Are your stated weights really what they say they are?

We do our best to be as accurate as possible when it comes to weight. Sometimes there can be slight differences. This is due to the nominal variations in weight that we get on the fabric. Not reflecting on the quality of the material, there can be small weight variations due to the coating. In order to give the closest possible weights for each model we take the average weight of ten tents.

The height listed for the inner tent of the Nallo 2 is 40”, isn’t that a bit low?

The inner height of 40” is tall enough for most people to sit up. A tunnel design makes the most out of the height and volume available since you can use nearly all of that height. Many dome or geodesic tents only have a corner or peak as the stated highest point but the actual “useable” height is often lower.

What are the dimensions of your tents when they are packed?

• The figures given below are approximations.

• One can easily get the tent to pack smaller by compressing it and by packing the poles separately.

• The poles break down into sections 17 inches in length. The Atlas poles have a 20 inch length.

• We offer a Sled Pack which allows quick packing of the tent for winter touring by sled or summer canoe trips. This item can be found in the accessories section.
