DETAILED FEATURES
FABRIC & MATERIALS
150D PU polyester fly for superior durability and weather protection. The higher denier fabric enhances strength and resistance to wear, while the PU coating provides excellent waterproofing and longevity, ensuring reliable performance in harsh conditions.
Double-stitched & seam-sealed for maximum strength, ensuring durability where it matters most. To keep you dry, we also heat-seal the seams with a custom-developed tape, providing superior waterproofing and protection against the elements.
5000mm double-coated aqua rating for superior, long-lasting waterproof protection. The double coating ensures the minimum waterproofness is maintained over time, providing reliable durability even in heavy rain. This fabric has also been treated with a fire-retardent solution.
UPF 50+UV protection for added safety and comfort.
Heavy-duty PE floor fabric for exceptional durability, designed to withstand years of foot traffic.
No-See-Um-Mesh allows for ample air circulation while keeping even the smallest bugs out.
2-way skylight windows with clear PVC for added light and an inner privacy screen for comfort in all conditions.
Darkened, breathable inner for a cooler, darker tent by day and reduced condensation at night, ensuring a more comfortable sleep.
FRAME & STRUCTURE
StructureFlex fibreglass poles are the largest diameter possible relative to the size of the tent. This ensures you get maximum strength at minimum weight. They are also coloured to match the coloured pole sleeves.
Advanced airflow system designed for New Zealand’s temperature extremes. Strategically placed vents maximize airflow during the day and can be closed at night to retain warmth for added comfort.
Pin-and-ring pole attachment – Ensures quick, secure, and hassle-free assembly and dismantling.
Triangle-shaped guy rope tensioners ensure a secure hold and prevent slipping.
Power mesh pole sleeves for easy pole feeding and enhanced durability, preventing tears even if the material is damaged, so you can continue using your tent.
Guy rope attachment for even tension distribution, providing enhanced stability and support.
Shock cords enhance stability and durability by absorbing movement and pressure in windy conditions, reducing the risk of damage while keeping the fly taut to prevent sagging.
SETUP & CONVENIENCE
Speed clips allow for quick and easy setup, with flexibility to move with the wind.
Easy-Grip Zip-Pulls with a finger loop for effortless use, plus a quiet design that reduces noise in windy conditions.
Interior lantern hanging points for convinient in-tent lighting.
Door storage pockets for a tidy and convenient way to stow doors when fully opened.
Handy storage pockets around the door to easily locate items.
Hidden storage pockets are ideal for shoe storage.
Interior storage pockets for safe keeping of smaller items.
