Rinse with fresh water after the beach and let it air dry before folding. Wipe the beechwood armrests with a damp cloth now and then. No bleach. The recycled ocean bound plastic fabric is built for sun and salt, so a quick rinse is all it needs.

the details
every piece, the same promise.
recycled ocean bound plastic
Every piece is made from plastic pulled before it reached the sea.
built for salt & sand
Rust-proof frames, quick-dry fabric, sand that shakes right off.
packs down, carries easy
Folds flat, clips together, slips onto your back for the walk down.
designed in newport beach
Drawn for the days we actually spend on our own coast.
The chair we made because the one we had wouldn't stop letting us down: rusted frames, sagging seats, fabric gone by August. So we built the one we actually wanted, right down to a seat spun from plastic pulled out of the ocean's path.
the system
The chair carries the rest.
Look at the side panel. Those rows of webbing are MOLLE loops, borrowed from gear that has to work in the field. They turn the chair into a platform.
Clip on a pouch for your water bottle, your sunscreen, your keys, your phone. The chair carries the rest, so your hands stay free for the cooler and the kids.

the materials
Three things we will not compromise on.
material 01
Recycled ocean bound plastic
The seat fabric starts as bottles intercepted before they reach the water. Soft enough for a long sit, tough enough for sun and salt.
material 02
Beechwood armrests
Solid beechwood, warm under your forearm, ages well. Not the plastic ones that go chalky in a season.
material 03
Aluminum frame, rust-proof
Aluminum bones instead of steel, so the salt air doesn't win. Light to carry, rated to 250 lbs.
the carry
Seven and a half pounds. Hands-free. Straps built in.
Padded backpack straps mean you can sling it on and walk a quarter mile of sand without thinking about it. Seven and a half pounds total, including the detachable pillow. Folds flat, slides into the trunk next to the towels.
