Our Hammocks at Mee Choke Plaza Chiang Mai

Mr. Barry is something like the “Godfather” of our Sitting Hammck. Many years ago, starting from scratch, he, together with our own Peter Schmid developped the new improved design and weaving technique, that make our sitting hammock the best available anywhere.

Now he is back, and selling our hammocks at Mee Choke Plaza untill Sunday December 31, 2011.. But in his usual style, just selling hammocks is not enough for him, Mr. Barrie is also working on a completely new project, namely a whole lineup of new and superbly beautyfull hammock stands, for all those, who untill now had no place to hang their hammock. Here a picture of one of the prototypes. More are on their way……

Comment by happy hammock customer

Below a comment from one of our biggest customers from Canada, namely “Free and Easy Tours” who have been buying hammocks from us since 2001.

Hammocks
Many North Americans (and Europeans) do not know the pleasure that is hammock - our houses aren’t designed for them, our weather makes them unpractical and our lifestyles don’t exactly allow for a lot of “hammock” time. So sometimes when people see our hammocks they think “meh, what am I supposed to do with this thing ?”. Then 2 hours into their first hammock session they are wondering how they ever lived without one and they are figuring out which room back home will allow them to hang it in because they never want to be without hammock again!

The ones we sell are not some shoddy piece of cloth or wiry mesh dealio either. These are the Rolls Royce of hammocks. They are hand woven and are some of the finest hammocks in the world. They fit exactly to your body and are large enough for you to stretch out in any direction and even with another person. So once you have found that cozy position you can commence to “hammocking” as we like to call it. (yes we turned “hammock” into a verb…somebody call Websters) “Hammocking” means swaying and relaxing as hard as possible..the hammock actually transfers you into another dimension of relaxation that you most likely previously had not encountered…it’s like a portal or some sort of futuristic sci-fi device!

Positive Products for Postiive People

To make this hammock situation even better these hammocks have a cool story behind them. You see, all of these hammocks are hand-woven mostly by Thai Lue and Lahu tribes people residing in villages at the Thai-Laos-Burma triangle. Deforestation and rapid development have made it difficult for them to maintain a lifestyle dependent on their natural habitat in the jungles and they have struggled a long time to find a suitable alternative. Now, making these quality hammocks has finally helped them establish financial independence, earning higher than average wages. The project makes alternatives such as tough fieldwork or sweatshop labor unnecessary. Instead it has created a highly-motivated, well-paid and superbly-trained and skilled workforce with the choice of working in a factory setting or from home. Free initial training lasting about 3 months is given, and weavers are paid by the hammock so they can choose to work at their own speed. Indeed, the project has brought them more than a sustainable income, as it assures them proper healthcare and self-pride. They like to call the hammocks - "positive products from and for positive people" - we couldn't agree more!
