White Oak Hammock: This formerly local company may have sprouted wings after finding its footing in Cleveland, Tennessee, but its handcrafted hammocks are still the best in the biz. Each custom hammock is made from ripstop nylon for increased durability and equipped with climbing-grade carabiners that can withstand more than 2,000 pounds. Best of all, everything fits neatly in one bag. $100 for standard size; $120 for users over 6 feet tall. – Available at whiteoakhammocks.com.
