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.
The Chameleon Hammock’s production and development was supported through Kickstarter by more than 730 backers. The project raised more than $190,000, handily exceeding its original $22,500 goal. The increased funds allowed DutchWare to create accessories and a hex tarp for the hammock, as well as a wide-body version of the Chameleon Hammock.
