Description
The TX-270 is the ultimate hammock with mosquito net. The bed fabric offers protection against most types of mosquitoes. This model is well-tested in some of the most challenging mosquito environments, including the Amazon rain forest. The TX-270 is the ultimate hammock for tropical environments while providing extra protection from moisture and cold when necessary. Flexible poles and our largest bed create a more spacious feeling and an easier set-up than ever before.
The TX-270 is ideal for warm environments where air circulation is key to comfort. This model is ready to eliminate bugs and moisture while enhancing the air circulation with a netted head and food end. The bed is made from breathable, mosquito-resistant fabric.
The TX-270 features four pockets underneath for storing boots and gear which are placed on the ends of the hammock so that they do not obstruct cooling breezes. Two of these storage compartments are accessed through interior zippers on each side of the hammock so that you can get to your things without letting in mosquitoes. Two compartments are accessed on the exterior of the hammock so that you can easily store things to access without letting bugs into the hammock. The exterior-access pockets are also equipped with cover flaps to keep tropical spiders from descending inside. Two small pockets inside the hammock are handy for storing anything from a flashlight to a pistol. The canopy netting can fold into the foot of the hammock when you want nothing in between you and the stars.
In addition, the TX-270 includes the finest suspension available anywhere including Amsteel slings, Timp-Hitch attachment point installed on the hammock, and adjustable tree protection straps that make suspending your hammock easier and faster than ever. You will stay dry, bug-free and perfectly comfortable in this American-made system.
You will notice the quality of the craftsmanship right way. Each hammock is made in our Lancaster, PA factory from the best materials. Every bed is made from quality fabric that is woven to provide breathability, water repellency and mosquito resistance.

I think this is the best outdoor sleep system on the plant. Now if the z liner would be available it would be perfect.

From the late 1990s on I owned three different Clark hammocks made before Dutchware took over and began manufacturing the brand. One was the Clark made version of the TX-270. This model was Clark’s refinement of past jungle hammock models and for me what I have used on over 200 nights, mainly in subtropic hot and humid conditions filled with aggressive mosquitoes.
Since Dutchware took over manufacture, I have purchased 4 TX-270s (to equip others and have a backup) and one NX-270. Being able to compare the original Clark-made to the Dutchware-made version of TX-270, I can say DW construction quality is as good or better. But where DW really excels is material selection. The included suspension is unbelievably lightweight, compact and easy to adjust. The bed material has been absolutely mosquito proof for me. Pocket access from inside the hammock and mosquito netting is priceless. Internal web handle useful for pulling oneself up and repositioning. The bed dimensions are long and wide enough for many comfortable positions. I am 6’2″ and 185 lbs.
I also have one of DW’s Z-liner Clark underquilts. I rarely need in my area, but it’s like a warm hug when I do and gives a wonderful night’s sleep.
The TX-270 is slightly better ventilated that the NX-270, more mosquito netting in head area.
If I lost most everything and had to go full hobo, I could sleep every night in my TX-270.
Thank you Dutchware for keeping this great design available and manufactured in the USA. I also appreciate your ongoing innovation in material use and suspension and guy line options. You guys rock.
