In Depth Review
Its not all about hiking for miles and miles when you are outdoors. A good friend of mine once said something very wise when we were on a 625mile long Thru Hike. ” I like sitting down…..I’m very very good at sitting down’. This Sugoi chair from DOD Outdoors understands my friends ethos.
Ember Resistant and No More Sweaty Bum
Most folding chairs are usually made from a synthetic waterproof fabric which is great for resisting the elements but makes for a rather uncomfortable sit for long periods of time. In the summer these chairs can start to feel a bit ‘damp’ and in the winter they feel cold. The Sugoi chair is the first folding camping chair I’ve tried with breathable cotton instead and for lounging around in your shorts I much prefer it.
How to Set up a DOD Sugoi Chair Easy
The chair unfolds quickly and easily and can be done with one hand. All the poles unfold from their clamps and are guided to the correct holes by internal bungee cord just like setting up a tent with poles. You then simply hang the cotton material chair section on the 4 poles ends.
Comfort
There are 4 different heights that can be adjusted to from an upright position for eating at a table to a low down position for sitting by a fire.
There is also adjustability for the angle of the chair so you can go from an upright position to a laid back sleepy looking at the stars position.
Weight
The chair comes in at around 5lbs so this isn’t a choice for thru hiking but is perfect to leave in your vehicle for all the times you do want a folding chair.
Gripes
It would be nice if the carry case came with a carry shoulder strap.
Verdict
The DOD Sugoi chair is a versatile rugged cotton camp chair that can be varied for its height and sitting angle making it much more comfortable than traditional camping chairs. There are 4 different height possibilities and the chair includes a carrying bag. The breathable cotton construction is resistant to embers from a fire and there are 3 color options.
