8 ways to use your hammock (that aren’t, ya know, hammocking)

We love a good hammock sesh (obviously). But we also love all things sustainability. And what’s more sustainable than gear that can be used for lots of different purposes?

Enter: our guide to 8 creative ways to use your Nakie hammock when you’re not taking a solid nap.

While first and foremost we suggest using your hammock for its intended purpose of maxo relaxo – if you’re ever in a bind, you can use your Nakie hammock for all of the below purposes! 

1. Shade cloth: One of the best ways to use your Nakie hammock is as a makeshift shade cloth. No more sunburned noses while you’re out in the bush.
2. Gear storage: When you’re not using your Nakie hammock out in the wild, you can use it in your garage or shed to store lightweight items that you don’t want to gather dust on the floor.
3. Picnic blanket: Nakie hammocks are super soft and comfy, so if you don’t wanna sit on the bare ground for your picnic, you can lay out your hammock instead. It’s comfier than a scratchy old picnic blanket and you won't be picking grass out of it for days.
4. Kids play area: Turn your hammock into a fun kids' play area – whether that’s as a kid’s playmat or a secret jungle hideout nook.
5. Pet bed: Yep, you can use your Nakie hammock as a pet bed! Just hang the hammock low for your dog (or cat tbh) – they’ll love having their own cosy spot to lounge.
6. Clothes drying rack: Need a DIY drying rack while you’re camping? Use your hammock! From clothes to towels to swimmers, your hammock can double as a sturdy drying rack.
7. Privacy screen: Need a bit of privacy when you’re in the great outdoors? Just open up the hammock and voila – privacy screen in the bush.
8. Windbreaker: We love using the Nakie hammock as a bit of a windbreaker because let’s be real, no one likes their campfire smoke blowing in their face.
