Bringing stability to the world, one camping chair at the time

Camping chair is sinking into the sand

Have you got that sinking feeling?

The new generation of camping chairs are very comfortable and lightweight but many of them are known to sink into a soft ground. Sometimes it results in the chair tilting to one side, or even falling backwards when you are trying to sit down. 

That is why we created Chair Buddies, the only removable camping chair feet which can be used with lightweight chairs of many  brands.

Apart from helping to stabilise the chair they also reduce damage on tent groundsheets and grass in parks or your back yard.

Let's talk about weight. And other things too

lightweight chair foot

Seriously lightweight

Each Chair Buddy weighs only 30 grams. Each set of four, including the carry case,  weighs 150 grams. That is just above the weight of two Clif bars!

Removable feet for backpacking chairs

Strong and mud-proof

Chair buddies have a hollow inner space with an internal rib structure which makes them lightweight and highly impact resistant. Between two hard plastic parts we have sandwiched a layer of semi-hard rubber which seals the inside and prevents dirt getting in

Streamlined

The smooth rounded shape attracts less dirt and is designed to be appealing to the eye.

Because of their low profile shape Chair Buddies are easy to pack

No more slipping around

Three rubber circles on the bottom platform provide traction and help stabilize the chair

The carry case

The Chair Buddies carry case is made out of strong 70D Polyester.  Designed to fit inside most camping chair carry bags, it can also be attached to a rucksack by the hook. 

On the inside fabric has a waterproof  PU coating. After opening the poppers you can turn it inside out and clean it

Manufactured in the UK

This product is made in the Great Britain. That means a high quality  and a lower carbon footprint because of shorter travel distances

Very easy to use

S-shaped side connectors allow flexing due to uneven ground, sitter movement, changes in leg angles, while maintaining a secure attachment at all times between the snap  and the platform. S-shaped part was inspired by similar flexible qualities of a modern car's suspension

..pull the snap upwards and connect it to the leg. Done.

Narrow opening in snap accommodates different leg diameters.

Regular Chair Buddies fit 10- 14 mm chair legs. The large version is compatible with 15-19mm diameter legs.

How does it make a difference?

Let's try to sit on snow

After ascending the mount Toubkal in Morocco our tour guide decided to have a well deserved rest.

Oops..

He immediately fell sideways. It was caused by chair legs digging through a layer of snow.

Now we're talking!

We attached Chair buddies to the chair. They fixed the stability problem by keeping the chair firmly on the ground.

Perfect for rainy/muddy campsites!

I now have a total of 6 sets of Chair Buddies (4 regular for BA Skyline/Mica Basin chairs and 2 large BA Big Six chairs). Before finding Chair Buddies, I broke the legs on a camp chair because the ground was wet and the two back legs sank into the ground. I have not had that problem since using Chair Buddies.

I bought Chair Buddies a couple months ago. Since then I have done a couple section hikes on the AT. The Chair Buddies are wonderful in keeping my chair legs from digging into the soft ground and leaving me “in the dirt”.

2nd set in as many weeks

Bought a couple of Chair Zero L from Helinox, only to find that - to my surprise - their own 'ball feet' were not compatible. Decided to try a set of Chair Buddies Large and, to my relief, they work perfectly and a second set purchased without delay. As a regular beach goer and given the often soft and sodden nature of the great British outdoors, they will be much used for swims and hikes. Thumbs up!

Simply Perfect...

I live in Tucson, Arizona and these work great on my Helinox Chair Zero. Perfect for our desert environment and keeps the chair from sinking into the soft soil.

Great piece of kit

I am 6’2 and weigh 20 stone. Before fitting these little beauties, I basically fell through the ground because of the stand feet on my camping chair. Now I am confident this issue has gone away. Great product and thank you for creating it.

We love them!

We bought one set of the black and one set of the red (regular) and they fit our Geartrade chairs perfectly. We have yet to take them to the beach but have tried them on our floor. We are so grateful for them! Fast shipping as well from the UK to Vancouver BC! Just under 2 weeks.
