Indeed.

No. The hardware is just a clue into which companies might be redistributing each other's products.

Maybe they ship their overruns with whatever labels they have on hand/extra, so the hardware changes with the overrun.

Or maybe they just have a big grab bin that they get the hardware from.

Or maybe because the people making them don't read English, they put the wrong tags on the wrong hammock.
I have one of these parachute hammocks in blue&green, but I don't remember getting hardware, or who made it. I'll have to go pull it out of my camping bag. I just know it is comfy.

BTW, did you see the size on that Cabela's? It showed 10'6" x 6'6"! Almost sounds like an ENO double.

or any other double hammock.

The product description on Cabela's site says it's a "double".

Yeah, an ENO double is actually 9'10" x 6'8", so not exact. But it is the dimensions of the ATHH from Travel Hammock.

Thanks! I've got some room left on a gift cert. purchase...I think I'll slide a double in to top it off.

I have the cabelas double. From what i can tell its the same as the travel hammock with cabelas stitched on the attached bag. it has S hooks on either end and comes with two sections of some sort of cord which I've ditched in favor of some straps.

I've got limited use with it, but I did use it a couple weeks ago for a week long canoe trip in maine and am very happy with it. I've teamed it up with a ENO bug guard and ENO dry fly.

l1ranger- Where did you canoe in Maine?..

I ordered the Cabelas double...backordered, but should be here in 2 weeks. I've got a set of OWF 1" camo straps and UL descender rings all ready to go.
