Finally – the perfect single ultralight tent for long distance hikers with standard trekking poles. The Plex solo fits perfect for me. A lot of space beyond an above my head when laying down. Easy to get in and out. Super simple to pitch.

The lightest of the light, our Plex Solo is a sub-14oz ultralight tent designed for adventurers who value weight but aren't willing to sacrifice performance or comfort. From thru-hiking to bikepacking to packrafting, the Plex Solo is a spacious one-person tent that allows you to redefine your boundaries and push your limits.

Easily pitching with a single 52" (132 cm) trekking or tent pole, the Plex Solo is well-ventilated and can be set up in even the most cramped camp sites. You won’t find a lighter functional one-person tent anywhere.

An optional flat groundsheet is available for added protection here.

I’ve been using this tent now for over 4 years. We’ve set it up in extreme situations—alpine, windy, heavy slanting rain. It performs excellently in all conditions. Lots of interior space. Highly recommended.

Whether you’re on a thru-hike or just getting the most out of those two weeks away from the cubicle, this tent allows you to put in extra miles without wrecking your body.

The uniquely designed squared off peak gives this lightweight tent extra headroom while still allowing it to pitch easily with a single 48" (122 cm) pole. The ultra-strong titanium peak structure remains in the tent while still allowing it to pack up small.

The Plexamid is well-ventilated and can be set up in even the most cramped camp sites; making it one of the most functional ultralight tents anywhere.

**Our newer Plex Solo Tent has roughly the same amount of space at a lower weight and smaller packed size.

Super light and extremely roomy for a 6'2" person! Sets up very quickly and durably minimalistic! In essence perfect!!

The ideal ultralight tent for hikers up to 6’6”, the Altaplex is the perfect place to wait out the rain on the Appalachian Trail or to recover after a long day of bushwhacking.

Specifically designed for taller backpackers and thru-hikers, this lightweight tent provides ample head and foot room while still easily pitching with a single trekking pole.

A great fit whether you are a triple-crowner or just out for a weekend in the Smokies. This tent is roomy, well-ventilated, packs down small, can be pitched quickly, and can be set up in the tightest of spaces. Tall hikers won’t find a lighter tent with this much space anywhere on the market.

An optional flat groundsheet is available for added protection here.

*If your trekking pole does not extend to at least 56" (142cm) you will need one of our Trekking Pole Jacks, 60" Tent Poles, or our Carbon Fiber Staff to set up this tent.

**Our newer Plex Solo Tent has a similar design, sized for an average height hiker with a 52" trekking pole.

How could you not like this? It’s lighter than plenty of one person shelters, but it’s a palace for one, and easily sleeps two. Setup is easy and it’s overall designed well.  I don’t think I’ve met any user on the AT so far who doesn’t like their Duplex.

The Duplex is lightweight, roomy, well-ventilated, packs down small, pitches easily, and can be set up in the tightest of spaces. You won’t find a lighter functional two person tent anywhere on the market.

An optional flat groundsheet is available for added protection here.

This kit not only does what it should, but it actually (I would argue) does it better than many inherently-freestanding tent models.

Transform your Duplex into a freestanding ultralight tent for when stakes aren’t an option.  Our Flex Kit is perfect for platform camping on the Overland Track, the White Mountains or for packed down campsites along the John Muir Trail.

The Flex Kit is like owning two ultralight tents in one. Simply install the hardware and attach the lightweight Flex poles to your Duplex and you're good to go.

I love this tent, I am 6'4" and really needed a tent with a longer bathtub. Fits me my dog, and my pack and still has space.

Luxurious amount of room for two, but we crammed three guys in for our trip. Comfortable enough for three large men. Once you get used to setting it up, it's a breeze.  It's the best tent I've ever owned.

With a designed inspired by ultralight backpacking and thru-hiking, the lightweight Triplex has a comfortable amount of space for three average-sized hikers or two larger adults with a dog or child.

Last night was a big test for this tent. Storms were coming and winds were going to be in the 20 mph range. Not only did it handle the high winds for over 30 minutes, not one drop of rain came in. Love this tent!
