True Places Emmett
Emmett is an outdoor folding chair made for portable use. The frame is built from 6000 series aluminum, and the seat uses a custom outdoor fabric of polyester and nylon. The folding design reduces sagging and pinching while still allowing a compact folded size. The chair opens in one motion until the arms lock to form a taut seat, and buttons on the armrests release the arms for folding. Bottle openers are placed under both arms, and bag hooks and wide feet are included. A recycled polyester bag allows the chair to be carried over the shoulder.
