Even if you’re not planning on heading to the backcountry anytime soon, the Flexlite Air Chair is a great option for beach days and picnics. At just one pound, the lightweight chair can be easily taken just about anywhere. Its listed weight capacity is 250 pounds, thanks to its durable ripstop nylon construction and aluminum frame.
The chair packs into a carrying bag with a drawstring pouch for easy storage, and when folded up, the chair easily fits in one hand. The hub and pole design is also intended to be easy to set up, and the compact size makes it a great option to stash in your car’s trunk for festival season and road trips.
The available colors are blue, orange, and a patterned green, all of which are discounted. The sale is part of REI’s Anniversary Sale, the outdoor retailer’s biggest savings event, and the discounts run from May 16 until May 26.
