Newb here. Never used a hammock. I'm actually looking at the new Warbonnet XL Traveller which is 11 ft as my first purchase for extended hiking trips.
Any idea how durable the single-layer 1.7 Traveller would be with heavy use? (I'm 80 kg) The single-layer is a fair bit lighter than the double-layer, but if the 1.7 SL would have durability problems with prolonged use, I'll have to carry the extra weight with the 1.7 double-layer.
The Single-layer 1.7 is 453 grams and the DL 1.7 is 793 grams. I do a heap of hiking so weight is a factor, but so is durability.
Putting pads in between layers isn't something I'll be doing as I'm only doing warm weather stuff in tropical climates. The double-layer would be purely for durability purposes if I went that way.
I don't mind having to replace a cheaper hammock like this once every couple of years, however I wouldn't want to be only getting a few months life out of whatever I choose. Thanks a lot!
