Two built-in pillows are a nice place to rest your head,” they said. Generously sized and warm enough for use from spring through to autumn, this bag was rated by our tester for its price and comfort. Also, it is marginally above average, where camp chairs are concerned as far as comfort goes. The Ozark Trail XXL Director chair’s metal frame has an all-business look about it too, which clearly sends the message that this is a go-anywhere chair. Finally, we sent the chairs out to put them to the test on real campgrounds, hikes, and other outdoor events. Testers provide periodic updates to report on the chairs' performances over the course of six months. The Yeti Trailhead Camp Chair is a rock-solid piece of outdoor furniture that'll stay sturdy and supportive even under the toughest conditions. Yeti's Flexgrid fabric is taut and durable with just the right amount of stretch to conform to your body and provide pressure relief where it's most needed. Capacity XXL Director chair is a bit on the heavy side, it lacks any kind of built-in storage, and it’s only offered in two (bright) colors. If you’re looking for something a bit more subdued, that might be a little off-putting to you. We don’t regard any of these as outright deal-breakers, and at least where the storage issue is concerned, there’s an easy DIY fix. In terms of comfort, the Co-op Flexlite Air Chair has the perfect amount of give. It's so small and lightweight to bring around, you can even throw it into a backpack or tote bag. At just 21 ounces, the Alite Monarch was the lightest of the three chairs we tested in this category, as well as the most compact, but its two-legged design required your own legs to serve as the third leg of the stool. You can stow this featherlight, compressible chair in a backpack or even a work bag. Perfect for cold-weather campers or parents sitting on the sidelines for early-spring and late-fall games. It lays back normally farther than a normal chair but it is perfect for me. A folding hammock chair is undoubtedly worth it if you value comfort and relaxation above all else. Also, its included roll tote is much easier to pack than a carrying case. ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. Portable outdoor chairs are also helpful for anyone who doesn’t have the room or budget for permanent backyard furniture. And they can save your back, make it easier to juggle a picnic plate and a cold beverage, and generally help you to relax comfortably outdoors. Walk around any campground or tailgate party, and you’ll notice the popularity of this variety of accordion-style seat. You can pick one up at just about any big-box store (sometimes for as little as $10), order one with your favorite sports team’s logo, or pay a premium for a similar model from Cabela’s or REI. The right armrest has a mug-compatible cup holder, while the left armrest's unique drop-down pocket can be secured with a drawstring to make sure your valuables stay put. The pocket is especially handy for keeping track of your phone or other small items you want to access easily. After six months of use, we love storing this chair in our car trunk for easy access. The included stuff sack has both a handle and a shoulder strap for hands-free carrying. The 4-pound, steel-construction REI chair has an attached carry strap, rather than a carry bag like the other chairs. After a couple of camping trips, we concluded that a strap is more convenient than a bag—quicker and easier for a kid to grab the chair and go, without parental help. It comes in four color options and provides 42 inches of seating space with insulated beverage holders on each side. Metallics is this season’s most show-off trend and we are smitten with this take from AllSaints. The Kacey cowboy boots retain all the classic western details with the pointed toe cap, slight heel and embroidering, while the silver finish brings them bang up to date. Giving them extra kudos from us, we wore these for the first time to a day festival and we didn’t get a single blister. Even though it's light, it still has a 250-pound weight capacity and is made of a durable water-repellent finish to help shed light rain from the fabric. It comes in three colors and has a carrying case you can easily slip in your backpack when it's time to move to the next site. The most affordable option in our round-up of sleeping bags, Outwell’s double sleeping bag is a cosy option for festival season. “Two zips make it easy to share this roomy bag, which can also be opened up into a full-sized double duvet that’s ideal for glamping or for popping in a campervan.
