With festival season in full flow and British summer doing what it does best, laugh in the face of muddy campsites with this backpack that boasts a built-in chair.

The backpack allows you to carry 47 litres of camping gear, and when you are ready to take the weight off, quickly transforms into a comfortable seat measuring 35 x 27 x 50 cm.

Once you’ve made it to the campsite, don’t settle for life under canvas without a sofa.

Whether your heading to Glastonbury or the local park, the most sought-after outdoor accessory this summer is the Lamzac Hangout – a pop-up sofa that seats two and packs small enough to fit in a shoe bag.

The lightweight inflatable sofa takes only seconds to fill – you simply swing it through the air – and its durable fabric means you can use it year after year.

The Lamzac pop-up sofa is the brainchild of Marijn Oomen, who first presented the idea on a Dutch version of Dragons Den. It will cost around £40 when it goes on sale in May at lamzac.nl
