Is there any question about what his favorite trail food is?

Dutch squeezed in a quick midday recharge… right where he belongs in his favorite Hellbender hammock 😄

* Or honestly, just swing by and say hey to Dutch and Phi

That face to face time means everything to us.

There is no "one size fits all" in hammock camping. That’s why we built the Chameleon. Whether you’re running a mesh bug net in the summer or a topcover and Habanero underquilt in the spring, this system evolves with you.

Our History

The makings of DutchWare began in 2003, when our founder, Thom Ressler, also known by his trail name Dutch, thru-hiked the entire 2,200-miles of the Appalachian Trail with a hammock. During his journey, Dutch learned to take a minimalist approach to hiking gear and life in general.

Most commercial vendors, however, didn’t offer hiking gear that shared Dutch’s passion for stripping away anything that wasn’t needed. In response, Dutch started making his own gear. He created hammocks, backpacks, quilts and hardware for the hammock community.

Creating hardware for hammocks was where Dutch found his passion. He began manufacturing the Dutch Clip, which he invented to connect the webbing suspension around the tree. Next was the Dutch Biner, a 10-gram carabiner that connects the whoopie sling, a light and adjustable suspension, to a steel loop, followed by the Dutch Flyz, a no-knot, quick-connection device for hammock tarps.

Dutch’s most recent hammock creation is the full-featured DutchWare Chameleon Hammock, which is a versatile and modular lightweight hammock that adjusts to any location, regardless of where you find yourself.
