    Lawson Hammock?

    Is this the same company that makes all the great cord products?

    I am still not convinced of the All-in-one style hammock designs. I even struggle with my Chameleon with the top cover. Not enough ventilation for winter and colder months.
    With designs like this All-in-one you also have the issue of wet gear when getting in and out.

    This may be a cheap option to give it a try though.

    Has anyone tried this one?

    It's Massdrop. You need an account to see anything on there, IIRC.

    My camping buddy has a Lawson hammock. They're not lightweight. I get the sense that the brand name has nothing to do with the cordage of the same name, but I've been wrong plenty.

    No they are not related. The Lawson Blue Ridge Hammock has been around for many many years and is in no way related to Lawson Equipment that has been making cord and other bits for the past 5 or 6??? Years maybe.

    I joined a year or so agoat my brother's recommendation. I bought some titanium stakes, and I browse occasionally. I think there are some great deals, and typically just OK deals. This WBBB is a great deal, if I understand it.

    I've always wanted to see one of these. they seem much more like the tenstile, a basecamp style sleeper, vs a walkabout unit, but I think it'd be neat
