i have been using hennessey hammocks for almost 5 years
i never thought i would see the day when i would no longer use the hennessey hammock,the tom claytor hammock eliminates the need for under quilts,undersheilds.and even over quilts,it may be alittle heavier but the wieght and high cost of these accessorries really and up,my vote is with tom claytor

Wow no top or bottom insulation needed. If it includes an air conditioner I'm in.

I loved my HH for the last year, but now I am a homemade convert.

Not sure yet. Put your vote in for your location. That way we can include your location in picking a place.

I have wanted to ask this for a while now, so here goes. The Tom Claytor Jungle Hammock is said to be made from "Camouflage waterproof fabric. 100% waterproof and also suitable for snow and winter camping.". I know silnylon can get kinda clammy in dealing with moisture and condesation.

Have you experienced anything like this with the TC hammock? Is the hammock fabric breathable at all?

I can't compare the TC with the HH because I don't own a TC......yet.
