In 'Which Hammock is Right For You?' we went through the different typesand sizes of hammocks available. In part 2 we are going to look at what is the difference between a cotton and nylon cord hammock.  

The main difference between a cotton and nylon string hammocks is that cotton hammocks are softer and slightly more comfortable. This is due to them having more stretch which allows them to mould more to your body contours.

Make no mistake, nylon hammocks are also very comfortable. However they are slightly firmer and more durable. This makes them better for more constant outdoor use, with kids to travel with it. 

Cotton hammocks have nylon arms however the body of the hammock (part where you lay) is 100% cotton. The nylon arms provide the strength and support required to hold the weight of the hammock when in use.

Both cotton and nylon hammocks across all sizes are available in natural white, single/bi or multi colours. Should you have a particular color preference just contact us and we can arrange for a custom woven hammock to be made for you.
