familiar with the names polyester, nylon, parachute cloth.


Cotton hammock weight is relatively large, looks strong, but in fact is not as convenient as parachute cloth hammock, and dirty is not easy to clean, load-bearing than parachute cloth hammock a little worse.

Parachute cloth hammock than the canvas cotton hammock, more lightweight, easy to store, strong load-bearing, easy to clean.

For trekking, hiking, camping and leisure, weight and weight-bearing safety are key considerations, so the hammock of parachute cloth has become the mainstream of the hammock market.


PART.3. Look

✦✦✦✦


"Look" this step, on the examination of 4 product details of the processing.


This is the most critical to judge the safety performance of a hammock!


✦✦ ① Fabric ✦✦

The same material fabric, because the finishing process is different and the quality varies greatly, especially the dyeing process, dye, temperature, fabric quantity, time and other factors must be sufficient to produce high-quality fabrics, any one factor cutting corners will affect the quality.

YMOUTDOOR®'s hammock, are selected high-grade materials, light and breathable with a sense of luster at the same time, touching the sense of thickness is obvious. Skin-friendly and comfortable. Viewed in the sunlight, hammock fabric dense, bright and lustrous.

✦ ② Adjacent button knot ✦

Is the neighboring design reasonable, each opening should have alignment and good craftsmanship.

You force a gentle tug, the thread began to loosen, the safety performance of this hammock is not very good.

It is best to choose the thread tension consistent, parallel line spacing beautiful, tug force will not be easy to loosen the offset.


Ordinary double lane sewing line

YMOUTDOOR® hammock, all using three needle reinforced sewing, functional and durable higher.



✦ ③Rope loop ✦

The rope loop is enlarged and thickened for better relative weight-bearing performance.


YMOUTDOOR® choose to climbing rescue safety fast hanging standard [special webbing ring], 6 intensive hit date point, high load-bearing capacity, greatly enhance the safety performance, use more assured.


✦ ④ Straps ✦

When picking a hammock must pay more attention to the rope at both ends of the hammock, be sure to choose thick enough and strong enough, because the hammock is, after all, to hang in the tree, off the ground, safety first!


Most hammocks include straps with sufficient strength level. Traditional hammock ties, easy to hurt the tree, not easy to adjust the hammock height.


For the sake of the environment, please choose to use a flatter and wider structure of the lashing rope and use a cross-wrap method that takes up more area to prevent the lashing rope from being too thin and sticking into the tree.


YMOUTDOOR® use high-strength polyester ties to upgrade the hammock rope's, heavy-duty polyester fiber + three reinforced stitching + upgraded dense playing dates = high load-bearing, according to the actual product, adjust the adjustment bit, quick adjustment. Outdoor use more convenient.

In addition to the above six-word secret, hammock selection, will also consider the width, length, function, etc.


Function: Anti-mosquito, sun protection, rain protection, etc.



There are two types of hammocks, hammocks with poles and hammocks without poles.


Hammocks with poles are more diverse in functionality, mosquito, sun, rain, etc. With a rod hammock bed surface is more flat, people lying on it is very free to move.

In summer, there are many mosquitoes and insects outdoors, especially when there are many trees. To protect from mosquito bites when resting, choose a hammock with anti-mosquito screen and canopy.


Technology research and development upgrades, with the pole and without the pole two kinds of hammocks, are very convenient to carry, can be stored in a backpack. Outdoor leisure, to achieve the walk ~ ~ everyone can choose according to their needs.


Width: single, double, multi-person


Double hammock is suitable for two people in addition to the use, but also very suitable for the pursuit of spacious and comfortable for one person to use; single double hammock price difference is generally about 2-3 times (to the specific store price tag shall prevail), if the body is thin and consider the case of the budget, you can also choose a single hammock.



Length: at least 60 cm longer than your height



Although not as elaborate as the width, but the length of the hammock in different stores at different price levels still makes a difference. Usually in more than 2 meters, to meet the needs of most ordinary people; if you are particularly tall, it is recommended to choose a length of at least 60 centimeters longer than the height of the hammock.


City hustle and bustle, travel is too difficult. I think it may be more meaningful to go outdoors and find solace and healing in nature than to simply travel. The magnificent and vast valley forests seem so small that our sorrows and grievances can seem to be forgotten.
