Perfectly Built for Airstream Life

The Classic Oak Kermit Chair is the ultimate compact, foldable wooden camping chair—ideal for Airstream travel trailers and touring coaches where space and quality matter most. Designed and handcrafted in Tennessee from locally-sourced white oak, this chair features stainless steel and aluminum hardware for strength, and a double-dipped satin polyurethane finish to stand up to life outdoors.

Made in the USA and built with durable 1000-denier coated nylon, the seat fabric is precision-cut with heat to prevent fraying. The Kermit Chair easily disassembles and packs into its own included carrying bag —making it a perfect fit for the limited storage spaces in your Airstream. Or simply fold it up and carry it like a standard camp chair.

With a time-tested design that's gone unchanged for over 40 years, the Kermit Chair offers unbeatable comfort, craftsmanship, and portability—exactly what every Airstreamer needs.


Available in Two Seat Width Options

The Wide Kermit Chair offers the same exceptional craftsmanship as the Original—now with an extra 2" of width for added comfort, measuring 21" from arm to arm. Designed with Airstreamers in mind, it's the perfect blend of durability, portability, and premium comfort for life on the road.

Standard or Taller Seat Heights

For added upper back support, the Kermit Chair is also available in a taller version. The seat height remains the same, but the taller model adds 3" to the seat height, for a total seat height of 15". Perfect for those who prefer a little more support while relaxing at the campsite. 


*the add on leg extensions do not fit on the taller chairs


Optional Embroidery $30

Embroidered chairs will ship out in 2 weeks, not the standard 2 day shipping



About The Kermit Chair Company

Kermit Chair Design
The Kermit Chair was designed in 1984 by a BMW motorcyclist named Kermit Easterling. Kermit wanted a chair that was lightweight and portable enough to carry on his motorcycle, but sturdy and comfortable enough for long nights around the campfire.

None of the chairs on the market satisfied him, so he took matters into his own hands and built a chair himself. Kermit’s friends noticed his chair during camping trips and BMW rallies, and before he knew it, the Kermit Chair was born. Word spread from there, and the Kermit Chair quickly became the premier camping chair for BMW motorcycle riders.

Kermit eventually decided to retire, and in 2003 he passed the company on to longtime Kermit Chair enthusiast and fellow BMW motorcycle rider, Tom Sherrill. Tom sought to carry on the legacy of the original Kermit Chair and, with the help of some highly skilled friends, was able to establish a new production facility outside of his hometown of Nashville, TN. 

Kermit Chair Design

Tom and his family still manufacture the Kermit Chair to the original specifications and high quality standards that Kermit established 40 years ago. Kermit Chair Company takes great pride in our efforts to provide the finest quality and highest comfort possible in any portable camping chair on the market today. 

They now have three family-run facilities in the Nashville area that continue to uphold the Kermit name and provide this timeless design to an ever-growing scene of camping enthusiasts and design-savvy backyard hobbyists alike.
