DD Frontline Hammock 850g Double Layer Mosquito Net All Season

DD Frontline Hammock 850g Double Layer Mosquito Net UK Wild Camping Bushcraft

The DD Hammocks Frontline Hammock weighs 850g and provides all season camping comfort with built in ultra fine mosquito net. This 2.7m x 1.4m double layer hammock accommodates users up to 6ft 5" and 125kg, making it the most popular choice for UK hammock camping adventures across Scottish Highlands, Welsh valleys, and UK woodland.

The double layer construction allows sleeping mats or underblanket insertion for winter camping, while the breathable design keeps you cool in summer. The ultra fine mosquito net protects against Scottish midges and insects, with flexible setup options including zipped closed, rolled back, or hammock flipped for open lounging.

DD Frontline Hammock 850g Weight Double Layer Construction Winter Insulation

The 850g weight includes the hammock, built in mosquito net, 60cm spreader poles, and elastic cord. This makes the Frontline Hammock heavier than the DD Superlight Frontline Hammock (620g single layer) but provides the double layer construction that accommodates insulation for cold weather camping in Scottish Highlands and UK mountains.

The double layer design separates into a breathable base layer and top layer with velcro closure. Insert a partially inflated sleeping mat between layers for added insulation, or attach an underblanket using the 4 corner tabs for comprehensive underside warmth in winter conditions down to minus 5°C.

DD Frontline Hammock 2.7m x 1.4m Size Comfortable Users Up To 6ft 5"

The 2.7m x 1.4m dimensions accommodate users up to 6ft 5" (196cm) comfortably. This standard size works for most adults, providing adequate length for diagonal sleeping position that creates a flatter lay compared to lying straight along the hammock length.

For taller users or those wanting extra space, the DD Frontline Hammock King Size measures 3.2m x 1.7m and weighs 1250g. For children, the DD Junior Frontline Hammock at 1.9m x 1.1m suits users up to 4ft (120cm).

DD Frontline Hammock Built In Mosquito Net Ultra Fine Mesh Scottish Midges

The permanently attached mosquito net uses ultra fine mesh that blocks Scottish midges, mosquitoes, and small insects. The net suspends on two 60cm spreader poles with elastic cord, creating interior space that prevents the mesh from touching your face during sleep.

The mosquito net features double sided zippers for easy entry from either side. Zip the net fully closed for complete bug protection during Scottish Highland camping, roll it back and secure on the spreader poles for open lounging, or flip the entire hammock upside down to lie on the netting side for an open setup without removing the net.

DD Frontline Hammock 125kg Weight Capacity Ripstop Nylon Construction

The 125kg (19.7 stone) weight capacity accommodates most adults safely. The ripstop nylon construction prevents small tears from spreading, important for long term durability during regular wild camping and bushcraft activities. The fabric withstands regular packing and unpacking without degrading, making it suitable for frequent camping trips across UK terrain.

The DD Recycled Frontline Hammock uses the same 2.7m x 1.4m dimensions and 125kg capacity but constructs the main body from approximately 258 recycled plastic bottles, weighing 910g compared to the standard 850g.
