This King Camp camping chair weighs only 9.3 lbs. and folds compactly for easy trunk (or wagon) storage. The chair comes with either a mesh back for warmer climates or a padded back shown in this picture. Supportive armrests that are padded for comfort, a swivel cup holder more stable than mesh and a side storage compartment for your phone and keys make this a great buy for shorter stints like games or concerts if not for all day festivals or all night drinking around a fire.

Not everybody is willing to spend $300 on a camp chair, but for those of you who are, here's the Yeti Trailhead Collapsible Camp Chair. A beauty and a beast of a camp chair, the Yeti chair owners claim it is the most comfortable, most beautiful and most rewarding of camp chairs to own. They boast long seat times of extreme comfort and generally seem to say: "Yeah, it costs a lot of money but it's a Yeti, it will outlast years of $50 chairs bought every season." The other major drawback besides the price (for us soccer moms struggling to carry all of our crap to the field) is that it weighs 13.3 lbs. making it the heaviest of our compiled list.
