Solestar is a spacious, 1 person tent that offers full protection in a lightweight and
compact package. A unique, rollup fly opens easily to reveal the moon and stars in
clear weather but closes quickly in the event of sudden weather changes.

> Convertible with
a rollup top: with an
inner tent of mosquito
netting, the rainfly rolls
forward to offer a clear
view of the night sky.
If the weather changes,
one cord is pulled for
quick protection without
leaving Solestar!

a > A small package with loads of space: Designed for one adult, but with room for
two, Solestar cuts excess weight. Still, it offers enough space to comfortably
wait out a rainy day, store extra gear, or cook in the vestibule. [If you must
cook inside Solestar, always prime and light stoves at a safe distance from the
tent].
b > Solestar stands taut with just two arches and three stakes. Poles and sleeves
are color coded for guess-free setups. Inner tent and rainfly structures are fixed
at the front to reduce both weight and setup time!
c > Front vestibule wings open wide, and with the fly rolled forward, Solestar
becomes a comfortable, bugfree shelter.
d > Door tucks into a side pocket, opens for improved ventilation, or functions as
an awning when propped with trekking poles. Or, with one side wing opened,
a protected entrance is created.
e > Storm proof: Flat front pole sleeve and rear inner pole minimize wind
resistance. Numerous, reinforced tie down loops increase stability in stormy
weather. In fact, a secured Solestar has withstood a 150 km/h (94 mph) wind
tunnel test.
f > Organization is maintained with an interior laundry line and two storage
pockets.
