Description
This is a 1-inch UHMWPE and polypropylene mixed webbing which is what gives it the cool look. We’ve designed this webbing to be a lighter weight (5.5 grams per foot) alternative to regular polyester webbing but still work with buckles unlike Kevlar webbing. This is a great middle ground when it comes to webbings. The key features of this webbing are that it weighs less than polyester webbing, has very low stretch and it works perfect with cinch buckles, spiders, Dutch buckles, etc.
Tree straps have one 3.5-inch loop on one side and the other end is cut straight and melted. They can be used for the marlin spike hitch, the Dutch Buckle and cinch buckles.
Specs:
Rated by the manufacturer up to 1500lb breaking strength.
Weighs 5.5 grams per foot
*Sold in pairs*

These feel so light after the cheap daisy chains that came with my first hammock and they take up less than half the space in the same stuff sack. I don’t even bother to roll them before I stuff them in.
I got these straps because I wanted to mess around with a marlin spike hitch for more adjustability and I didn’t want to tie one with a bulky strap. The spider 1.5s are a little pricey for me to basically try out a knot (and I’m not a backpacker, I’m a camper who likes to pack like a backpacker, making UL not worth the big price jump). The black and white pattern on these straps looks cool and the weight difference is already so different than what I had before, and because of those things I love these straps. They were well worth the price. Whether or not I like the marlin spike hitch remains to be seen! I do wish I had gotten the 15″ although I probably will never need anything that long.

If the sew on dutch clip option is selected, are the clips sewn on by you prior to shipping or do I sew them?

I have these with the sewn in clip, and have been using them for a couple of weeks. Basically, the straps and clips do their jobs so well they might go unnoticed- simple, practical, light; all that.

Hi Micah,
That is exactly how they will come. If you prefer something removeable, then choose the Dutch Clip instead of the Sew-On Dutch Clip. – Gwendolyn

Do they need to be sewn or singed after you trim them?

Yes, that is best to prevent fraying.

Do these get “ropey” and need flattening like UWHMPE straps? Or does the poly help prevent that?

These straps keep their shape very well, similar to polyester straps.

Overall I’ve been very happy with these hammock straps. They’re incredibly easy to set up and adjust. I did recently have to replace them after only a couple of years of use, though. After setting up my hammock, I got in it to try it out to make sure it was in a good position and suddenly fell to the ground. The edge of one of the straps had sheared off so that the clip wouldn’t tighten in that spot. Fortunately, I was able to adjust the clips so that they were in a different part of the straps and still use the hammock. I don’t know if I didn’t have the clips quite locked in to prevent sliding or if the strap was weak in that area, but I was disappointed to have to replace them after only a couple of years. I’m sure it was just a fluke, though, so bought another pair and don’t expect a problem.
