I’m dreaming of sitting in my SKY chair in spring, looking out at the scenery, sandwich in hand… the economical version of a Dinner in the Sky adventure (see related trends.)
SKY Chair is a family-owned business based in Boulder, Colorado. They’ve been making their original, award-winning hanging chair by hand for more than 25 years. Cotton-canvas treated with paraffin wax is the material used for the chair body. It was chosen for its comfort and durability.
Judging from the YouTube videos, people like spinning in SKY Chairs, but the video above is of a SKY Chair merry-go-round at a renaissance fair. The fairs are a primary marketing venue.
