Description

Pioulou is a 1 person double wall tent for hikers and travelers looking for a light, simple and comfortable shelter. Designed for people up to 1m85 (6'1") , it allows to sleep, sit and easily change clothes inside the shelter. Its pyramidal form is great for shedding bad weather, and the vestibule is large enough to protect a good amount of gear.

One of the main feature of this tent is the absence of zipper on the rainfly doors : these close by superposition, and are easily opened by two buckles. The tent is therefore lighter, but also more durable as zippers are known to be a weak point on long-term use.

A version with zipper is also available.


Details:

  • Durable fabrics (30D silpoly for rainfly + 70D nylon PU for ground)
  • Seams are factory sealed
  • 6 guylines ensure excellent wind resistance
  • Closure by superposition of two pieces of fabric + adjustable buckles for easy access
  • Zipper option available
  • Can be fully opened for warm nights
  • The door can be kept open without wetting the inner in case of rain
  • Rainfly and inner can be pitched independently (Rainfly pitches first).

Rainfly options

Ultralight fabric : -65g
Changes the standard fabric (silpoly 30D) for an ultralight fabric with high resistance/weight ratio (silnylon 20D sil/sil 2.500mm). Wind and weather resistance remains similar. In wet weather, the silnylon may stretch slightly. This remains insensitive if the rainfly was well tensed from the start. If necessary, increasing the height of the pole by a few cm allows the rainfly to be tightened. Durable, but will require a little more care than 30D silpoly.
