DETAILED FEATURES
FABRIC & MATERIALS
75D, 185T polyester fly, offering an upgraded balance of durability and lightweight performance. The enhanced denier count provides increased strength and resistance to wear, while the tightly woven fabric improves water resistance and overall weather protection.
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.
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.
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 point for convinient in-tent lighting.
Interior storage pocket for safe keeping of smaller items.
COMFORT & DURABILITY
One room with vestibule area for added space and storage
Two entrances; front and rear
Two windows both with no-see-um-mesh and storm flaps
Quality zips, ropes and poles; All our tents use heavy-duty coil zips, guy ropes and poles so you can be assured your tent will last for many years of exciting family camping holidays.
Durable PE Floor – A tough, waterproof polyethylene (PE) floor designed to withstand heavy use and keep moisture out for a dry, comfortable camping experience.

REVIEWS
We looked at lots of small tents, and this tent far surpasses others in its category, in terms of quality and price. It is incredibly waterproof and is easy to put up and take down. It has only been on a couple of trips so far, but hopefully will last many more!
