Single

A lightweight tent built around 15D nylon and aluminium alloy poles, the combination that keeps pack weight down without giving up strength. The floor is rated at 4000 mm, twice the 2000 mm of the outer, which is the right way round: ground water under pressure from your knees and elbows is what actually soaks a sleeping bag. Choose the single at 210 by 200 cm or the double at 210 by 243 cm, and pegs and guylines are included with both.

Why Customers Choose This Product

  • 15D nylon outer, light and packable
  • Aluminium alloy poles
  • 4000 mm floor rating
  • 2000 mm outer rating
  • Single or double size
  • Pegs and guylines included

Product Highlights

Light Where It Counts

15D nylon is genuinely lightweight fabric, the sort used on tents meant to be carried rather than driven to. Paired with aluminium poles it keeps the pack weight sensible.

A Floor Built for Wet Ground

4000 mm on the base is double the outer rating, which is exactly what you want. Pressure from knees and elbows forces ground water through weaker floors long before rain gets through the fly.

Aluminium, Not Fibreglass

Aluminium poles are lighter, more reliable in cold weather, and far less prone to splintering than the fibreglass fitted to budget tents.

Two Sizes

The single gives 210 by 200 cm with 95 cm of height, and the double stretches to 210 by 243 cm at 90 cm. Both leave room for packs alongside you.

Ready to Pitch

Nine pegs and three guylines with the single, eleven pegs and three guylines with the double. Nothing to buy before your first night out.

Important Information

  • A packed weight is not listed in our supplier data, so we cannot confirm how light this tent actually is despite the lightweight fabric. Contact us before ordering if that matters for your trip.
  • 15D nylon is thin by design. Clear sharp stones from the pitch, consider a footprint under the floor, and take care with zips and poles.
  • This tent requires assembly. It is not a pop-up design.
  • Packed size is not listed. Ask us if you need it before committing space in your pack.
  • Use all the supplied pegs and guylines. A lightweight tent depends on tension to hold its shape.
  • Do not use open flames, fuel-burning stoves, or heaters inside the tent.
  • Dry the tent fully before storing it to prevent mould and damage to the coatings.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the single and the double?

The single is 210 by 200 cm with 95 cm of height, and the double is 210 by 243 cm with 90 cm. The double also comes with two extra pegs.

How waterproof is it?

The outer is rated 2000 mm and the floor 4000 mm, so the base is the stronger of the two.

How much does it weigh?

A weight is not given in our supplier data. Contact us and we will chase it for you.

Are pegs and guylines included?

Yes, nine pegs and three guylines with the single, eleven pegs and three guylines with the double.

Is 15D nylon durable enough?

It is light fabric chosen for low pack weight. Clear your pitch of sharp stones and a footprint underneath is a sensible addition.
