    Comments about REI Mesh Trail Chair:

    I bought this over a year ago and it has held up very well for day hikes, music festivals, and other times when lugging around a fold out chair wasn't ideal.

    Very durable, and I like the vents in the back. Along the sides, the rubber is held down quite well, and has holes to provide a bit more give. This is a plus, over others I have tried out.

    My only gripes are:
    - the hooks, I wish they were a latching system instead of slipping into a hook. They have only slipped out of the hook a few times, and it was rare and not inconvenient.
    - pocket - it would be great to have a small nylon sleeve on the back as a pocket for a drink, or even a wallet.
    - the straps do not tie together, and the handles do not latch either. To remedy this, I use a velcro tie to gather the handles together and another for the sides.

    Make sure you try these out before you purchase. I'm a fit medium sized guy, and this fits perfectly. Others might be a little larger, or more comfy if you have a large torso.

      Comments about REI Mesh Trail Chair:

      While I wouldn't pack this on the trail it has seen ample use while motorcycle touring as well as a base camp chair. Feels wonderful to make it to the end of the trail and have such a comfortable chair to relax in.

        Comments about REI Mesh Trail Chair:

        I have purchased two sets of these chairs - one for me and one for my wife, and all 4 have broken. The metal rods cut through the seams at the edges making the chair fall apart. Will not be buying a third set.

          These chairs have been great at Red Rocks concerts and other outdoor concerts in Colorado. They've kept our backs and seats dry in the pouring rain.
