I am looking to replace my camp chair. As I am geting older I have picked up a tendancy to dose off in the afternoon when hanging arround camp. Looking for a chair with a headrest. A barcalounger would be the best but too hard to squeez into a 182.

Maybe I should just rig a hamoc under the wing.

Damn......you need a new pair of glasses, too!

The OP was looking for a lounge style chair. This one isn't, but it does fold up smaller than any other similar chair I've seen and is quite well made and comfortable. It folds up to a small suitcase size. A bit pricey on Amazon ($139).

This is exactly what you need/want/must have:



I have one, which I hang from the tie-down ring on my airplane. It is nearly impossible to sit in it for more than 20 minutes without falling asleep. It is incredibly comfortable, lightweight, easy to set up, etc.--all the good things you want while airplane camping. Folded up, it fits in a smallish stuff sack about the same size as a 2 man backpacking tent. Eagles Nest Outfiters, https://www.eaglesnestoutfittersinc.com ... UNGER.html.

Zzz Thanks for posting the REI chair. Wish they were "in store" as there is one about a mile from me.

Question - how do i open GUMP'S "view" ? Anyone is welcome to answer.

6 year old thread. Going strong.

Those hammock chairs are nice all right, but I think by far the best camp chair ever made is the Thermalounger sleeve that a Thermarest fits into and bends it into a chair. Super light and incredibly comfortable. If you're going ultra-light then your sleeping pad does double duty as your chair, and if you're not going that light then your chair becomes a back-up sleeping pad.

They don't last forever, but you can repair them a few times before they need replacement. They're easy to take with you on a day hike if you want to stop and look for game along the way. And they're warm...something lacking in most camp furniture.

I've sat in them for hours at a time while glassing game or drinking rum and lemon-aid under the wing. I've never found a more comfortable or versatile chair, and I've tried most of them.

I saw one of these at my local food market, they now have a small camping gear area, interesting. Three people folder.
