Find out why the teepee is the oldest and most enduring tent design. RX tents are DOD’s most convenient and versatile tents. They combine fast and easy setup, lots of headroom so you can stand up straight inside the tent, and loads of floor space. Two full-sized doors, front and back, and ample vents around the sides and peak keep the fresh air flowing. Available in medium and large.
Polycotton tents and tarps provide a more comfortable camping experience. They breathe to release humidity and insulate to keep in warmth. Polycotton tents and tarps are also durable, have a more natural hand feel, and are quiet in the wind. DOD uses polycotton that is 60-70% polyester, 30-40% cotton.
As a Blend of synthetic and natural fiber, polycotton possesses the best characteristics of both. Synthetic tents and tarps don’t breathe, so they become humid when occupied overnight. And synthetic fabrics tear and melt more easily than natural fabrics. Synthetics have almost no ability to hold warmth. At the other end of the spectrum, all-cotton tents and tarps are comfortable, durable, and hold warmth but are heavy and bulky. They also require treatment to achieve waterproofness. Polycotton tents and tarps are comfortable, durable, waterproof, and hold warmth without being heavy and bulky.
