Helinox says:
A (re)imagined original: A reimagining of our original Sunset Chair which is now upgraded with (re)Tension Design to set a new standard for outdoor comfort. It sits high off the ground so it’s a breeze getting in and out. Plus the supportive high-back design makes it a must for campers and glampers and picnickers to take just about anywhere.
Enhanced comfort: The Sunset Chair (re) is a redesign of the original Sunset Chair. Its seat is even more comfortable due to the addition of a second tension line within the perimeter of the chair to uniquely distribute weight around the frame.
