I really love mine, I bought the camo one a few years ago and I've wild camped all over the lake District and Scotland in all weather conditions and it has never let me down. There is a bit of condensation inside but I solved it with a lightweight bivvy bag to keep my sleeping bag dry. A great little tent.
@@OutdoorsPatch I went with a highlander bag from military 1st, had it for years and it's never leaked, there are a lot of them on the market though, comes down to personal choice and a lot of trial and error to find the right one.
Fair one. Poly is heavier and but less durable than nylon but has more of an advantage with waterproofing. I’ve never had one but friends of mine have said that they need to keep their’s proofed
@@OutdoorsPatch Heavier, I'm not sure either: mine (X-Mid 1p) weight less that 800g without the stakes... and I never get wet inside the inner wall despite rain and/or wind.
@@eric_festinger the differences are negligible between Ny and Poly. All depends on the design and how much fabric is used. It’s difficult to compare specific designs of tent as they use different materials
About time!!!!!!!! Finally got round to it you jack bastard I’ve been waiting months for this

It’s brilliant. Which bivvy bag did you go with? Half heartedly shopping for one at the moment

Hmmm… my silpoly tent doesn’t absorb water…
