INTERIOR SPACE
Until the X-Mid Pro 1, if you wanted a 1 person tent with a similar weight, you had to settle for something cramped or lacking in weather protection. The X-Mid Pro 1 changes that. It provides a spacious interior with more headroom, shoulder room, and interior volume than any other 1P trekking pole tent. The generous 229 cm / 90″ floor length combined with steep end walls also provides best in class usable length with the ability to accommodate users up to 203cm / 6’8″ tall, and a 81 cm / 32″ wide floor area provides plenty of room for even the widest of pads with room to spare.
FEATURES
More than just a spacious tent, the X-Mid Pro 1 also provides a robust shelter for harsh conditions. Unlike other tents near the 500g, the X-Mid Pro 1 doesn’t trim away the lower part of the fly for weight savings but instead has a full coverage fly to block drafts and rain splatter while also having the option of raising it higher.
Other features found in the X-Mid Pro 1 are peak vents (important to minimize condensation) and zippered doorways (blocks drafts, increases structural integrity).
X-Mid Pro 1 features ultra strong and highly waterproof Dyneema® composite fabric, dual protected doorways that keep rain off the floor even when open, an abrasion resistant woven floor or DCF floor, and multiple guyout points for up to 12 stakes around the base plus peak guylines and side panel guylines can be attached for stormy conditions.
What hasn’t been overlooked is the user friendliness and simplicity that the X-Mid tents are known for. The X-Mid design was formed in tough real world conditions where you need a shelter that just works and this elegant simplicity continues in the X-Mid Pro 1. That includes an ultra simple 4 stake pitch, magnetic door toggles for one handed operation, doorways that aren’t blocked by poles, large vestibules that put the main area beside the doorway instead of blocking it, a tensioned floor that lies taut and wrinkle free, one handed operating zippers, and dual interior pockets.
The X-Mid Pro 1 also packs smaller than any other 1P DCF tent at just 10 x 30 cm / 4″ x 12″ and thanks to the absence of poles and struts it packs short enough to store horizontally in your pack.
