It all started between two trees.
Two mates, one simple idea, and a lot of time spent outside.
How it started
A better way to enjoy the view.
Twill Outdoors was started by two mates, Tom and Will. The name is theirs too: Tom + Will = Twill.
Tom was working in an office 12 storeys above Auckland, looking out at a view he couldn't get any closer to. He wanted a simpler, more personal way to enjoy the outdoors, and after plenty of ideas he kept coming back to a classic Kiwi favourite: the hammock.
Will had worked alongside plenty of Kiwi brands, showing off their products in some of New Zealand's most beautiful spots. He wanted to build a brand with its roots in those same landscapes.
The founders
Tom and Will
Tom brought the idea: a hammock that made it easy to get outside and enjoy the view. Will brought an eye for the places that make one worth carrying.
They've since moved on to new adventures, but the idea they started is still at the heart of everything we make, and we're grateful to them for it.

Twill Outdoors today
Still all about time outside.
The brand has grown, but the idea hasn't changed. A hammock is just the excuse. The point is the hour you spend lying back, looking up at the trees.
Freedom
It packs small and goes anywhere: the backyard, the beach, the bach or the bush.
Simplicity
Two straps, two carabiners, one hammock. No frame, no knots, and after your first go it's up in about a minute.
Connection
Less screen, more sky. Time outside, on your own or with the people you love.
Made to last, and backed by our Lifetime Warranty.
Easy to use even if you don't spend alot of time outdoors!
I am by no means an outdoor person, but this hammock is so easy to use. I just set it up in my backyard around home and read all day. or when my family goes camping I find my own spot to hang it up.
