    Default Arb sport camp chairs

    Sierra Expeditions is pleased to pass along the news that ARB has released a new line of camp chairs.


    One of the biggest problems with camping chairs on the market today is that they are built to meet a price point which effectively means they are not built to last. So when ARB started looking for a camp chair, number one on the list of priorities was strength and durability. ARB looked to individually test many chairs and after several months ARB found the design that could stand up to the task. For extra strength and added comfort, ARB specified a chair that had aluminum arm rests and was slightly larger than the standard chairs on the market, but still compact enough to be folded and packed in a carry bag. For extra strength and packability, this chair features locking tabs to keep the chair folded when packed and locked for additional strength when assembled. Satisfied with the strength and durability, ARB is pleased to offer a chair that can stand up to the rigorous demands of our customers.


    FEATURES

    * Made from a durable nylon Oxford weave material with webbing binding
    * Robust alloy frame
    * Extruded aluminum arm rests for comfort and strength
    * Locking catches for added frame strength
    * 260lbs rating
    * Padded seat and back rest for extra warmth and comfort
    * Embroidered ARB Sport logo
    * Drink holder pouch
    * Side pocket with Velcro flap
    * Mesh magazine pocket a back of chair
    * Durable matching carry bag with shoulder strap
    * Built for maximum comfort with minimum space
    * Folds down to 37" L x 11" W x 8" H

    Shipping in late FEB 2010!!!

    Nice price. I may have to pick one up. But I do love my bigger pico chair (don't know the real model name).

    $60 a bit high on the chair, but for quality one is not that bad either.

    Wow, not bad! I was looking at the OZ Tent chairs the other day... nice chairs but a bit more expensive.

    The ARB chair looks very similar, but much cheaper...

    Those chairs look very nice. The thing I don't like about the cheapie chairs is the seating position. These look to have more back support and a better seating position. How do they sit? My old abused back is very discriminating when it comes to camp chairs. I like the looks of these very much. We need a firsthand (or firstbutt) review of these chairs. I'd offer my services as reviewer but I dont rite or spel sew good.

    Hey Wil, can you post up more photos (sides, rear, carrying bag, folded up, in carrying bag, etc.) either here or on your site or both.

    Well, we just bought a new camp chair and it bit the dust on the first trip out. It's going back and maybe we'll pick up one of these. Heck, maybe a pair. Do you know if they come with a warranty that ARB is famous for? Let us know when they arrive.

    How do these compare to the PICO's as far as wgt, space 4 need for storage and such...
    My Picos have broken and I am looking at other options.
