When every ounce matters, Chair Zero earns its place in your pack. Purpose-built for ultralight adventures, this award-winning chair delivers real backcountry comfort at a barely-there weight. From alpine bivvies to kayak camps and bikepacking stops, Chair Zero proves you don’t have to sacrifice rest to travel fast and light.

Chair Zero is designed for travelers who obsess over grams but still want a proper seat at the end of the day. Its ultralight DAC aluminum frame and aramid ripstop fabric create an impressive strength-to-weight ratio, giving you dependable support without burdening your pack. The lower seat profile and reinforced corners cradle your body comfortably, even after long days on the move.

For backpackers, paddlers, and bike tourers, packability is everything. Chair Zero collapses down smaller than any other Helinox chair, disappearing easily into tight packs or kayak hatches. Shock-corded poles snap together quickly, so setup is effortless whether you’re racing daylight or settling in after dark.

Built with Helinox’s signature attention to engineering detail, every component is optimized to reduce weight while maintaining durability. Abrasion-resistant aramid ripstop fabric prevents small snags from becoming trip-ending failures, making Chair Zero a reliable companion for demanding, multi-day adventures where gear must perform without compromise.
