Another major change is the height adjustment. Say goodbye to feeling too low to the ground. The new model is 30% taller, providing a more accessible and easy-to-use chair. For those who like their space, the width has been expanded by 2.5 inches too, offering a roomier sitting area, especially beneficial when you're dealing with uneven terrain like sand.

Additional features include an integrated mesh side pocket for keeping your essentials close, such as a headlamp, and a new carry bag featuring a full double zip, plus daisy chain and webbing handle, making it a breeze to pack and transport.
The seat remains breathable, thanks to the 600D polyester material with mesh panels for ventilation, ensuring you stay cool during hot summer days. The Chair One (re) is slightly heavier than its predecessor, but with a weight of just 1kg, it's still extraordinarily lightweight and compact, fitting easily into a pencil case-sized carry bag. Its load capacity has been increased to a whopping 145kg, making it a strong contender for the title of best strength-to-weight ratio in the market.
