Trail weight and pitched footprint matter more than the season label · review
A 1.8 kg two-person dome in 20D silicone-coated nylon that names its fabric and its frame geometry, and never puts a millimetre figure on either panel.
The bottom line The lightweight choice of this group, and the one whose fabric is best described and whose weatherproofing is least. For fair-weather trekking at 1.8 kg it makes sense; for a week of rain you would want the numbers first.
A double Y-shaped pole structure with a centrally anchored guyline, ventilation windows and a B3 mesh inner aimed at condensation, a forward-opening door described as improving the use of space, a flysheet in 20D silicone-treated nylon with a waterproof coating, and a weight of 1.8 kg.
1.8 kg for two people is the direct result of the fabric choice. 20D nylon is thin — roughly a third of the yarn weight of the 68D polyester elsewhere in this group — and silicone treatment is what keeps it strong at that thinness.
The trade is abrasion. A 20D fly does not like being dragged over gravel or pitched against a thorn, and the tent asks for a little more care in where it goes down.
No hydrostatic head appears for the fly, and none for the floor. On a thin silicone-treated fabric the coating is doing all the weatherproofing, which makes the millimetre figure more load-bearing here than on a heavy weave, not less.
A double Y frame and a mid-panel guyline is a real answer to wind — it stops the long panels drumming and pulling at the pole sleeves. What is not published is how much floor that frame encloses, or how high it stands.
If you already own a silicone-treated fly, check whether the seams arrive taped. Silicone resists tape, and factory sealing is not claimed here.

Silicone is applied into the nylon rather than laid on it, which keeps the fabric strong and light and resists ageing better. It also makes seams harder to tape, which is why silicone flies are often sold seam-sealed by the owner rather than by the factory.
Because thin fabric relies almost entirely on its coating for weatherproofing. On a heavier weave the cloth itself slows water down; at 20D the coating is doing the work, and its millimetre figure is the whole story.
One person · freestanding · aluminium poles · PU 5000 bathtub floor · 1.9 kg unlabelled · 38 × 13 × 13 cm packed
A one-person tent that publishes the figure most listings skip — 5000 mm on the floor — and leaves the flysheet without a water column of its own.
Best for: One person on soft ground who wants a floor figure published and a vestibule for boots and a pack.
≈ £50 / 55 €
Two person · freestanding · 7001 aluminium pole · 20D silicone nylon · 4000 mm + fabric figure · 1.9 kg unlabelled
A freestanding 20D nylon tent that names its pole alloy and gives a 4000 mm figure to the fabric rather than to a panel, so the floor is left without one.
Best for: Two people who camp where pegs may not bite and want a named pole alloy under a 20D fly.
≈ 142 €
Two person · two doors and two vestibules · 68D polyester · 2.5 kg unlabelled · no water column published
A two-door two-person tent that publishes its fabric denier — rare on this shelf — and no water column at all, and whose floor dimension is cut off mid-sentence.
Best for: Two people who want a door each and a thicker 68D fabric, on pitches where rain is a shower rather than a night of it.
≈ £73 / 86 €
