Hammock Gear Black Friday Sale!

[CamoNut]

Let us know how the brown matches up with the MC. I am thinking of getting a TQ in the brown if it matches up well.

I received my order(#2566) today! I'm really glad I went with the argon brown/multicam. I think they look great together!! THANK YOU, Adam and Jenny and all at Hammock Gear!! I love my new quilts!!

Trappersim, I snapped a couple of pic's, but they really don't look anywhere near as good as they(multicam/argon brown) do in person. BUT, since we all love pic's of gear, here you go...

Oooh, that's what you meant! That must have been a custom order, right? I ordered an UQ in camo and the TQ in brown because everyone raves about how soft the Argon is, but not you're making me wonder if I should try calling them and have them do it like yours if it's not made already. What was the price difference for camo on just the outer and brown on the inner?

Order # 2535 arrived Monday, 16 December (USPS delivery was expected on Saturday).

My first impressions are good. In its stuff sack, my standard size top quilt weighs 17.8 oz.; for comparison, the old Sierra Designs sleeping bag its replacing was 56 oz. I like how well this quilt is made and its design (with snaps that can be opened at the foot). The Argon material is very light and soft, and there is no down floating about, so far.

For now, I've just seen it at night, using indoor lighting. I would say this is a very dark (forest) green -- darker than a cucumber, and as dark as the darkest parts of the green "Hammock Forums" font at the top of any page here. I'm fine with this color, but it is not even close to the light sage green shade shown in this photo from an older post here:

Also, the inside of this top quilt, which I thought had to be black, is instead a tan or light brown color (not the more copper shade of the photo in the link above) -- more similar to the first of CamelNut's photos, in the post above. Again, I'm fine with this as well, but it is not the color I expected.

There was a rumor here about some new Argon colors, but I don't see anything showing colors on the HG website.

In any case, if you are particular about colors, it might be wise to verify (maybe with a fabric sample) exactly what you are going to get before finalizing your order.

My cuben fiber tarp order shipped yesterday...#2554. Looking forward to the indoor set up simulation... tying the tarp to a chair and to a door knob; securing the guylines with something heavy from the kitchen counter. Laying underneath and pretending that I'm in my hammock in Algonquin Park at the end of April. Stop laughing...I know I'm not the only one who does this! Happy Trails, Bones

Burrow 50°
ARGON Green
Extra Long 82"
Wide 55"
Snap closed
Half Taper
2oz Overfill

Since the Burrow 50 page on the HG site does not list estimated weights:
I weighed mine this morning, after sleeping underneath it one night indoors, and for the quilt only without stuffsack, it was 14.0 oz right on the nose.

Yeah, I guess it would be considered custom(because I ask them to make a few changes to their standard offerings) but as far as I know, they will make it anyway you wish. Such is the Customer Service at Hammock Gear!!(Top Notch!!) Whether they use Argon black, brown, green, red, titanium, etc. the cost was the same. The only exception is the Multicam cost extra.

Ha, never mind - just shipped :P

Made me laugh. 2 things, 1) I was imagining what that all would look like and 2) where in my house can I pull it off.

Well done.
