Ultralight Hammock Bushmen Vagabond 15D Micro-Ripstop + Insect Net 520g

Ultralight Hammock Bushmen Vagabond 15D Micro-Ripstop Nylon Integrated Mosquito Net System Olive

Ultralight Hammock Bushmen Vagabond is a comprehensive, integrated sleep system designed for minimalist trekking and wilderness travel where weight and volume are critical factors. This complete set includes a hammock, a high-density mosquito net, and a professional suspension system, weighing a total of only 520g. The main body is constructed from 15D micro-ripstop nylon, providing a technical balance of breathability and tensile strength for a 3m x 1.45m sleeping area. The suspension loops are crafted from UHMWPE (Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene), a high-performance fiber that offers exceptional strength-to-weight ratios and zero water absorption. This material ensures the system remains secure and static under tension without stretching, even in humid conditions.

• ➤ Adjustable ridgeline: Features a unique internal adjustment system that allows the user to tension the mosquito net perfectly from inside the hammock.

Setting up a wild camp along the forested trails of the Gauja National Park in Latvia requires reliable protection against dense insect populations near the riverbanks. The Bushmen Vagabond allows for a rapid setup between trees spaced up to five meters apart using the intuitive tree hugger straps and carabiners. By tensioning the ridgeline from inside the hammock, the user raises the 196 eyelets/cm² mesh to a comfortable height, preventing any contact with the skin. The fine-mesh eyelets ensure that even the smallest biting insects are excluded while the 15D nylon maintains optimal airflow in humid forest environments.
