The Lightest Hiking Chair

No, it’s not the Helinox at around 800 grams ever so comfy as it might be – though I am still using my (approx 160 gram) Big Agnes Cyclone Chair and have been doing so for many years.

I have just seen this interesting idea from the indefatigable Steve at Suluk Gear ie the Puttuck Chair which weighs 64 grams (US$39.99 April 2024). It is based on a Tibetan (Gomthag) Meditation Belt (available at Amazon from US$26) – weight unknown.

I’m sure the DIYers among you could make one up yourself, even using some other piece of gear as dual purpose.

BTW: It is not so light as (either) of my own DIY ultralight chair designs  though it may work better:

Nano Chair 1 – 50 grams

Nano Chair 2 – 56 grams.
