What is the Helinox Chair One Highback (re)?
The Chair One Highback (re) is a taller, more supportive version of the classic Chair One. It's designed for outdoor enthusiasts who want extra shoulder and back support, providing the perfect balance of comfort and portability. If you wish to relax at a campsite or enjoy the sunset at the beach, this chair makes it easy.
What is it made of?
This chair features a frame made from repurposed aluminium, giving new life to aluminium scraps that would otherwise go to waste. This approach reduces waste while maintaining the high strength-to-weight ratio that aluminium is known for.
The seat is made of bluesign-certified, recycled 600D polyester, renowned for its excellent durability and ability to endure harsh outdoor conditions, such as UV exposure and abrasion.
Bluesign is an independent certification that guarantees textiles meet the highest environmental and safety standards by eliminating harmful chemicals and optimising resource use throughout production.
Additionally, the seat features mesh panelling that enhances breathability, keeping you cool during warm-weather adventures. As you sit, body heat naturally accumulates, especially in warm conditions, but the open structure of the mesh encourages ventilation. This continuous airflow helps dissipate heat and moisture, preventing the seat from becoming overly warm or sticky.
The chair's frame is constructed from DAC aluminium alloy, a premium material renowned for its strength-to-weight ratio, making it both lightweight and very durable. This high-grade alloy ensures the chair remains robust and reliable, even after repeated use in demanding outdoor environments. Whether you're setting it up on rocky terrain or uneven ground, the chair's sturdy frame can handle the challenges of various adventures. Nylon resin hubs are strategically placed at key joints for added stability, providing a flexible yet supportive connection that enhances the chair's overall structure.
What are its features?
The Chair One Highback (re) has a highback design that gives your shoulders and upper back the extra support they need, making it perfect for longer lounging sessions. Whether sitting by the campfire or watching the sunset, you'll feel the difference in overall comfort.
To make it even better, a second tension line in the seat helps spread your weight evenly so you won't feel like you're sinking into the chair.
The frame is 30% higher than the original Chair One. This small tweak makes a big difference when it comes to getting in and out of the chair, especially after a long hike or a day of adventure.
Plus, the built-in side pocket is a nice touch—perfect for keeping your phone, water bottle, or snacks close by without having to dig through your pack.
When it's time to pack up, the portable, collapsible frame folds into a small, zippered carrying case with a daisy chain and handle, making it super easy to transport.
