Cocoon Ultralight Hammocks

With the warmer months fully upon us the great outdoors is calling, what isn’t so relaxing is lugging all the gear you need to remain safe and comfortable whilst exploring it. The Cocoon Ultralight Hammock has been designed for travellers, hikers, and campers who want a simple, packable way to relax or sleep outdoors without carrying bulky gear. It focuses on keeping weight low while still offering enough comfort and durability for regular use.

Made from ultralight 20 Denier Hexagonal Ripstop Nylon, the hammock feels surprisingly strong for how compact it is. It packs down to 17 x 7cm which is easily small enough to fit into a backpack, which makes it a great option for anyone trying to keep their kit minimal.

Setting it up is straightforward. It comes with two 12 KN aluminium carabiners and suspension straps, so you can attach it quickly between trees without needing extra equipment. Once it is up, the fabric has a slight stretch that helps create a more comfortable position, rather than feeling too tight or restrictive.

Comfort is better than you might expect from something this light, there is plenty of space. The high tech detachable UHMW-PE cord ridge line creates a constant pitch and allows for a diagonal lay for more natural sleeping position. For short rests, reading, or even an overnight stay in mild conditions, it does the job well.

Ventilation is good thanks to the breathable fabric that allows the air to flow, which helps prevent overheating in warmer weather. At the same time, it is worth noting that in cooler conditions you would likely need an underquilt or extra insulation.

The Cocoon Ultralight Hammock keeps things simple, focusing on portability, ease of use, and comfort. For anyone looking for a lightweight way to rest outdoors without adding bulk to their pack, it is a reliable and practical choice. RRP £68.95
