Key Decision 3: Hammock Material

The material that a hammock is made of determines its look, comfort and durability in particular outdoor environments. Hammocks made from natural fibers such as cotton are often more comfortable while those made from synthetic materials are more weather and mildew resistant. To help make sure you get the most out of your new hammock, choose one that’s suitable for its intended environment.

Rope Hammock – Rope hammocks can help you stay cool in warmer climates because their open weave helps maintain airflow. The rope itself can be made of either natural or synthetic fibers, and thin string can be woven together to create an intricately-woven net for the bed section of a Mayan hammock..
