As a child, TTTM’s founder, Charly, developed a deep love for hammocks. He would use his father’s old straw nets to tinker hammocks.

During his trip to India, Charly bought polyester fabric, tied both ends to trees, in order to tinker a hammock for protection from insects and dirt. Living the ‘hippy life’ in the West of India, he joined up with other backpackers and created the hammock camping: sometimes there would be more than 30 hammocks hanging from the same tree.

While visiting Bali, Charly discovers a fantastic new fabric: parachute nylon. Soon he starts his quest for the ultimate hammock: one that is easy to bring along, lightweight and quick to pitch. It is in this spirit that the TTTM Parachute Hammock is born. Delivered with an attached pouch for safe-keeping, the nautical ropes and the stainless hooks enable a quick and easy setup and the typical triple interlocked stitching ensures optimal safety. Charly’s revolutionary new hammock design, using breathable, elastic, anti-mildew and resistant material available in vibrant colors, is an instant success. Charly starts selling his product at music festivals, fairs and street markets all over Europe.

After a great initial success at many European music festivals, Charly realizes that his hammock could be something more than just a way to cover the costs of his travels...

These hammocks were meticulously designed using high-quality lightweight nylon materials without compromising on comfort and durability. The Lightest Hammock series quickly gained popularity among outdoor enthusiasts looking for compact and lightweight gear for their adventures. In addition to the Ultralight Hammocks, we expanded our product line to include two new hammock Tarps, the Lightest Tarp and the Fullmoon Tarp – both made out of sil-nylon material. Providing shelter and protection from the elements during camping trips at a minimum weight.

We continued to innovate and improve our products in 2021. We introduced the Home Line Hammocks, designed for those seeking style in the garden and interior but don’t want to sacrifice comfort. The Home Line Hammocks feature an integrated hammock sleeve, providing nautical ropes and carabiners, so that the product is an one stop solution. This hammock was particularly well-received by interior architects, friends of the parks and garden, but also by all our outdoor enthusiasts. Furthermore, we expanded our range of accessories, offering suspension systems, and ridge-line with organizer to enhance the overall hammocking experience. These accessories were meticulously designed to be compatible with our hammocks, ensuring ease of use and durability in various outdoor environments. The year 2021 marked a significant milestone for Ticket to the Moon as we celebrated our 25th anniversary. To commemorate this special occasion, we introduced limited edition hammocks featuring unique designs and special edition prints. These hammocks were a tribute to our journey over the past two decades and the incredible support we received from our loyal customers.

Over the past years, we have been very fortunate. Together with our friends and partners in Sumba, we could drastically improve the local livelihood situation. In fact, things have improved by such a degree that the TTTM Foundation is now coming to an end. We all are tremendously proud of the developments of the project and are now eagerly following our Sumbanese friends' steps and standing by their side with advice upon request. With much excitement, we are now shifting our focus and energies to other selected social and environmental projects that we believe in and who are working towards similar goals to make the world a better place.

In response to the growing demand for sustainable products, we re-launched our Eco-Friendly Bag series with new creations, making the rest material from the home line, the premium material, now also available for the Eco Bags and Backpacks, Sling Bags and so forth. Also, we created the sil-nylon hammock tarps (Lightest and Fullmoon Tarp) now in recycled material, reducing our environmental impact while maintaining the same level of quality and protection from rain and wind.
