e > Enhanced aerodynamics with Flat
or Interior Pole Sleeve designs.
f > Excellent ventilation: even in rainy
conditions, condensation is kept to a
minimum by large opposed vents. This
design promotes a chimney effect to
maintain air circulation.
> No-See-Um panels on the
canopy‘s doors adjust from inside the
tent to control ventilation. Careful attention
to design ensures there is no contact
between fly and canopy.
g > Loads of space: unique Exped designs
maximize usable interior space
with steep side walls and large, protected
vestibules. Vestibules provide ample
space for storage and cooking (If cooking
inside the vestibule, always prime
and light stoves at a safe distance from
the tent). Models with dual vestibules
and entrances offer easy access. Doors
are large enough for two people to sit
next to one another.
> Fully waterproof shelters with factory
taped seams, polyester core/cotton
wrap thread, and taped or seamless
bathtub floors.
> Canopies can be unhooked to
increase vestibule space. Loops and
pockets keep the tent tidy.
> Natural, pleasing colors: warm
yellow interiors are pleasant and relaxing,
even when stormy weather
keeps you inside the tent.
Earthy, green color rainflies blend with
nature; or bright terracotta color rainflies
are easily spotted in bad weather
or from a distance.
> Integrity: Keep it simple and
reduce weight - care is taken to use
simple, proven designs and hardware.
Examples include toggle and loop
connectors for fly and canopy, adjustable
pole tension pockets made of
webbing and pole repair sections. Of
course, field repairability goes without
saying!
> Multi-functional and versatile:
The rainfly can be used alone for storage
space or as basic shelter, best in
combination with a tent footprint. The
canopy can be setup on its own as bug
shelter in clear weather. Unhook part of
the canopy to increase the space under
the fly. Numerous zipper sliders allow
doors to be opened in different positions.
designs enable Exped tents to be easily
moved to a new location or to be
cleaned by shaking overhead. Developed
by Exped, the “ridge tunnel tent“
is a new type of structure that combines
a Tunnel design‘s maximum usable
space with the Dome‘s freestanding
capability.
> Easy maintenance:
Tent poles‘ end caps remove easily
to adjust the shock cord in changing
weather conditions or to replace a broken
pole section.
Pole tension pockets are made with
strong, but simple materials (webbing
and a small pole segment). In the event
of a failure, such materials can be repaired
anywhere in the world unlike proprietary
plastic parts that can break at
the worst times and are hard to replace.
All Exped tents include spare parts:
zipper sliders, adhesive patch fabric,
and emergency pole repair segments.
> Easy packing:
The pole segments are short enough to
allow the packed tent to fit square into
most large backpacks and uniform
length pole segments (except the end
sections) mean that taking along just
one segment can address most any repair
situation; side entry packsacks surround
the rolled tent without effort or
strain.
> Accessory bag: Poles, tent pegs
and spares pack into three separate
compartments of the accessory bag.
This ensures that pole and spares stay
clean and away from the muddy pegs.
The accessory bag can be used as
compression roller when folding the
bundle into the packsack.
> Freestanding and spacious:
Most models are either freestanding or
require just a few stakes to ensure that
the tent is not carried off by wind. Such
