What is it about swaying in the breeze that's so blissfully nostalgic of pre-teen years? And why now does the idea of spending an afternoon lolling seem like such a novel (and maybe foreign?) concept?

Well, we're bringing it back.

For a splurge/steal story in our May issue we highlighted these two hanging chairs. The adult-sized chair proved to be l-u-x-u-r-i-o-u-s—as it should for 700 bucks.

The kid-sized version (just $60) proved to kind-of-almost fit the smaller adult staff, but was a hit with some staff's kids (unfortunately no pics of these cuties).

Special thanks to the Sunset staff who had to rough-it on the job: MacKenzie Geidt, Molly Berman & Jeff Prentice.
