thewoodrow25 years? that is impressive...how did it hold up on different types of terrain? I have an ultralight sling type chair, but the legs keep sinking into the very soft ground. still works good, but would be nice to be able to stretch out...

RainyHHere on the Western Slope, it is high desert with hard ground, or Sub Alpine. I always use a ground cloth. I believe that has made the difference.

thewoodrowthanks! Yeah, I live in low desert, but backpack up the SoCal mtns. I'm thinking using the snow baskets for the trekking poles, may help more then with just the stoppers, or a couple small squares of canvas....

thewoodrowI know this reply is late, but try and contact Kifaru International, in Wheatridge, CO. This is the company that Patrick Smith created after he sold Mountainsmith. They were still making the original "Field Chair" until recently, so they may have repair parts for yours. Worth a shot to call and talk to Angie or Heath at the shop.

On a side note we drove from the Western slope to the original shop in Golden in the late 80s and met the owner. Back then he was super nice and showed us around. Bought one of the original lumbar packs which I still use, albeit infrequently.
