Fishlymade began as a design of a chair that my grandpa had. He used to refer to me as “the fish” and that name stuck throughout the years.. After he passed, I was inspired by the simplicity of the design and wanted make an ode to him by making my own version. Thus made.. Fishlymade.
Handmade in Portland, Oregon
Fishly Made Camp Chairs began with a simple idea: make something useful, well-built, and meant to be used outside. Every chair is designed and handcrafted in Portland, Oregon, using a hands-on process that values quality over speed and function over excess.
From selecting materials to assembling each frame and sewing the fabric, every step happens with intention. We work in small batches, testing designs in real outdoor settings and refining them for comfort, durability, and portability. Our chairs are built to move easily — from beach days and camping trips to backyard hangs — and to hold up through years of use.
Nature plays a big role in how Fishly Made products are designed. Time spent outdoors informs everything from material choices to color palettes, with the goal of creating chairs that feel at home in natural spaces without overpowering them.
Fishly Made is rooted in craftsmanship, simplicity, and a respect for the outdoors. The result is a chair made by hand, built to last, and designed to support slow moments outside.

The design of Fishlymade camp chairs is a blend of functionality, sustainability, and aesthetic appeal. The chairs are handcrafted using durable wood and fabrics from different sources.
Hand Sewn and Built: Every chair is sewn and constructed by hand from various woods, fabrics, and materials.
Water resistant Finish: The chairs feature a water resistant stain finish that enhances the natural beauty of the wood while protecting it from the elements.
Bifold Two-Piece Design: This design allows the chair to cocoon into itself, transforming it into a compact and portable form for easy transportation and storage.
Lightweight and Low-to-the-Ground: The chairs are intentionally designed to be lightweight, making them easy to carry and move around. The low-to-the-ground seating position offers a relaxed and intimate experience, allowing you to feel connected to nature and your surroundings.
