Description
A one-person tunnel tent that weighs less than a litre of water. It sits low, it goes up in about a minute with a single pole, and it packs to the size of a forearm — which is the whole point when you are carrying it up a hill rather than lifting it out of a car boot.
Specifications
- Pitched size: 220 × 90 × 50 cm
- Packed size: 40 cm long, 10 cm diameter

- Structure: single-layer tunnel tent
- Flysheet: polyester with PU waterproof coating
- Groundsheet: 210D Oxford with PU waterproof coating
- Pole: high-strength aviation aluminium
- Inner: mosquito mesh
- Sleeps: one
- In the box: tent, pole, pegs, guy ropes, peg bag, pole bag, outer bag
Waterproofing
Both the flysheet and the groundsheet carry a PU waterproof coating, with the heavier 210D Oxford fabric on the floor, where the ground wears it most. Pitch it taut and keep the vent open: a tight fly sheds rain, and moving air is what carries condensation out of a single-skin tent.
Single-layer, and what that means
This is a single-skin tent, not a double-layer one. That is how it gets to 0.85 kg. The trade is condensation: on a cold, still, damp night your breath will settle on the inside of the fabric, and you want the vent open and your sleeping bag not pressed against the wall. If you camp mostly in wet British autumn and want a dry inner tent between you and the fly, buy a double-layer tent instead.
Be honest about the size
This is a bivvy-shaped tent, 50 cm high at the peak. You lie down in it, you do not sit up in it, and there is room for you and a pack alongside — nothing more. If you want to sit up and change clothes, this is the wrong tent.

Finish the system
A shelter is one part of three.
A shelter keeps the wind and rain off, but it does not keep you warm. The bag holds your body heat and the mat stops the ground taking it.

Questions
Before you buy.
What figures does this listing state?
For tents: the fabric and coating of the flysheet and of the floor, the pole material, the packed weight and the pitched dimensions. A tarp has no flysheet, no floor and no poles, so for tarps the listing states the fabric and its coating, the packed weight and the pitched size.
Will it keep me warm on its own?
No — a shelter keeps the wind and the rain off, and that is what it is for. The warmth comes from the bag that holds your body heat and the mat that stops the ground taking it. See the bags →
