Hennessy Hammock Tent by Ami Kealoha
For serious backpackers or serious loungers, Hennessy Hammock Tents are a well-designed hammock-tent hybrid, providing shade and shelter in a wide range of terrains—from the Amazon to your backyard. Asymmetrical engineering makes for maximum comfort by positioning the body along a diagonal axis. Bug-, wind-, and waterproof, Hennessys also feature an automatic snap closure, the "Perfect Set" curve that keeps backs straight and level, and an anti-tipping design. Available in a variety of sizes and weights from Hennessy or REI.
