Polycotton tents provide a more comfortable camping experience. They breathe to release humidity and insulate to keep in warmth. Polycotton tents 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 mix of synthetic and natural fiber - polycotton possesses the best characteristics of both. Synthetic tents 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 are comfortable, durable, and hold warmth but they are heavy and bulky. They also require treatment to achieve waterproofness. Polycotton tents are comfortable, durable, waterproof, and hold warmth without being heavy and bulky.
Polycotton tarps offer a more comfortable camping experience. They breathe to allow air circulation and are durable, have a more natural hand feel, and are quiet in the wind. DOD uses polycotton composed of 60-70% polyester and 30-40% cotton.
As a blend of synthetic and natural fibers, polycotton combines the best characteristics of both materials. Synthetic fabrics are prone to tearing and melting more easily than natural ones. On the other hand, all-cotton tarps, while durable and quiet, are heavy, bulky, and require regular treatment to maintain waterproofness. Polycotton tarps provide comfort, durability, waterproof qualities, and quietness without the bulkiness or heaviness.
We met some crazy rain and wind last time we used this tent and thank god we had it. You're pretty protected from sudden gusts when you;re in the inner tent because there's the outer tent. Also, there's more room for you to walk around until the weather dies down. Really was a god send.
I love how big it is. There's ample space for sleeping and separately for hanging out. It's easy to set up and take down, and my favorite accessory is the theatre screen. We used it for the first time last trip and the kids loved it. Well worth the cost of both the screen and the cheap battery projector I got at best buy.
I love that there are different chambers so you have a living room and a sleeping chamber. I go camping with my brother and his family so I got an extra inner tent and they sleep on one side and we sleep on the other. Pretty awesome.
Who needs a house when you have this tent? I love it! Highly recommend.
As an avid camper, I've used a lot of tents in my day, but this tent takes the (fish) cake:) The ease of setting it up and the spacious design are perfect for my camping needs. I also love the ability to customize the tent with accessories sold separately. I love that other than the inner tent, it doesn't come with a floor, so you have the convenience of being able to walk in and out without removing shoes. The only downside is that it's pretty expensive but it's pretty unique and high quality. Highly recommended!
