Not a true lo-chair like the old Lafuma, but the Nash Nomad chair is both light and comfortable and has a built-in carry strap.
They are quite pricey for a basic chair mind.

I'd go for one of the low collapsible chairs. I've got an Avid one not sure whether they still make them. But I believe Solar, fox and korda do something simular. They are extremely low to the ground so you can tuck yourself right under an umbrella. Mines surprisingly comfy and even quite easy to get out of in an hurry. Even at my age.

I have looked at the Korda one I think it's around 50 quid . Some saying it's slightly higher than the rest . Also it has adjustable feet that might be handy.
I don't want a wet arss at end of the day .
But this does seem the way to go for price and lightness .
How comfy is yours ? Good for a full day session

Very comfy oftern find myself drifting of to sleep on mine. Can stretch me legs right out and tilt me head back. I'm 5 ft 9in tall and about 14st and definitely don't get a wet arse in my Avid chair.

The avid super low is just the same as the fox guest and solar undercover chairs of the same type.
I have the solar one, its very low, arse about 2" off the floor, but the small handles help boost you up.
Ideal when sat in the bivvy doorway with the bedchair behind you.
I prefer a low chair so its easier when cooking, reading, etc, and stashes away easily behind the bedchair when it's bedtime.

I also have the Solar Undercover Low Chair, it's pretty decent and comfy. The thing that I like about it is that it will fit in your quiver when folded, leaving your hands free. Pretty cheap too, think mine was £32 from Go Outdoors.

Have a look at the Fox duralite, spot on

Tip for getting any chair low, fold the back legs up, I often do this when I have a nap 💤

The original fox adjustalevel chair is brilliant I've used it for years - light and if you ‘recline' the back you can snooze. I put some 2” foam on the seat between the elastic (now cord) and don't think there's better out there. Unsure if they still sell em.

Another vote for the Duralite.
Lasted well, i also fold the back legs, leave front legs down and pop on my bed chair so I can lean back in bivvy during the day if it's pi—ing down
Spot on
Light, versatile and so far long lived.

Mine was the original Avid chair. Can't remember the name. But if you look on the likes of Amazon you will find something exactly the same with out the Carp tax.
