Cotton or Polyester?

If comfort is what you're looking for, we recommend a cotton hammock. Cotton will stretch and conform to your body, making this type of hammock one of the most comfortable available. The natural fibers of cotton breathe next to your skin, and cotton is eco-friendly and renewable. Unbleached cotton creates a more natural white hue. Because cotton absorbs moisture, it works especially well in drier climates.

If you're looking for a hammock that will withstand outdoor conditions such as humidity, moisture, and salt water air, we recommend a polyester hammock. The synthetic materials in polyester give it wonderful durability. Polyester fibers retain bright white and other colors. This type of hammock is resistant to harmful UV rays, mold and mildew, and it will last for years.
