TRUNKTECH is the new, rugged side of soft that is so finally woven, yet so durable, chances are, you’ll break before it does. Purposefully built and technology driven, TRUNKTECH is stronger, lighter and more compact than any other 11-foot hammock. It offers an unparalleled soft, high-strength, breathable weave made from a proprietary 40D 1.1-ounce Ripstop Nylon. Complete with reflective end-loops, lightweight aluminum carabiners, and stuff sack. TRUNKTECH has the highest weight-to-strength ratio on the market.
- Woven tough: Proprietary 40D, Diamond Ripstop Nylon
- Lightweight: Less than 15 ounces, TrunkTech holds 900 times its own weight and won’t weigh you down
- Ultra-soft: Bed sheet-soft, for the “roughing it” crowd
- Weather-proof: Woven to weather any adventure
- Capacity: Holds up to 500 pounds
- Warranty: If it breaks, we replace it
Having been around since 2001, we are proud to be the pioneers of the Adventure Hammock industry. Since our very first parachute nylon hammock, we have been the leader in innovation when it comes to developing high quality gear that provides high quality comfort. Over the past few years, we have noticed many new players in the Parachute Nylon hammock game, many sacrificing quality for cost. At Grand Trunk, that is not who we are. We strive to make premium gear that will last you a lifetime. Gear that will inspire you, year after year, to get out and enjoy everything this world has to offer. We plan to create a new standard for what hammocks look like.
For a limited time, $10 from each TRUNKTECH purchase will support the Big City Mountaineers and Grand Trunk will donate a hammock for each one sold.
