Parallel 43

Parallel 43 Hammocks, suspension systems, tarps and other lightweight backpacking accessories. I’m not a long distance hiker or a gram counter.

As a native Idahoan I have been camping, fishing, and backpacking in Idaho since childhood. I started making my own hammocks and shelters in 2014 and soon had others asking for custom gear of their own. Named after the latitude of my hometown, Parallel 43 was created out of my love for the outdoors and wanting quality gear tailored to my specific needs. My typical trips are multi-day wilderness tr

ips in Idaho. We establish a base camp and explore the area we’re in for a few days. My gear isn’t designed to have the lightest weight possible at any cost. It’s designed to provide simplicity, durability, function and value while keeping in mind that weight is still a very important consideration for all backpackers and outdoors enthusiasts. All gear sold on this site has been designed by me and personally field-tested in the backcountry of Idaho. With the unpredictable weather and remote locations in the Idaho mountains our gear has to work and these designs have proven themselves in the field year after year. I hope you’ll give me a chance to provide you with some gear.

These two quilted Dopp kits will be up for sale on the website tomorrow. I'm working on a new line of accessories made from scraps and repurposed fabrics. These will be the first two available. Because the quilting method is random no two items will ever be the same. Follow

I’ve been working on ways to repurpose scraps of material that are too small to be used alone. Crumb quilting seems to be the way to go. It’s random so every item produced with this method will be unique. This bag is spoken for but I’ll have more offerings in this style on the website soon.
