    Going with tried and true LL Bean. Which color would you go for if for your DH (fathers day)?

    Green or Brown?
    (The "brown" is brown/tan/olive and deep orange, reverse side is tan)

    Too funny, it's a 7-7 tie. I like green, I think the colors will look nice even if it fades a bit.

    Wow, I think either one is a winner (I didn't vote)! They're both really nice- what a fun present!

    I think the brown one would look better after fading than the green one. I chose brown.

    We've had one of the L.L.Bean quilted hammocks for years now (maybe 8 years? 10?),
    and it was only offered in green (reversible to green/white stripes) when we bought it.

    We haven't had any appreciable fading, as far as I can tell
    (although we do bring it inside at night, and during the work week,
    so it's not outside all year).

    The only downside of this hammock is how comfortable it is...
    once I'm in, I don't want to leave !

    Seriously. I keep checking and the poll goes back and forth and back and forth.

    After much thinking I think DH will like the tan so I'm going for that although I would prefer the green. It's his gift after all

    Thanks all!

    If it's a dark green it could get hot in sunlight. I'd go w/ tan

    ETA just checked the pics and I think both are great! Can't go wrong.
