With a sub-2 pound packed weight, our Free Zip 2P freestanding tent offers simplicity and versatility not found with most other ultralight backpacking tents. It can be pitched with zero stakes and zero guy-lines on lazy calm nights, or anchored down with up to 10 stakes to defeat stormy alpine weather.

The freestanding design allows you to easily conquer difficult terrain like beach sand, snow, granite, tent platforms, and packed down sites where trekking pole style tents are more challenging. Whether you are ultralight backpacking, bikepacking, canoe or kayak packing the Free Zip 2P has you covered.

The Free Zip features a quick, simple to pitch double X frame design which excels in high-wind situations. Best of all, the heavy duty Easton Carbon 6.3 poles fold down to a scant 12" (30.5 cm) allowing them to easily pack with the tent horizontally in small backpacks and bike paniers.

The Free Zip provides the versatility of a freestanding tent with all the benefits of an ultralight shelter made from Dyneema® Composite Fabric. It is truly a go-to tent for just about any backpacking trip.

An optional flat groundsheet is available for added protection here.

Meet your new go-anywhere, do-anything shelter, the Free Zip 3P! Weighing in at just over 2 pounds, the 3P fits three standard width sleeping pads, or two wide pads with wiggle room. On calm, starry nights, pitch it with zero stakes and guy-lines. When the weather's ready to rumble, anchor it down with up to 10 stakes and laugh in the face of storms.

The Free Zip 3P’s freestanding design means you can set up shop just about anywhere. Pitch on beach sand, snow, granite, tent platforms, or those hard-packed sites that make other tents cry. Whether you're ultralight backpacking, bikepacking, or packing for a canoe or kayak adventure, this tent's got your back.

Our double X frame design is a breeze to pitch and stands strong against high winds. The tough-as-nails Easton Carbon 6.3 poles fold down to just 12 inches, so they’ll fit snugly in small backpacks and bike panniers.

Crafted from Dyneema® Composite Fabric, the Free Zip 3P gives you all the ultralight benefits with the versatility of a traditional freestanding tent. It’s the ultimate combo of simplicity and versatility for any backpacking trip.

Want extra protection? Grab an optional flat groundsheet and you're all set!

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 Classic, or Duplex Pro tent into a freestanding ultralight tent for when stakes aren’t an option. Our Flex Kit is perfect for platform camping on the Overland Track or in the White Mountains, or for packed down campsites along the John Muir Trail. The poles fold up short, which is perfect for bike packing and smaller backpacks.

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.

Now available in Ultralight Carbon Fiber, or Aluminum. Both styles have comparable flexibility, durability, and overall performance. Choose Carbon to go as light as possible, or Aluminum for a slightly shorter folded length and more economic option.

*TENT NOT INCLUDED

*The Duplex Flex Kit is only compatible with our Duplex Classic, Duplex Pro, and Duplex Zip tents manufactured in 2016 or later. If you have an older tent please make sure it has 2x rings sewn at each peak or it is not compatible.
