Beach Chair
Through Focus PDM
Beach lovers see it all the time. A surfboard buried nose-first in the sand, a surfer using it as a backrest. We’ve taken this concept up a notch or two and designed an ergonomic, stylish beach chair that you push into the sand and use the exposed portion as a backrest. It’s easy to set up, lightweight and folds up for transport to and from your vehicle. The Sandshell Beach Chair is the future of beach leisure.
