Out in the wild, where the trail turns quiet and the horizon stretches wide as a promise, gear isn’t just stuff — it’s a lifeline. That’s why at Niya, when we bring a brand into our family, we choose partners who embody both performance and purpose-driven design. Enter Ticket To The Moon, a Bali-born outdoor pioneer that’s been redefining what it means to carry comfort into the wilderness since 1996.
From Bali to the Backcountry: The Story Behind the Brand
What began over 25 years ago in a small Bali workshop has grown into a global community of explorers, nomads, and dreamers. Some brands chase trends. Ticket To The Moon chased a vision: to make gear that doesn’t just survive outdoor life, but enhances it.
Handmade in their own Balinese factory from locally-sourced, high-quality parachute nylon, every hammock, bag and accessory carries the imprint of thoughtful craftsmanship. Each piece is tested under harsh conditions and backed with a 10-year manufacturer’s warranty — because gear that lasts should actually last.
Whether you’re a seasoned backpacker, an overlanding enthusiast, or someone who simply believes an afternoon nap under the sky is the best way to reset — TTTM products are built for that life.
Sustainability Isn’t an Afterthought — It’s a Core Value
This is where Ticket To The Moon truly stands apart. Their approach isn’t “eco-because-it’s-trendy” — it’s rooted in responsibility:
-
They were the first completely PFC-free hammock manufacturer, with materials certified to OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 for skin-friendly, low-impact fabric.
-
Their philosophy of “reduce, reuse, recycle” isn’t marketing copy — it’s operational practice. Leftover fabric from hammock production becomes eco-friendly bags and backpacks, keeping waste out of landfills.
-
From compact travel hammocks to lightweight accessories, every product is designed with longevity in mind — pushing back against the throw-away culture.
For Niya, sustainability isn’t optional, it’s essential. So aligning with a brand whose products don’t just look durable but are built to stay useful resonates with our own ethos.
Fair and Ethical: Gear That Gives Back
More than quality materials and eco-friendly processes, Ticket To The Moon stands for fair trade done right. Their workforce enjoys:
-
Fair wages
-
Social security and pension benefits
-
A stable, respectful working environment — uncommon in many manufacturing spaces.
This isn’t contractual tokenism — it’s community building. Since 1996, not a single team member has left their factory despite outside offers, a testament to the culture they’ve nurtured.
And the mission extends beyond product and factory floors. Through the Ticket To The Moon Foundation, they invest in meaningful development projects that support the Sumbanese Kodi tribe, from education and healthcare to clean water access and infrastructure.
Repairability & Upcycling: Gear You Can Grow With
Wilderness gear shouldn’t be disposable — and TTTM backs that up not just with warranties, but with real practice:
-
Products are made to last, and if materials are left over, they’re repurposed into something valuable and beautiful.
-
Their upcycled collection reimagines surplus fabric into fresh, functional pieces — because in a world drowning in landfill, every bit saved counts.
At Niya, we believe in gear that adapts, evolves, and earns its place in your pack. That’s exactly what TTTM delivers.
