Description
The Zpacks Duplex tent is designed for two people. Weighing in at just 525 g, it's a popular choice with thru-hikers and light travelers in general.
Unlike its competitors of the same weight, the Zpacks Duplex offers more space. Its 114 cm width allows two Regular-size mattresses (51 or 55 cm wide, depending on the brand) to pass through. As for the 122 cm height, you'll be able to sit comfortably.
To achieve these attractive features, Zpacks uses dyneema. This material is both light and resistant. A floor mat is not necessary to protect it. Dyneema is also hydrophobic and has not been treated with silicone or polyurethane. Even so, it provides an excellent barrier against the rain. Finally, this material is easily repaired with patches in the event of a tear.
The other special feature of the Zpacks Duplex tent concerns pitching. Gone are the heavy, cumbersome and fragile poles, replaced by hiking poles. All you have to do is stretch the canvas on both sides with your poles. It's quick and easy, which is always appreciated after a hard day's work.
The Duplex has two doors and two apses, so your adventure companion won't be in the way when you enter or leave. As it is a single-wall model, it is advisable to ventilate it well to prevent condensation at night. Finally, tent pegs are not supplied. We recommend using a minimum of 8 to tighten the fabric.
The Zpacks Duplex tent is :
- A compact, ultra-lightweight model for 1 or 2 people
- Mesh pockets in the inner chamber for your personal belongings
- 2-year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship
Why is the price on Lyophilise.fr different from that on the Zpacks website?
Orders placed on the Zpacks website are shipped from the USA. In addition to the delivery time, there are additional costs such as customs duties and VAT. An order placed directly on the manufacturer's site therefore translates into 40% extra costs for a buyer in Europe.
The Lyophilise & Co team imports Zpacks products directly from the USA. We include the 40% in our website prices. The advantage of using Lyophilise.fr is that products are in stock, so delivery is fast! You also don't have to worry about customs formalities.
